V.I.P. for the recording studio
Integral to the VIP is its ability to function as a full-fledged recording studio. A creative artist never knows when inspiration will strike.
The VIP was designed for the musician and creative artist to go instantly into record mode whenever something inspirational manifests. Simply tap the record button and you will capture it in full fidelity.
Transcend the confining limitations of the 4 GB ceilings of 32-bit programs.
The VIP also has 64-bit end-to-end processing for the clearest most detailed computer audio recording possible. What does that mean?
Quoting Mix magazine:
“In digital audio, sound gets turned into numbers.
So it comes down to how big a number you can represent with a single digital word:
232 = 4,294,967,296
264 = 18,446,744,073,729,551,616
Anyone who has used a sampler or recorded digital audio knows that the more bits you use to represent an audio sample, the more dynamic range you can represent. Dynamic range is proportional to word length:
32-bit = 192 dB
64-bit = 384 dB
When digital processing for audio occurs, the math involved can produce some very large values, as coefficients are computed for processing digital audio signals. With 32-bit processing really big values get truncated or rounded off when they’re bigger than the registers available to store them.
Thus, one of the great benefits of 64-bit internal processing is that a high degree of audio precision can be maintained through successive rounds of computation.”
Excerpted from Mix magazine, “When I’m Sixty-Four (Bit)” by Ron Franklin, October 2005.™
The VIP uses 64-bit process precision across the entire audio signal path, providing much greater summing accuracy than with 32-bit process precision and ensuring you get the
best possible audio quality.
64-bit plug-ins
Since most plug-ins are software simulations of complex, real-world acoustical or analog-electronic effects, getting realistic results requires major processing power and extremely accurate audio reproduction.
To ensure the best audio quality, all of the Native Effects plug-ins that ship with the VIP make full use of 64-bit process precision.
This means whatever you record will sound its absolute best.
A premier 1 space channel strip combining a Class A tube amplifier, VCA-based compressor and three band equalizer that is perfect as a DI for instruments and equally at home with any microphone.
The VIP has a unique and advanced mastering suite that allows you to do final mixing, sequencing, pacing and processing your songs without leaving your recording platform.
The VIP allows you to concentrate on your performances and capture them with the highest quality.
