Free Audio Analyzer Gains Pro Tools Support, More
 December 17, 2003Elemental Audio Systems has announced version 1.2 of its audio analysis plug-in, Inspector. The new version adds Digidesign RTAS support, an enhanced user interface design, automation support, and new spectral display modes.
Now, Digidesign Pro Tools users can utilize Inspector's alarms to be notified of adverse conditions in their audio. Inspector is available as a FREE download from the Elemental Audio Systems web site and supports the following plug-in formats: RTAS (MacOS X and Win XP), Audio Unit (MacOS X) and VST (MacOS X, Windows).
Inspector is a compact analysis tool with integrated spectral analysis and metering. New in version 1.2, users may configure the spectrum to display peak or average and may choose from a fast or slow decay rate. Inspector's configurable peak and RMS meters allow users to set the caution and warning zones to suit their needs. Real-time numeric readouts keep users informed about the state of their audio - from clipping incidents to headroom and balance. When user specified thresholds for these parameters are crossed, Inspector's Master Alarm is triggered. Version 1.2 also features improved graphics performance and improved Audio Unit support.
Inspector supports sample rates up to 192kHz and is MacOS X Panther (10.3) compatible. The MacOS 9, 1.1 version, remains available for download from the Elemental Audio Systems web site.
