Bx_hybrid is a revolutionary new 11-band EQ system that Brainworx have designed for mixing and mastering purposes. Its internal high-resolution filter algorithms and some unique and innovative features make this an "engineer's weapon". bx_hybrid is a set of 2 EQs, MONO and STERO versions of the same basic EQ concept (Mod 1.0 & Mod 2.0).

Brainworx chose the name "hybrid" for 2 reasons: although being a LEFT / RIGHT EQ the stereo version (Mod 2.0) bx_hybrid has some internal M/S features, and although being an EQ that has to be set manually it has many AUTO features that will help you finding the perfect EQ setting fast and convenient. They are already working on the concept of a surround version as well (Mod 5.1) which will not be an update but a separate product and released later. The ...

Here is the January 10th, 2008 issue of DP Corner from audioMIDI.com. A column
for tips, tricks, and other fun stuff related to Digital Performer. Written
by Tim Rumbaugh.

DP or Logic Pro 8? Why Not Both? Picking a DAW is one of the most personal
decisions a computer-based musician can make. Read through the forum for
any DAW and you'll see that most musicians are absolutely set in their ways
as a user of "the one and only DAW" and all other musicians should be whipped
a thousand times with a wet noodle for even contemplating using another.
This week Tim will look at ways to incorporate the best features of Logic
Pro 8 with DP, giving you the best of both worlds.

Here it is, the first review of 2008: WOW, the multimode filter made by Sugar Bytes.
Words, pictures and sounds.
You'll find everything in our review to form your opinion on WOW.

SE Electronics have announced that they are producing a brand new range of Rupert Neve signature series mics under the sE stable for 2008.
(picture is Rupert Neve and Siwei Zou)

The first of several mics will be an active Ribbon mic with revolutionary performance, provided by discrete circuits and purpose designed transformers by Mr. Rupert Neve.
The capsule and manufacturing are being controlled by sE, whilst the electronics, and of course the transformer, are being taken care of by Mr. Neve.

Following mics will be a large diaphragm tube mic, and a solid state condenser. "The first three mics " say sE "are beautiful, the packaging will be second to none, and their performance will set new standards in the high end microphone market".

Will this new range of products be the next big hit ?
And isn't "high end" often synonymous with "high prices" ?
At least, this is a very exciting announce.
