Fraunhofer IIS has announced the availability of MP3 Surround Evaluation Software 1.0 for Mac OS X. MP3 Surround supports high-quality multi-channel sound at bit rates comparable to those currently used to encode stereo MP3 material, resulting in files half the size of common compressed surround formats. At the same time, the new format offers complete backward compatibility to any existing MP3 software and hardware devices. MP3 Surround was developed by Fraunhofer IIS in collaboration with Agere Systems. Using a psychoacoustic technique called binaural cue coding, MP3 Surround captures the spatial image information of multi-channel sound.
The evaluation period of the MP3 Surround encoder will expire on the 31st of December 2005.

I3 has just updated its two track audio editor DSP-Quattro to version 2.0.1. This new release features new PlayList command 'Set All Pauses To", the AU plug-in name does not include the vendor name when displaying it on the Effx Send Mixer, a new settable parameter on the preference dialog for the default 'pause' value for newly created PlayList tracks. It also fixes a problem with Waves, Sony and some others AU plug-ins, appearing greyed out in 2.0, and fixes a problem with the Drag&Drop to the finder under MacOS 8/9.| DSP Quattro 2.0.1 | Post a comment ? |
