| Raise the quality of all audio on your VAIO. |
 |
| Professional-quality sound effectors enhance VAIO audio enjoyment. |
 |
The five effector modules that come with SonicStage Mastering Studio (SSMS) were developed by Waves Corporation and SONY OXFORD for use at professional recording studios. Provided as standard plug-ins, they enable you to modify or enhance audio quality when using VAIO Zone, SonicStage, DVD videos or playing any sound from VAIO.*
 |
| * |
Audio Filter default settings support only VAIO Zone and SonicStage. |
Preset effects tuned by experienced sound engineers allow easy enjoyment of high-quality
audio playback. With these presets, operation is as simple as right-clicking an
SSMS Audio Filter button on the "task bar" to turn on the selected effector module. |

| Custom adjustment for audio perfectionists. |
 |
| If SSMS Audio Filter presets do not satisfy your demand
for high quality audio, high-level adjustment of audio and minute customisation
of effects to suit music of different styles and quality is also available. You
can choose on and off buttons for different combinations of modules, and minutely
tune every effector module to arrive at the desired sound. |

SONY OXFORD Inflator
Developed by SONY OXFORD, this new effector module increases the apparent loudness
of audio material without any perceptible loss in sound quality. Depending on
usage, it can add character and dynamic excitement similar to that of analogue
systems, subtle tube-like harmonic characteristics, warmth, fatness, presence,
boldness or added dimension. |

SONY OXFORD Equalizer
This three-channel parametric equaliser makes the dream of natural sound "retouching"
a reality by allowing you to accurately minimise distortion and strengthen weak
signals in the original source. In particular, it exhibits outstanding performance
when adjusting and improving analogue sound sources with decayed signal strength
at the high and low frequencies. |

Waves Renaissance Bass
The low frequency range can be emphasised and enhanced without affecting the mid
to high frequencies. This results in pleasing, natural sounding bass. |

Waves S1 Stereo Imager
The stereo image of an audio recording can be modified by extending or narrowing the range of the stereo effect. When the source converges in the centre channel and sounds muffled, you can liven up the sound by widening the stereo effect. |
 |


 |
|
 |
| |
Waves L1 Ultramaximizer
This convenient effector module raises the signal-to-noise ratio by amplifying the desired signal while minimising any increase in noise. It's extremely useful for expanding the dynamic range of music recorded on cassette tapes at low sound levels. |
