MacWeek, March 16, 1998 by Matthew Rothenberg
The $15.99 software package is a generative sequencer that supports AIFF and .WAV samples of any length or resolution, the company said. Users can save their mixes as stand-alone Macromedia Director cast files. PhatBoy lets users assemble samples by clicking and dragging them into a bank; they can also select whether they want to loop any of the samples.
Next, the software calculates the total number of four-track mix combinations it can generate from the selected samples. Users can move forward or backward through samples assigned to each track; another set of buttons lets users modify the tempo of the tracks, the company said.

Clicking in a graphics window calls up a preset collection of real-time fades and dissolves between audio channels. Clicking on a channel name such as "drum breaks" will randomly select samples within a group.
PhatBoy is available for Mac OS and Windows 95 systems. A seven-day trial version is available from the company's Web site.
