TELECOMWORLDWIRE-9 November 2000-Sonic Foundry launches audio compression codec (C)1994-2000 M2 COMMUNICATIONS LTD http://www.m2.com

The digital media and Internet software developer Sonic Foundry Inc has unveiled its new proprietary audio compression codec called Perfect Clarity Audio.

The new technology is designed to allow users to compress music in a format that will not sacrifice the fidelity of the original source audio recording. Supporting both 16-bit and 24-bit audio, the technology can be used to compress audio files in 2:1 ratios and up to 5:1 ratios.

Perfect Clarity Audio is currently included in Sonic's SIREN Jukebox 2.0 tool and it will also be incorporated into all of the company's future product releases. In addition Sonic will licence the codec to companies for use in software and hardware applications.

A free download of a demonstration version of Sonic's SIREN XPress product with the Perfect Clarity Audio encoder included can be found at http://www.sonicfoundry.com.
