STEREO WORKSTATION SOFTWARE NOT SO QUICK OVERVIEW

The full system is called a Stereo Workstation and the software is called Stereo Workstation Software. But any Computer that has Stereo Workstation Software running is a Stereo Workstation. A Stereo Workstation is the Front End Component of your Stereo System and can be connected to the Analog Inputs of your Amplifier or the Digital Inputs of your DAC. The software has lots of utility features like Test Tones Mode, Calibrate Mode, Oscilloscope, and Spectrum Analyzer. But the most important thing you do with a Stereo Workstation is Tune Up the Sonic Performance of your Music. So you could say that a Stereo Workstation is a Music Server for playing Tuned Up Music. You Tune Up your Music by making On Screen Adjustments while listening to a particular Track. The Adjustments are Equalization, Sub Sonic, Volume, Balance, and Adaptive Volume. But you can’t just start Adjusting these things without a plan. You need to know exactly how and why you make each Adjustment. That’s why, for the best Tune Up results, a step by step Adjustment Guideline has been developed and is included in the User Manual. Each Track can have a unique set of Adjustments that are stored on the Hard Drive. If you have a lot of Music there could be thousands of stored Adjustments. But accessing Track Adjustments is easy because when you play a Track the correct Adjustments are guaranteed to be loaded by a feature called Automatic Track Recognition. Another type of Adjustment called a Baseline Adjustment is used to Tune Up your System, which includes your Room Acoustics, and is created using a feature called Computer Aided Adjustment. During a Computer Aided Adjustment session a Reference Tone will be generated along with other Test Tones at different frequencies that cover the audio spectrum. If a Test Tone seems louder or softer than the Reference Tone you make an On Screen Balance Adjustment to equalize the loudness. When the last test Tone is done the Balance Adjustments are processed and saved to become the Baseline Adjustment. When a Track is played the Track Adjustment for that Track is combined with the Baseline Adjustment to make the Total Adjustment. The Total Adjustment is sent to a Finite Impulse Response Filter Engine that does the number crunching to create better Sonic Performance for all your Music.
