Intelligent Devices Ships PCI Versions Of Both Baltimore, MD: Intelligent Devices Inc. is now shipping PCI versions of its real-time analog/digital audio monitoring display system; the AD-1 Pro Audio Analyzer. Consisting of four real time modules; a Supermeter, Spectral Display, Phase Scope and Waveform Clip Monitor, version 2.1 offers new features and improved performance. The Pro Audio Analyzer provides precise simultaneous stereo peak and average metering, clip indication, headroom margin indication, L/R sum and difference ratio display, real time spectral analysis, phase metering and waveform history display– assuring a perfect digital master or CD. The AD-1 replaces thousands of dollars of hardware, and provides simplicity, accuracy and functionality unavailable elsewhere at any cost. Applications include analog and digital DAW mixing, mastering, radio broadcast, diagnostics, calibration and education. Now both the AD-1 TDM plug-in and the stand alone version allow breaking apart the various modules to display only the desired functions. This provides a choice of normal full function display array or sub-displays, thereby minimizing screen space used for metering. New optimized data management routines and analysis engines produce even smoother and faster real time displays for both the TDM plug-in and stand-alone versions. AD-1 is now fat-binary (PPC native) giving PowerMac users even more dramatic performance increases! The AD-1’s five 240 element meters will show every peak, even if only one sample long. They feature stereo peak and average levels; with center sum or difference, floating peak bars, clip indicators and remaining headroom displays. The new spectrum analyzer is the world’s only true stereo RTA. It uses two 1024 point Fourier engines with a unique 74 dB digital peak log display that now supports both peak and average analysis. The new phase scope shows stereo imaging and L/R discorrelation, and now sports analog phosphor decay emulation and a phase reference grid. Ten presets store 24 separate user adjustable parameters, such as meter display modes, phase gain, spectral ballistics and special audio output functions. “The AD-1 is the first in our series of special purpose audio programs and real world tools”, says Intelligent Devices president and graphics interface designer Stephen St.Croix. “We all need a package that shows us exactly what our DAWs are producing. You can’t just guess with digital audio you might end up with some very nasty surprises” The AD-1 now operates as a TDM plug-in or stand-alone application on AudioMedia II and III cards, and runs with no hardware on most PowerMacintoshes, using the on-board 16 bit I/O ports or the new third party digital I/O nubus and PCI cards. AD-1 is now PPC native!
