SADiE Releases V5.6 Software
SADiE announces the immediate availability of software version V5.6 for the SADiE Series 5 range of digital audio workstations. V5.6 introduces many powerful new editing and recording features. These expanded capabilities will not only further enhance usage of flagship platforms such as the LRX2 and PCM-H64, but also offer benefits across the entire SADiE Series 5 range of workstations.
The new MTR (Multi-track Recorder) user interface has been honed for use in live situations with the LRX2 Location Audio Workstation and PCM-H64 multi-track platforms specifically in mind. This software has been designed to require no training with such a fast learning curve that it enables the rapid setup and operation of the systems in the style of traditional multi-track recorders. Projects created in MTR may still be opened in the full version of SADiE V5.6 software later for editing and post production operations or transported to other platforms. The new LRX2 MADI card is now fully supported offering up to 64 tracks of simultaneous recording. CD’s can now be burned to any CD Writer, including laptop CD or DVD writers - invaluable for creating rapid reference playback disks on location recording.
Following valuable feedback from field-recording customers in the film and TV location recording community, V5.6 also allows the direct recording of Polyphonic WAV files. Additionally, the new Delayed Mirror function allows recordings on the primary drive to be mirrored to slow media such as DVD-RAM in the background to provide simultaneous back-up of easily transportable files.
Full iXML support is included in V5.6; designed to provide an unambiguous communication of file and project based metadata between various stages of workflow in production, telecine, picture editorial and audio post production. iXML not only offers a standardised specification to communicate all metadata currently in use, but also provides an extensible framework for manufacturers to add new private or public data and for the specification to expand in a completely forward and backwards compatible manner. This is of particular benefit to users of Disk-Based Field Recorders, Telecine, Data Management Systems, Non Linear Video Editing Systems, Digital Audio Workstations, Asset Management Systems & Audio Playback Systems.
Another notable new feature is support for playback of QuickTime Movies in the playlist in addition to the DV-AVI format currently supported. QuickTime support is available as a cost option.
