Stereo Tool
Stereo Tool is a software-based audio processor which offers outstanding audio quality and comes with many unique features. It is used by over 3000 FM stations ranging from small local stations to 50-100 kW stations and nation-wide networks with dozens of transmitters, thousands of streaming stations and many DAB+, HD, AM and TV stations. It can be used for both live and file based processing.
Beside performing traditional audio processing, Stereo Tool can also repair many common audio problems on the fly, and optimize outgoing audio for better FM reception. A full list of features can be found below on this page.
MicroMPX
MicroMPX is our STL (studio-to-transmitter link) codec. It transports a full FM composite MPX signal, including pilot and RDS, at a bitrate of only 320 kbit/s, with perfect peak control. Using MicroMPX you can generate your signal completely in your studio and easily distribute it to all your transmitters.
MicroMPX is a codec that is specifically designed for FM. It doesn't cause typical lossy codec artifacts (pre/post ringing, watery sound), and perfectly maintains peak control, even when using composite clipping. This eliminates the need to have an expensive high end audio processor or stereo/RDS generator at the transmitter site.
STXtreme
Our new hardware FM/AM/HD audio processor, that combines the best audio quality with ease-of-use. If you're looking for the combination of ease-of-use of a hardware processor and the well-known audio quality of Stereo Tool, look no further! STXtreme will give you both.
The STXtreme firmware and hardware are meticulously tuned to each other, so no need to worry about sound card settings/CPU usage/synchronization etc. This also minimizes the monitoring output latencies to below 5 ms, FM output, depending on settings, between 5 and 100 ms.
ST-Enterprise
Thimeo ST-Enterprise is intended for larger media groups, which run multiple stations or channels. It does everything that Stereo Tool does, and more! With ST-Enterprise, you can run up to 50(*) FM and/or HD processors on a single pc, with a single interface to control them and an overview screen that shows the status of all the incoming and outgoing signals.
By sharing resources between instances, ST-Enterprise makes more efficient use of the availalbe resources, mainly the processing power, and it allows you to share input sound cards between multiple processing instances.
WatchCat
WatchCat is a program that offers batch processing. it keeps track of all the files that are placed in configurable folders (watchfolders), and it can process files that are dragged onto it. It can convert audio files (also audio in video files) to different formats, normalize them (to ITU-R.1770 / R128, RMS and peak levels) and process them with Stereo Tool. For each input, multiple outputs (for example at different bitrates, with different file formats or different processing/normalization) can be configured. Built-in scripting can be used to attach other actions to it, such as automatically uploading files to a server.
