Algorithms

You don't have to re-invent the wheel

Algorithms can be defined as the driving force behind DigitalAudio. Combined in different ways, they form the structure of each digital audio system. Over the years we have developed a multitude of market leading algorithms on all relevant device platforms: PC, Mac, SGI and DSP, or custom made DSP. As in a building block principle, the algorithms can be combined and can fulfill different functions. In this way we can find the optimal solution for your product. If that is not enough, we can of course develop unique modules for you.

 

Basics

Basics are algorithms which are contained in each digital audio system. They form the fundamental structure. We can arrange compressors, equalizers, delays, reverbs, levelers, sample rate converters, etc., all individually adapted to your needs. They can be optimized for quality, for available resources, or both.

 

Creative - Tools

The manipulation of audio is a creative process! The motivation behind developing creative tools is to digitally play with audio data and open up new worlds of sound. Pitch shifting, time stretching, instrument distortion, voice processing, and much more, facilitate the step into a completely new dimension in sound.

Mastering

Mastering is magic. Mastering gives the final touch to a production before it goes into the factory for pressing. The quality of the mastering determines the success of the entire production. This is a challenge which we have set ourselves. Our continuing success is reflected in numerous products currently on the Pro Audio market.

 

Surround

What would DVD Video, DVD Audio or Super Audio CD be without surround sound? Boring! Therefore all our algorithms can be used in multi-channel applications.

Innovative solutions guarantee an optimal surround mix.

Detecting mistakes and recovering sounds

Nothing is more annoying than a high-quality audio presentation which is damaged by clipping, hum, noise, or other disturbances in the quality. The algorithms in this section are found in recording and playback units, as well other applications such as in active boxes, mixers and many more. Through their ability to detect and recover damaged audio, the quality of the entire product is increased.

 

Restoration

Restoration algorithms serve to seek out and eliminate errors on analog and digital recording media. Whenever it hisses, crackles, hums, pops, clips, or whenever drop-outs in the audio signal become audible, small restoration miracles can be performed. World-wide broadcasting corporations trust our technology when archiving their historical and cultural audio resources.

 

Measuring techniques

DigitalAudio, as well as analog audio, is primarily listening, listening and listening again. To digitize what is heard, requires the utilization of various measuring techniques.

Extensive experience in this area is essential in order to determine which measuring signals are applicable for a particular process. The selection of the correct procedure determines the quality of the results and over temporal components.

We have gained this experience over the years, and we are happy to put it to service for you.

Extras

In addition to the algorithms, Cube-Tec International has developed and perfected further technologies. The possibilities range far beyond DVD authoring, the quality control of CDs and DAT, or DDP.

 

As we said above, you don't have to invent the wheel - we've done that for you!
