Originally developed for TC’s flagship System 6000 high definition processor, UnWrap facilitates smooth and fast stereo to 5.1 up-conversions when there is no time to do a conventional 5.1 mix or multitrack source material is non-existent. The UnWrap plug-in for Pro Tools|HD Accel retails at EUR 1250 ex. VAT. The Mac version of UnWrap is Universal Binary.

The default presets include the capability to time-align all channels at sample precision, widen or narrow the image, control the amount of center and LFE channels to be used, as well as change filters and envelopes. All preset parameters are fully editable. With double-precision processing, UnWrap is capable of running at any sample rate between 44.1 and 96 kHz.
