Music and Film Industry Engineers/Operators now have a reliable, flexible, and easy-to-use solution to protect key creative digital assets regardless of their computer technical knowledge.

Protect Creative Assets

The creation of music and films are complex art forms. Capturing each note and frame is critical because they may not be easily nor voluntarily reproducible. And once a session is appropriately captured and catalogued, it is critical that it can be reproduced and reliably accessed for production into a commercial title.

The functionality of Producer's Edition (PE) for Mac OS X was defined with input from AES and NARAS members to assure pertinence to the recording industry. TOLIS Group's proven BRU LE^™ for Mac OS X^® solution serves as the foundation for Producer's Edition. Film and music operators and recording engineers, regardless of their computer technical knowledge, can use Producer's Edition effectively and with confidence.

Highlights

• Specifically designed to create session archives.
• Drag-and-drop volumes, folders, or session files from major applications for intuitive backup operations into Producer's Edition.
• Create two (2) tape copies of the same data simultaneously (Doubler Archival Mode^™) - thereby eliminating the need to perform two discrete backup operations for local and archival or deliverable asset copies.
• Tape Library Support up to two (2) drives and 24 slots.
• Engineers/Operators can choose to create a single archive element containing all assigned components on one set of backup tapes, multiple archives containing one or multiple components on a single set of backup tapes, or multiple tapes with one or multiple components per tape.
• Ease-of-use and reliability recording engineers/operators will appreciate.
• Universal Binary & PPC or Intel processor compliant.

BRU Producer's Edition is multi-processor and multi-core aware and compatible, and while already exceptionally low in overhead, takes advantage of these processing technologies to even further enhance the backup and restore throughput performance you'll realize.

Ease-of-Use

Recording engineers and operators can simply drag-and-drop session files, volumes, or folders into the PE environment for easy creation of the archives. Applications currently supported by this functionality include: Sonic Studio^™, Logic^®, Final Cut Pro^®, Soundtrack Pro^®, and select others.

Out-of-the-box, Producer's Edition supports all tape technology and no special drivers are required - PE will support the tape technology you are currently using or are moving toward. Additionally, the multithreaded design used in Producer's Edition unleashes the performance of the most modern tape drives.

Archive Creation - Your Way

Producer's Edition provides controls that define how the archives are placed on the backup media to suit your needs. You can single-drop multiple sources into PE to create single or multiple tapes or archives:

• Single archive element containing all assigned components on one set of backup tapes
• Multiple archives containing one or multiple components on a single set of backup tapes
• Multiple tapes with one or multiple components per tape

Producer's Edition provides additional flexibility through the ability to create on-site/off-site archival tape copies simultaneously. This capability eliminates the need to perform two (2) separate backup operations and reduces the potential of human error.

Hitting the "High Note"

The AES P&E Wing has produced a standards document that addresses all aspects of the Recording Industry. The critical capture and protection of creative assets is a component of that standards document, and TOLIS Group's BRU^™ technology is most favorably positioned. Producer's Edition now affords artists, recording engineers, and operators an archive creation tool that can be used with confidence.
