Dear friends,
Today we are proud to announce that we have partnered with our friends at BBE Sound to bring you the hottest deal ever proposed on BBE software. Moreover we will be running through July an EXCLUSIVE offer on the brand new Sonic Sweet 3.0 “Optimised” that now includes 3 newly “Optimised” plug-ins and a brand new bass enhancer (Mach 3 Bass) within the bundle.
From today through-out July 31, the new BBE Sonic Sweet “Optimised” will be sold at the incredible price of ONLY $69 (MSRP $149). Those of you who own the previous version from now on labeled “Legacy” can upgrade for the ridiculous price of ONLY $29 !!!
Please DOWNLOAD and try the new BBE Sonic Sweet “Optimised”.
This new version makes the legendary BBE Sound available to broadcast, producers and musicians for all their recordings. Sonic Sweet “Optimised” has been completely re-worked from the ground up to be compatible with AAX and Pro Tools 11 as well as the Audio Units, RTAS and VST formats. The bundle has also been fully tested for the latest operating systems, both for Mac OS 10.10 (Yosemite) and Windows 8.
The BBE Sonic Sweet “Optimised” is a complete rewrite of the plug-ins included in the original “Sonic Sweet” plug-ins bundle. Designed to make your mixes clearer and louder like its forerunner, it adds a new fourth plug-in to the collection, the Mach 3 Bass. At the heart of the bundle there is still the software version of BBE’s famous Sonic Maximiser hardware range, which is an emulation of their exclusive processing technologies that has set the benchmark for sound enhancement. World-renowned musicians have insisted upon using BBE Sound professional audio processors since they were first introduced in the ’80s.
BBE’s Sonic Sweet “Optimised” will add clarity to the top end and fatness to the bottom, just like their famous hardware processors do without the “fizz” or digital “sizzle” common to most other sonic enhancers. The refinements brought by this new “Optimised” version extends to a new optimised GUI and AAX Native support for ProTools as well as improved controls for fine-tuning your sound.
*Because Sonic Sweet “Optimised” was completely rebuilt, it is NOT compatible with previous versions of BBE Sonic Sweet Plug-ins. Any sessions with a previous version of Sonic Sweet loaded into it must continue to use the old versions of the plug-ins.
The older version of Sonic Sweet (Legacy) is still available at a new lower price and will become a “legacy” product that will not be developed further. Those people who upgrade to the new “Optimised” 3.0 version will keep their older version to maintain compatibility with their previous sessions.
Sonic Sweet “Optimized” includes :
- Sonic Maximizer : The best way to get that professional sound and extra sparkle that is so difficult to capture,
- Harmonic Maximizer : Increases Presence and Clarity, restoring Natural Brightness and adding Deeper and Extended Low Frequencies,
- Loudness Maximizer : A mixing and mastering multi-band limiter plug-in. Its ultimate transparency allows the Loudness Maximizer to ‘dramatically’ increase the overall level of your mix without audible pumping effects
- Mach 3 Bass : Take your low end to new sonic depths…
Product Requirements :
- Windows 7 & 8
- Mac OS 10.6 and above (including 10.10 Yosemite)
- VST – AU – RTAS – AAX
- 32 & 64 bit Support
- Up to 5 computers authorisation
To celebrate this new version, BBE Sound has exclusively partnered with us at DontCrack in order to offer a special “Sexy” introductory price of ONLY $69 instead of the regular $149. Previous Sonic Sweet owners can upgrade to the NEW Sonic Sweet v3.0 with the new “Mach 3 Bass” for ONLY $29 !!! The promo is available from today through-out July, 2014.

NUGEN Audio, creator of intuitive tools for audio professionals, is proud to announce the launch of SEQ-S, a high-fidelity, linear-phase equalizer (EQ) ideal for music production and mastering as well as film and post-production applications.
With support for mono, stereo, 5.1, and 7.1 surround, SEQ-S provides sonic sculpting and precision EQ matching including stereo mid-side operation, automated spectrum analysis, curve smoothing, and a direct-draw spline interface for corrective applications.
“With SEQ-S, Nugen Audio is providing the industry’s most advanced linear-phase spline-match Equalization enabling sound professionals to massage and correct any audio with incredible resolution and precision that is far beyond what’s possible with a traditional parametric interface,” said Jon Schorah, creative director, NUGEN Audio. “Unlike many digital EQs, SEQ-S features a phase profile that is linear across the frequency spectrum, which results in natural-sounding EQ changes and produces minimal phase artifacts.
SEQ-S also includes a unique resolution setting that can be used with high precision in the low frequencies, allowing for highly transparent adjustments without muddying the mix.”
