 |
|
P SOFTHOUSE, are pleased to announce that CHRONOStream(R) version 2.0 has been released. CHRONOStream, which has been developed using PHISYX 2 (*See the reference) for controlling phases in sound waves, is an easily handled time/pitch scaler which produces a natural sound quality. Its graphical interface is simple, so that users do not have to struggle through a manual. And also, rendered data can be saved, so that users can reuse the modified data multiple times. Time and pitch are operated independently, so that time can be changed without pitch shifting and pitch can be shifted without time length changes.
"We are confident that CHRONOStream2 will be commonly used for a variety
of purposes with its easy operation." comments HATAKEYAMA Keiki, a chief
executive officer at P SOFTHOUSE. "For business circumstances, its time
stretching skill is useful to easily re-check conference proceedings.
For studying languages, the software helps learners to listen, repeat
and take dictation what an audio file says. Also, its pitch shifting
technology will help professional music creators to manipulate their
audio resources as what they wish. " Hatakeyama also mentions its
software management possibilities. "CHRONOStream 2 shows our business
partners how PHISYX 2 can be manipulated for software. We are welcoming
any proposals to use the PHISYX2 technology for other products."
CHRONOStream2 helps professionals in several aspects. For dances and
plays, for example, the software adjusts accurate timings of back ground
music to fit into any arranging. For commercial message creation, the
technology arranges sound data to incorporate into. For singers, it
modifies existing audio data to shift pitches of their voices. For
TV program edit, the software produces several kinds of vocal characters
from the only one original sound data. Thus, CHRONOStream2 has a lot of
possibilities to be manipulated.
CHRONOStream2 has been upgraded with the following features. First of
all, rendering speed is now about seven times faster with lower CPU load.
Users can see the results of their work almost immediately, and the
software lets PCs work lighter. Next, a new algorithm RHYTHM treats beat
music properly. There are three algorithms (MIX, SOLO and RHYTHM) to deal
with data. This means that users can flexibly choose a suitable algorithm
to handle any audio resources whatever unique qualities they may have.
A new feature -Formant Control- makes pitchshifted human voice data such
as narrations and songs much clearer. In this manipulation, for instance,
formant positions can be moved, so that female voices can be changed into
male voices, or vice versa.

*The PHISYX 2 (Phase Interpolated and Synchronized Expansion) technology
is the world level time and pitch scaling technology developed by
P SOFTHOUSE. By focusing on phases in sound waves, the technology provides
a superior time stretching and pitch shifting ability to other exiting
technologies. P SOFTHOUSE is currently applying for a patent on the
PHISYX. Any proposals for PHISYX adaptation to other software and hardware
are acceptable. For licensing, please contact to the PSOFT product
