Speakerphone 3

A bad GSM connection on a busy sidewalk, a bullhorn with feedback and a helicopter overhead, or a 1952 rockabilly guitar amp in a recording studio live room: The Speakerphone audio plug-in gives you authentic speakers of any size together with their natural environments.

All the walkie-talkies, distant transistor radios, upstairs TV sets, bullhorns, cell phones and guitar cabinets you will ever need. Speakerphone (Mac , Windows, iLok or challenge response) will add dial tones, operator, static, and you can select from a wealth of ambiences on either the caller or receiver’s end.

400 speaker impulse responses, 23 microphones, 106 ‘Covers’ (from blankets to car trunks), 53 Altiverb rooms and outdoor spaces, 5 gigabyte of ambiences and sound FX, and 12 DSP modules from Leslie to GSM compression, conveniently presented to you in well over 500 presets.

At a Glance:

• Hundreds of presets
• Compression, distortion, tremolo, delay, EQ, and dynamics controls
• Convolution engine using samples of speakers and real-world appliances and sounds
• Classic amp sounds with distortion and reverb effects
• Models of microphones – from Royers to toys
• New Coverup module puts sounds in cardboard boxes, tin cans, and more
• Mac OS X: AAX, RTAS, Audio Units, VST, MAS, AudioSuite
• Windows: RTAS, VST, AudioSuite

What is new in version 3:

• Improved automation reliability
• reducing conflicting situations between presets, automated presets and automation curves.
• reduction of not found IRs (Speaker, Mic, Cover & Room), inherited from Speakerphone 1 preset/settings, that could resolve to default IRs.
• removal of the auto level function alltogether, this is replaced by a suggested level area in the input meter.
• samplebay on/off is now available for automation.

What did not change in Speakerphone 3

• Backward compatible. Speakerphone 3 replaces Speakerphone 2. When you open a session/song/project made with Speakerphone 2 (or 1), Speakerphone 3 will open in its place, with the same settings, reading all automation and producing the exact same sound.
• However, sessions/projects/songs saved with Speakerphone 3 will likely not open perfect on Speakerphone 2 workstations.
• Apart from choosing from the hundreds of presets from the preset browser you can shape and mangle your sound extensively combining the many DSP modules in Speakerphone 3.
• The 4 GB environment FX sample library you get with Speakerphone remains royalty free to use in any production.
• With a Speakerphone 3 license you get fixes and support without yearly fees.
• You have the option to sell your license.
