Since 1998 the ATK has existed in a variety of forms.
In its very first implementation, the ATK was deployed as a collection of Csound(external link) orchestras.
The first publicly presented work created with the ATK is Joseph Anderson’s(external link) Standing Waves at Christchurch, Spitalfields(external link), a sound installation commissioned by the Society for the Promotion of New Music(external link) for exhibition during London’s 1998 Spitalfields Festival(external link).
Development of the real-time ATK library for SuperCollider2(external link) began in 2000.
Anderson’s(external link) Pacific Slope(external link) is the first publicly exhibited work to result, and was first performed in 2002 at the Transparent Tape Music Festival 2(external link) in Berkeley, California. (See also this review(external link) of the premiere.)
From 2007, an implementation for the Common Lisp Music(external link) synthesis and signal processing package has been under development.
In its most recently available form, the ATK has been implemented and installed(external link) as a collection of VST plug-ins(external link).
The SuperCollider3 version of the ATK is now available.
The port of Ambisonic Toolkit to a set of JSFX plugins for Reaper started in 2012.
Following the SuperCollider3(external link) library release, we anticipate a number of further implementations:
- An AudioUnit(external link) library
- Standalone applications
- Python(external link) Library... in development
