Steinberg has announced its
latest Studio Case product. Studio Case Plus combines
the company's Studio Case music software package with
its VSL 2020 PCI audio card. This limited edition
package is now available for Windows 2000 and Windows XP.
Steinberg's Studio Case Plus is a comprehensive all-
round music-making package: music production
software (Cubase SE), combined with five virtual
instruments and the VSL 2020 audio card.
Available for Windows 2000 and Windows XP, Studio Case
Plus is an open, expandable music creation system. Not
only can all software be upgraded to more complex
versions, but the audio hardware can be extended with
the addition of analog/digital converters to increase
the number of input and output channels for recording
and monitoring.
With a host of features based on Steinberg's Cubase SX, Cubase SE
gives enthusiasts and newcomers to digital music
production the tools they need to start making music on
their home computers.
Studio Case Plus offers five fantastic-sounding VST
instruments, including The Grand SE, D'cota SE, Virtual
Guitarist Electric Edition SE, Groove Agent SE and
HALion SE.
The VSL 2020 is a 24-bit/96 kHz
audio card with both analog and digital inputs and
outputs. Low latency ASIO 2 drivers allow the
audio buffers to be reduced to only 32 samples, a
latency of less than a millisecond. On top of the
available MIDI input and output, up to 20
I/O channels can be used simultaneously when demands
grow. The dual ADAT interface provides 16 inputs and
16 outputs and can be connected to any ADAT compatible
converter box, digital mixers or other outboard
equipment.
Studio Case Plus is available at a suggested retail price of 370.00 Euro excluding VAT.
