The Foundry: Autodesk revokes development license!
[permalink]
05.01.2009 
A long-time visual effects software developer The Foundry announced that effective immediately, the company is significantly reducing prices on
plug-ins for Autodesk advanced systems, as it is no longer part of the
Autodesk Authorised Developer Network programme and can no longer guarantee continued development or support. The decision follows notification by Autodesk that they will not renew their development license with The Foundry, citing competitive issues. The decision ends Autodesk’s twelve-year development relationship with The Foundry and its users! The Foundry has reduced their node-locked
Furnace (now $1000 US / 650 GBP),
Tinder ($1000 US / 650 GBP) and
Keylight ($500 US / 325 GBP) plug-in prices by over 80 % with free Burn licenses. The reduced pricing will be available for the whole of January 2009. It is unclear at this stage whether this offer will be extended.

New pitch algorithms for Lexicon's PCM 96
[permalink]
01.12.2008 
Legendary maker of audio DSP hardware, Utah-based Lexicon (a Harman International Company), announced a software update v3.0.0.7 for its Mac-only stereo processor
PCM96. Included in the update is a new set of pitch shift algorithms, supporting both practical shifting and shifting for special effects. The new VSO Pitch algorithm can be used to help bring a choir up to pitch or to correct the pitch shift created by common video conversions, all while maintaining a solid stereo image. It offers enhanced control through the ability to raise or lower the pitch of a voiceover or dialog track. New Multivoice Pitch algorithms combine multiple shifters with Lexicon’s powerful delay architecture to create climbing pitch ladders, shifted echoes, voice doublers, along with many other effects. Additionally, the update provides plug-in compatibility for Steinberg Cubase and Nuendo. Download the installer
here.
