Thursday, February 23 2006 | dmac Elemental Audio Systems Updates InspectorXL To Version 1.0.2 Elemental Audio Systems today released an update to its Mac and Windows compatible RTAS, VST, and Audio Unit audio plug-in analysis suite, InspectorXL. The version 1.0.2 update adds numerous processing improvements, resolves several issues with the prior version, and includes interface enhancements to make InspectorXL easier on the eyes. Changes affect all six of InspectorXL's analysis modules (Spectrum Analyzer, Stereo Analyzer, Statistics, Multimeter, Vertical Level Meter, and Horizontal Level Meter) and Elemental Audio Systems highly recommends that all users move to this latest version. The update is available for download free of charge to all current registered customers. InspectorXL's six (6) audio plug-ins integrate the following tools: spectrum analyzers, phase scopes, balance meter, correlation meter, stereo image mid-side meters, peak and RMS level meters (including K-system and IEC Digital PPM support), and more. Because InspectorXL's analyzers have been appropriately grouped and/or separated into individual plug-ins, screen space and CPU usage is limited to those analyzers currently needed. Each InspectorXL plug-in offers a wealth of configuration options to control ballistics, viewing preferences, and the specific analysis data provided. InspectorXL is available for purchase from the Elemental Audio Systems website and is currently available at a reduced price of $89 US.
