In post-production, sound designers and engineers don’t always require the best sound quality. Shocking, isn’t it? Audio Ease understands that there are lots of times (particularly in film post) when users might need to reproduce the sound of such low-fidelity devices as walkie-talkies, transistor radios, upstairs TV sets (that are being played too loud), bullhorns (“Come out of there Rocko, the place is surrounded…”), and the ubiquitous cell phone. Audio Ease released Speakerphone to deliver exactly those types of sounds, not to mention a darn fine dial tone, static, and even an operator that’s had a long day. Powered by Altiverb, Speakerphone combines a wealth of effects that include a convolution engine that’s equipped with hundreds of samples of real speakers, radio tuning dials, record player noise, bit crushing, cell phone compression, and even a full-blown convolution reverb. Speakerphone is available for Mac OS X in VST, RTAS, AudioSuite, Audio Unit, and MAS formats, as well as for Windows in RTAS and VST formats.
