January 26, 2002

BIAS, Inc. has announced that its multi-effects control environment, Vbox, will soon support both Mac OS X and Windows operating systems, as well as Mac OS 9. BIAS Vbox 1.1 for Windows marks the company's first product release for the Windows platform; Vbox 1.1 for Mac OS X is among the first audio products for Apple's newest operating system. BIAS Vbox (previously available for Mac OS 9 only) is a graphic control environment for VST plug-ins that offers extensive creative control. With its ability to combine, repatch, and mix multiple VST plug-in effects - up to hundreds of simultaneous plug-ins per channel - millions of unique sonic combinations are possible. And since it's compatible with a huge range of commercial, shareware, and freeware VST plug-ins, no other effects processing program is more flexible, compatible, and powerful. Vbox integrates into any VST host program - including BIAS Peak, BIAS Deck, Steinberg Cubase, Steinberg Nuendo, Emagic Logic, and others - for realtime effects processing. Vbox also works as a free-standing application that can process and save audio files - or even record, process, and save a live feed. A host of additional features make Vbox the virtual effects box of choice for most any professional audio project, including creative sound effects design, mastering, DJ'ing, live performance, audio post-production, and radio production. BIAS Vbox for Windows supports Windows 98 SE, Windows 2000, and Windows XP. "We're thrilled to offer our first pro audio product to the Windows community," said Steve Berkley, CEO and President of BIAS, Inc. "With so many VST plug-ins now available for the PC, along with VST host programs like Steinberg Cubase and Nuendo, Vbox is certain to be a 'must-have' for many Windows-based audio professionals and musicians." Vbox for Mac OS X is the latest product in the company's line to be ported to OS X. Vbox for Mac OS X is fully Carbonized, and will run under either Mac OS X or OS 9. Vbox SE - identical to Vbox, except for the latter's free-standing capability - is also Carbonized, and has been fully integrated within Peak 3, BIAS' award-winning editing/processing/mastering application. Vbox SE will also be bundled free with Deck 3.5, BIAS' multitrack digital audio workstation program. Pricing and Availability BIAS Vbox for Mac OS X will be available Q1 2002 for a suggested retail price of US $99. (Vbox SE for OS X is bundled free with BIAS Peak 3 and BIAS Deck 3.5.) Vbox for Windows will ship soon thereafter, and will have a SRP of US $99. Both products are available through the worldwide network of authorized BIAS dealers and distributors.
