Ueberschall announces the release of Club Toolz. Each sound, of the over 2GB assortment of material, has been individually processed, branded with a tempo and key signature.

Full mixes can be assembled completely from scratch with this engine alone.

With this sample library you can create your own club tracks within the various House and Techno styles such as :

. Deep Tech
. Electro
. Tribal
. Minimal
. Maximal
. Oizo-ish
. Progressive

Club Toolz has an MSRP of $119 / €99 / £69. The included Elastik Players is available for Mac OS X and Windows in AU, VST and RTAS plug-in formats. To hear a demo go to :

Audio Ease has updated Speakerphone to v2.0.1.

Fixes :

• Importing SP1 settings in Nuendo & Cubase works correctly now
• Fixed bug in preset browser: a single click opens the user section.
• Importing Speaker & Room IR Automation data works correctly now (a speaker selection bug in Speakerphone 2.0.0 prevented some Speakerphone 1 sessions to come up with the wrong speaker selected. The bug is fixed, but the consequence is that sessions made with speakerphone 2 may load with the incorrect speaker selected, so please double check which speaker is selected in the speaker module.)

Let me introduce you to Tank-FX, a non-virtual effect device. The reverb is generated by a huge [11m] tank made of ferroconcrete. Some mics and speakers have been put in it and connected to a unix box, so everybody can use it now from the internet.

To try it out, just upload some audio material. It will be processed in real-time. Check it out !
