BBE Sonic Maximizer DirectX Plug-in
Now AvailableCakewalk to be exclusive online distributor
June 1, 2001Cakewalk and BBE Sound, makers of
the award-winning BBE Sonic Maximizer processing hardware, have announced an
agreement in which Cakewalk will be the exclusive online distributor of the
BBE Sonic Maximizer DirectX Plug-in.
The BBE Sonic Maximizer plug-in,
created by BBE in collaboration with audio software developer Virsonix, is
now available exclusively as a download from the Cakewalk web site at
www.cakewalk.com. The new Sonic Maximizer plug-in can be used with
Cakewalk's new SONAR(tm) digital multitrack recording software, as well as
with any other DirectX-compatible host application.
The Sonic Maximizer, known for restoring "live presence" to recorded music,
has become a mainstay in professional recording studios the world-over.
- Highs are clearer, naturally brilliant and more finely detailed. Lows are
tight, well-defined and harmonically rich.
- Guitars are "brought out of the mud" with clarity, definition, and
harmonic complexity.
- Keyboards and synthesizers take on new realism. Percussive and plucked
sounds are clear and sharp, chords are rich and full-textured, and each note
in the chord retains its integrity.
- Electric & acoustic basses take on a rich, earthy "CD" sound. Five string
players particularly appreciate what it does to the "B" string. It achieves
an extremely tight, punchy bottom-end with all the presence, clarity and
bite of the top end.
- Vocals cut through amplified instruments so they can be better heard.
Lyrics of the song are no longer "buried in the mix."
- BBE sound processing brings out the full spectrum of sound, and expands
the spatial dimension of stereo reverb and chorus.
The Sonic Maximizer DirectX Plug-in is now available as a download for $129
U.S.; registered Cakewalk customers can purchase the Sonic Maximizer
download for $99 U.S. For more information or to download the BBE Sonic
Maximizer, visit www.cakewalk.com.
