Celemony Software GmbH releases version 1.1 of its professional recording restoration software Capstan. Starting from the analysis of just one audio file, the new version makes it possible to remove identical wow and flutter from an unlimited number of additional audio files. At the same time, the introduction of a rental model brings Capstan 1.1 within the budgets even of home studios.

Capstan 1.1 is now capable of transferring the correction of wow and flutter from a mono or stereo file to additional files, thereby removing identical wow and flutter from multi-channel or multi-track recordings. This new feature is seamlessly integrated into the Capstan interface and there is absolutely no limitation on the number of files that can be repaired in this way.

Zero-G and Xfonic present LUMINOSO Live Violin Phrases Performed by Martin and Kate Richardson, two world-class violinists from the Liverpool Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and recorded in Liverpool's famous Parr Street studios, Luminoso: Live Phrases is a 15GB collection of thousands of live recorded 6-bar looped phrases compressed down to 7GB using Kontakt's lossless compression technology.

Despite recording only two players, the instrument cleverly layers up to 6 different bars in real-time for the effective sound of a 12-piece string section, or if you wish, you can dial it down to the sound of a solo violin.

An unprecedented gift to TimeFactor users, Dave Kilminster, lead guitarist for Roger Water's The Wall, and previously Dark Side of the Moon Live, has generously provided Eventide with the presets from Roger Water's The Wall Live which are now included in new TimeFactor units and free for current users.
