Parliant has announced that it will include BIAS Peak Express 5 as part of its ($250), a product extension of PhoneValet Message Center 3.0. The upgrade to BIAS Peak Express 5 audio filtering and editing software offers PhoneValet customers the abiilty to leverage optimizations for Mac OS X Tiger and also adds audio recording capabilities, support for opening 3GPP files, auto-latency compensation, support for Unicode and file names longer than 32 characters, multi-document recording, improved sample rate conversion, and Load/Save/Bypass buttons for AU plug-ins, etc.. The PhoneValet Podcast bundle also includes VST edition of the highly acclaimed BIAS SoundSoap 2, a high-quality audio noise reduction and restoration software available for Mac OS X.
“Winning a major industry award for the first edition of our PhoneValet Podcast bundle validates our commitment to partnering with world class companies,” according to Kevin Ford, president of Parliant. “BIAS, the market leader in stereo audio recording, editing, processing, and mastering software for Mac OS X,enables us to bring the best, yet easiest-to-use audio editing and production facility for our podcasting customers for crystal clear interview results”.
The upgrade will be made available free to existing users. New shipments of PhoneValet Podcast bundle will continue at the current price of $250 which includes PhoneValet 3.0 hardware and software. Existing PhoneValet 3.0 customers can still upgrade to PhoneValet Podcast for $75.
“Listeners expect broadcast-quality telephone voice conversations in today’s podcasting environment. Our customers can now meet that expectation using the same platform as their computer telephony solution,” said Mr. Ford. “This bundle represents tremendous value.”
The combination of Parliant and BIAS software would cost $400 if retailed separately ($199.95 for PhoneValet Message Center, $99 for SoundSoap 2 and $99 for Peak Express) rather than the $249.95 price of the PhoneValet Podcast bundle.
