Primacoustic has announced the Stratus, an attractive 'above-console' acoustic cloud intended to absorb unwanted early reflections, flutter echo and control resonance in the critical mix position.
Designed to be quickly constructed on site, the Stratus comes as a complete kit with a 2" thick, 24" x 48" high-density 6lb per cubic foot acoustic fiberglass panel that is encapsulated in a micromesh and then resin treated around the edges. The panel is then covered in an acoustically transparent fabric. Two light-weight aluminum outer rails are bridged together with 'L' shaped beams and the device is suspended using wire above the console. Stratus clouds are meant to be clustered in groups to span the width of the console to create 'cloud formations' and angled to vary the air space between ...

Puremagnetik has released Clapbox, a free add-on pack for Ableton Live 7. Clapbox is a sample-based Live Pack directly modeled after the Simmons Electronics Clap Trap. Puremagnetik has meticulously sampled every parameter of the original to deliver an accurate recreation of this 1980's classic. To further the authenticity of the original Clap Trap, Puremagnetik has intuitively programmed these sounds in four dimensions across Ableton's Sampler delivering realistic control of parameters such as pitch and amplitude envelope.
Clapbox is available for download at :
