SmartSound Soundtrack Creation in Ulead Video Editing Software
May 12, 2004
Northridge, CA - SmartSound Software's Quicktracks technology is driving the soundtrack creation elements of Ulead Systems' new VideoStudio 8 video editing software, the copmany has announced. By embedding SmartSound's patented technology and music with its latest software release, Ulead is giving home video creators the opportunity to create composer-quality soundtracks for their videos without having to be a musician or an audio expert.
SmartSound's Quicktracks technology is the driving force behind the new Music Generator feature inside VideoStudio 8. While editing their videos, VideoStudio 8 users can go to the Auto Music tab and select a piece of music from the SmartSound library that sounds appropriate for a particular section of footage. The patented SmartSound Quicktracks technology then creates a new, fully-composed soundtrack based on that music selection, which exactly fits the length needed and always has a musical beginning and ending.
SmartSound has developed a Quicktracks SDK (Software Development Kit) to enable visual application developers to tap into the power of SmartSound's patented technology and library of more than 70 music and sound effects CDs. Embedding Quicktracks not only improves the end user experience, it also provides significant after-market sales opportunities for add-on music and sound effects.
Anyone who purchases VideoStudio 8 can increase their music library by purchasing additional SmartSound Music CDs. The SmartSound Movie Music CDs are licensed for home and educational use, and feature musical selections most used by home video creators. Movie Music CDs can be purchased direct from SmartSound or participating resellers, and will soon be available from the Ulead Web store.
