Sonic Studio Ships PreMaster CD Premastering Software
March 5, 2006
Sonic Studio, LLC today announced the release of their newest premastering application, PreMaster CD. First shown at the 119th Convention of the Audio Engineering Society in New York City, the product is now shipping to distribution worldwide.
PreMaster CD is a simplified version of Sonic Studio's professional premastering application, SonicStudio•DDP. PreMaster CD combines ease of use with low cost, and it runs natively on the secure and user friendly Mac OS X. The application combines Sonic Studio's famed editing capabilities with the NGC™ interface and SSE™ real time audio engine.
PreMaster CD addresses the lack of high end premastering functionality in products aimed at a general audience. Rather than disguising low fidelity with a "pro" name, PreMaster CD focuses on professionally addressing the poorly understood task of premastering with the same marking engine found in Sonic Studio's more comprehensive products. An improved user interface makes the arcane task of PQ and CD Text definition even easier than prior products.
For final replication, PreMaster CD relies on the same format as our professional products, the DDP or Disc Description Protocol. PreMaster CD creates DDP version 2 file sets, along with "CD refs." These CD-DA-formatted recordable Compact Discs are created in the background, so as to not tie up a costly workstation.
PreMaster CD carries an MSRP of $795 and is available now both online at Sonic Studio's web store and through an international network of distributors and channel partners who share Sonic Studio's commitment to quality and service. For more information, visit their web site at www.sonicstudio.com.
