Teaboy Audio is proud to announce that they have just released the first version of the Teaboy software/service. For the first time ever, engineers and producers don't have to reply on tedious pencil and paper to document their equipment settings. It can now be done in the digital realm simply using a laptop and an internet connection. Instead of pencil and paper you get real pictures of gear to interact with for much higher precision. And because it's digital, you no longer have to start each documentation project from scratch like you do using Pencil and paper! Create templates and use Copy/Paste functions. This power tool saves hours of valuable time and money.

Teaboy Basic – The Basic subscription lets you use the Teaboy service for an unlimited period of time. You can load as much gear as

NuGen Audio has just updated its audio analysis tool Visualizer to version 1.8.

This new version introduces the ability to set independent ballistics, peak and colour settings for the primary and secondary level meters. An intermittent problem affecting the accuracy of time averaging view Snapshot data has also been fixed.

12DECODE offers a system exclusive based sound editors for Waldorf's MicroWave Synthesizers. There is an editor for the original MicroWave (aka MicroWave I, with software version 2.0 installed) and an editor for the MicroWave II (including the XT line).

"The sound generating architecture of the MicroWave II is very similar to the MicroWave I, except the different concept with the "modulation matrix" and the possibility to change many parameters simply by control change messages and by turning the little knobs manually, so system exclusive programming may not be so important.

Nevertheless, I think it is always a nice feature to get control over the wave control tables, because these nitty gritty 8-bit samples are that, what makes these old synthesizers finally unique.

Another main feature that has been build into version 4.0 was the library centered sound program design. While it is nice to edit any parameter of a sound, it is even more practical to have an overview of all available sounds and also be able to save/restore them at any time."

Slip-N-Slide by Intelligent Devices is a unique frequency domain audio morpher/mangler. It offers several different frequency domain effects, each with a significant amount of control over the effected as well as uneffected portions of the sound and each affording either a little or a lot of "ra n do m n e s s ."

With Slip-N-Slide you can create almost anything from shimmering, temporally rigid, spectral tremolos to slurred speech, to quirky, reverse-gate sounding effects, to new ambiances to continuously new rhythmic and sonic artifact riddled accents. The combination of spectral processing with controllable randomization is very powerful.

Features :

• Modify existing sounds or to create whole new sounds from existing material.
• Create patterned or random slides of the spectral content, create a spectral sample and hold
• Pluck out individual components from complex sounds.
• Or mix and match.

Slip-N-Slide is available now for both Mac OS X and Windows in VST format at a price of $79. Note that audio examples are available at :

Univers-Sons/ Ultimate Sound Bank introduces a brand new UVI Soundpack called Upright Grand Piano. Here is the official press release :

"Once again, we are glad to introduce a new beautiful sounding piano, this 5 GB library brings up a strong upright piano full of personality and musicality.

After the successful launch of the UVI SoundPack Acoustic Grand Piano and UVI SoundPack Baby Grand Piano, the number one request of our customers was to have a very good Upright Piano, that would be used a lot these days in modern Rock, Pop and even Jazz music.

To find a good sounding upright piano was not an easy task, so we did look over several models and several places, until we found the one that delighted our team, and to be honest: we love it. A modern and high-end version from the manufacturer Seiler was unanimously picked to be the one. As you can hear in the demos, it sounds really close, warm and musical.

As for all our sounds, we did use extremely good microphones, excellent sounding mic pre and insanely good analog to digital converters. Every single note was carefully multi-
