It seems the spatialisation of Events that use a scatter is lost once the signal had passed through the transceiver plugin. Is there any way to maintain the spatial properties?

Thanks

Managed to resolve this - It was simple. All I needed to do was change the channel input on the 'receiver Event to stereo (right click on meter). Seems to default to mono for some reason.

Yes, the transceiver does not force output to a certain channel count when set to receiver mode. I’ve added a note to our tracker to look into this for a future release, thanks for bringing it to our attention.
