Digidesign Releases D-fx Effects Plug-Ins

September 26, 1997 -- Digidesign announced today the release of D-fx^TM, a package of AudioSuite^TM Plug-Ins for Pro Tools® 4.0 software. D-fx includes an AudioSuite version of D-Verb, their highly respected reverb Plug-In, and Chorus, Flanger, Multi-Tap Delay and Ping-Pong Delay effects. D-fx is the perfect companion to any Audiomedia^TM or Pro Tools Project^TM system running Pro Tools 4.0 Software. As it is an AudioSuite package, D-fx can also be used with Pro Tools PowerMix^TM (Pro Tools stand-alone Software running on a Power PC^TM-based Macintosh).

The AudioSuite Plug-In specification developed by Digidesign provides a file-based processing alternative to the real-time processing capabilities of TDM-based Pro Tools III systems. AudioSuite Plug-ins such as D-fx are not hardware dependent (TDM Plug-Ins utilize the Pro Tools DSP Farm hardware card), so they may be used interchangeably on any of Digidesign's PowerPC-compatible audio systems running the Pro Tools 4.0 software or host-based Pro Tools PowerMix^TM.

Available now at a suggested US list price of just $249.00, D-fx offers the perfect balance between functionality and affordability. Andy Cook, D-fx Product Manager remarks, "D-fx offers an ideal array of time-domain effects to complement any system running Pro Tools 4.0 software. In particular, D-fx gives these customers access to D-Verb, a TDM Plug-In that has become virtually mandatory among Pro Tools III users." He adds, "We expect that Pro Tools III customers will also find D-fx attractive, as its file-based processing allows them to reserve DSP power for their real-time TDM effects."
