Neyrinck has announced that SoundCode For Dolby E version 2.0 is now shipping for Mac and Windows systems.
Version 2.0 is a major update to the Dolby E software tools making it easier and faster to work with Dolby E.
Version 2.0 features a highly accelerated Dolby E encoding engine for faster encodes, a new Final Cut encoding plug-in, Audio Unit and VST decoding plug-ins, and hot folder Dolby E decoding.
Also, version 2.0 features a new Mac utility called N-Mon for realtime Dolby E decode monitoring with Quicktime Player, Final Cut, and external video tape testing.
Version 2.0 is available as a free update for current SoundCode For Dolby E owners.
In version 2.0, Dolby E encoding now operates directly in Final Cut Pro and Final Cut Express as an export plug-in.
One or more project sequences can be selected from a project to be exported as Dolby E.
The plug-in automatically uses the time code, frame rate, and optionally the in/out points of each sequence which makes it easy-to-use and reduces operator error.
A batch processing mode allows any combination of sequences to be Dolby E encoded at one time for efficient workflows.
SoundCode For Dolby E’s decoding has also been extended tremendously in version 2.0. VST and Audio Unit plug-ins have been added to allow realtime Dolby E monitoring in workstations such as Nuendo, Pyramix, and Soundtrack Pro.
Paul Neyrinck, president and founder of Neyrinck, says “In version 1.0 we accomplished smooth, realtime Dolby E decoding as well as faster-than-realtime encoding.”
“But we had an inkling we could speed up the encoding on the standalone application. As we analyzed it, we discovered that the the Pro Tools Audiosuite system could also be significantly accelerated. “
“Our Pro Tools customers really like the Audiosuite integration so this is a big win for them. And now that decoding operates in realtime with most audio and video applications, SoundCode For Dolby E is the easiest, fastest, and most complete Dolby E solution available.”
