MAPP Mirror Software: Mirror Loudspeakers Across a Specified Line in an Existing MAPP XML

In June I wrote a piece of software that will take all of the loudspeakers in a MAPP XML file and mirror them across a line.

To use, just open the MAPP Mirror application, select the original XML, and go through the options.

It’s written in Python, but I’ve created standalone versions for both Mac and PC.
