NUGEN Audio has released Halo Vision v1.2, adding peak frequency readouts, real-time cursor analysis and a freeze-frame function to its immersive audio analysis plugin.
If you’re working in immersive audio, having a reliable visual companion during mixing and mastering isn’t a luxury, but a necessity. NUGEN Audio has updated Halo Vision to version 1.2, and the additions are squarely aimed at giving engineers faster, more precise insight into complex sessions.
For those unfamiliar, Halo Vision is a real-time, customisable audio analysis suite that covers up to 7.1.2 channels. The existing toolset already includes a Correlation Matrix, Correlation Web, Spectrum, Frequency Haze, Location Haze and per-channel True Peak metering. Version 1.2 builds on that foundation with three targeted additions.

The frequency graph now displays the exact dB level and frequency of peak points directly within the display. This makes tracking down a problematic resonance or feedback tone mid-session considerably faster — no more guessing where the spike is sitting.
Alongside that, real-time readouts now follow the mouse cursor across the frequency graph, giving precise numerical feedback at any point. Whether you’re checking notch filter behaviour, verifying a cutoff frequency or isolating something unusual, the information is right there without breaking your concentration.
The third addition is a freeze function that pauses all visual activity across Halo Vision’s modules simultaneously. Transient events and fleeting anomalies that are difficult to catch in real time can now be captured and examined properly, saving a lot of head-scratching in practice.
As Freddy Vinehill-Cliffe, Product Specialist at NUGEN Audio, explains: “With v1.2, we have expanded on this capability with targeted enhancements that streamline troubleshooting and speed up decision-making in complex sessions.”
Halo Vision v1.2 is available now as a free update from NUGEN Audio.
