Misc : Source-Zip: Zip audio sessions for faster, easier collaboration - macmusicSource Elements announces the release of Source-Zip for Mac OSX.

Source-Zip allows for audio projects to be compressed, then easily uncompressed, using lossy or lossless codecs for easy and quicker delivery via the Internet. It is useful for file collaboration, archiving, and final delivery of projects and is 100% automatic and transparent to any audio workstation including Pro Tools.

Source-Zip solves a specific problem: you need to send your audio session to another location, but you don't have the time or bandwidth it takes to send such a large file. Until now, you couldn't just zip audio files using the zip software that is built into your computer, because audio files contain complex data that does not respond to standard 'zip' compression.

Audio Hardware : Heil Sound unveils the PR 48 Kick Drum microphone - macmusicHeil Sound has introduced the PR 48 large diaphragm dynamic microphone designed for kick drum use.

The PR 48 features a 1.5-inch diameter element, and is mounted in a vulcanized double shock mount, which offers complete isolation within a rugged cast metal housing. The PR 48 metal housing was designed with a slanted entrance to the 3 pin XLR so the cable assembly is easier to connect. A specially designed low pass filter sets the -3 dB hinge points at 30Hz and 8kHz with a +10 dB peak from 50 Hz to 80 Hz. The response rolls off at 8kHz, which helps control unwanted top end "noise" inside the drum, while keeping frequencies critical to kick drum harmonics found when the beater meets the drum head. The microphone provides a 600-ohm balanced output and can handle over 150 dB of SPL.

The PR 48 is available now at a price of $220.