Voxengo has announced the 3.3 version of their Linear-phase spline equalizer.
CurveEQ is a spline equalizer for professional music and audio production applications. CurveEQ shows you the actual filter response you are designing by means of a spline (a smooth curvy line), so you can actually see what the EQ is doing with the sound. This, in turn, allows you to get the best from your mix and your tracks. CurveEQ perfectly suits the needs of mastering.
Changes included in the new 3.3 version are:
CPU load decreased by 20%.
Implemented a fast Shift+Click insertion of control points.
Implemented a more flexible way to copy envelopes.
Fixed the “Underlay” selection issues.
Added VST3 support.

Modartt has devoted two years of research in developing and refining the award-winning Pianoteq physical model. Pianoteq 5 brings more body and soul to the instruments, refining the attack and soundboard model, adding more clarity and authenticity. The refined piano sound is applied to the current grand pianos D4, Blüthner Model 1, YC5 Rock Piano, and the upright piano U4.
Ever since Pianoteq’s initial release in 2006, its physical model has been continuously developed for each major version. Pianoteq 5 refines the attack and soundboard model. The result is a new clarity and authenticity in the Grand Piano models D4, Blüthner Model 1, YC5 Rock Piano and the U4 Upright. A new Grand Piano K2, created for Pianoteq 5, has evolved by combining the best elements of several source pianos. Its 211 cm (6′ 11″) cabinet offers the “magnificent” sound that comes from a perfect balance between warmth and brilliance.
Prestigious Kremsegg collection
In collaboration with Kremsegg Schloss Museum (Austria), a collection of beautiful historical pianos has been created, ranging from 18th Century to late 19th Century instruments. The collection includes virtual copies of pianofortes, such as a J. Dohnal (1795), a J. Broadwood (1796), and grand pianos, such as an I. Besendorfer (1829), an I. Pleyel (1835), a J. Frenzel (1841), an S. Erard (1849), a J.B. Streicher (1852) and a C. Bechstein (1899). Incomparable for rendering the music of the Classical period, these instruments can also be used for more recent compositions. The late-19th Century pianos, particularly, with a design approaching that of a modern piano, illuminate jazz and other modern music.
New microphones bring a higher level of control to the recording project
The improved physical model makes it possible to work with directional microphones such as cardioid and figure 8. Fifteen microphones of well-known brands are modelled, increasing the palette of available sound colours. New features have been added: the microphones can be rotated in all three dimensions and attached together for their positioning, and they also offer control over polarity and the proximity effect.
New product content: to piano or not to piano
Pianoteq 5 comes with three possible “flavours”:
Acoustic pianos (D4 and K2).
Electric pianos (Vintages Tines R2, Vintage Reeds W1 and Clavinet).
Chromatic percussions (Vibraphones, Xylophone and Marimba).
We still have an excellent promo going on the Pianoteq Stage where you can get the product at $99 instead of the usual $159 while quantities last.
Customers who bought and registered the licence after March 1, 2013, get the upgrade for free (log in to the Modartt user area to download). For other customers who bought before the first of March 2014, there is a small upgrade fee.
- All instruments up-to-date with latest model improvements, D4 and YC5 re-built from scratch.
- Nine new instruments: Grand K2 and the Kremsegg Collection.
- Directional microphones support, which can be rotated in all directions.
- Many microphone models, with various directivity patterns, are available.
- Microphones can be linked together, and then moved or rotated together.
- The polarity of a microphone can be reversed (for M/S recording situations, typically).
- The four pedals have new parameters: Rattle, Lute Stop, Celeste, Super Sostenuto.
- Improved key noises, with an optional humanization of the parameters.
- Pianoteq presets (FXP files) can now embed a short MIDI excerpt.
- Dithering added to the audio export in Pianoteq Standalone.
- Metronome improvements.
Sonnox is continuing its “spring deal” where the Oxford Limiter native and Oxford Limiter AAX/DSP are on sale for 40% off retail price from the 22nd of May until the 28th of May.
The Oxford Limiter has been developed from decades of professional audio experience to provide a very high degree of quality and facility in programme loudness control and limiting functions.
By employing highly accurate logarithmic side chain processing, along with innovative adaptive timing functionality using look ahead signal acquisition, the limiter provides exemplary performance, whether one is seeking general transparent level control, programme loudness maximisation or heavily applied artistic sound effects.
Unique processing in the form of the Enhance function provides the sample value limiting needed to reliably avoid overloads in digital workstation environments and allows unprecedented volume and punch to be applied to programme beyond that available from conventional limiting functions.
