Celemony Software has announced version 2.1 of their audio recording software, which now also supports the DXi interface under Windows XP, as well as being optimized for Macintosh OS 10.3 and Apple's new G5 computer.
Via the DXi interface, users too can now enjoy Melodyne's breathtaking features: the ability to edit and modify audio data as effortlessly as if it were MIDI, make corrections of pitch, whether subtle or dramatic, derive complex harmonies from simple melodies, modify entire phrases and reshape audio recordings creatively in other ways they would never have thought possible.
The quality of the pitch correction has been improved for minor modifications ( 50 cents), while the analysis and melody detection functions now operate at 48 kHz as they do 44.1 kHz. In addition, navigation and operation have been optimized, file I/O expanded through the addition of new formats (including 32-bit AIFF) and both MTC synchronization and the support for AudioUnit, VST and ASIO improved.
The Update to Version 2.1 for Windows and Mac is free for registered Melodyne users and will be available for download from www.celemony.com on 29th December.
Melodyne runs under Mac OS X and Windows XP and is currently offered in two versions: the Studio Edition offers an unlimited number of virtual tracks, 32-bit/192kHz support and stereo editing. The smaller cre8 offers the same sound quality, 8 tracks and audio quality up to a maximum of 24 bits and 48 kHz.
