IK Multimedia to Bring Its Entire Suite to the BeOS

January 28, 1999 -- IK Multimedia is proud to announce the porting of its innovative music software and sounds to the new BeOS operating system. Included are two new software applications that bring powerful, studio-quality music production tools to any Be user.

GrooveMaker is the revolutionary software and looping package that allows any user to produce professional dance tracks in a snap. Random-combination technology allows the user to surf literally millions of groove combinations on-the-fly, without stopping the music. With just a few clicks, tons of professional sounding tracks (copyright-clean and royalty-free) are ready to be exported for music or multimedia use. For more information, visit www.groovemaker.com.

T-RackS is the first and only software dedicated entirely to audio mastering. It offers a complete post processing workstation with analog-modeled circuitry in each of its three discrete processors. Its outstanding performance is the result of sophisticated physical modeling algorithms. A killer-tool for any studio, T-RackS includes a state-of-the-art six band parametric equalizer, a classic mastering stereo tube compressor/leveler and a multiband master stereo limiter.

"IK tools will find a perfect environment in a powerful multimedia oriented operating system like BeOS developed with an outsider approach. Having friendly, workstation performances on any desktop will contribute to get the most out from our powerful software with great advantages for the users" said Enrico Iori, CEO, IK Multimedia

"IK's tools will find a home with home musicians and studio engineers alike. Their fabulous sounding algorithms combined with simple, clean interfaces will perfectly complement the BeOS. We think IK Multimedia will be someone to watch in audio on the BeOS," said Timothy Self, Vice President of Developer Relations, Be Incorporated.
