Signum Audio Releases BUTE Batch Audio Processor

Process very large numbers of audio files through multiple FX stages with this server-based system, ideal for games development and production.  

Signum Audio is an audio software developer based in Scotland and its new BUTE Batch Processor is a highly adaptable server-based solution aimed towards gaming studios dealing with vast amounts of dialogue and localisation.

Ideal for large projects, the BUTE Batch Processor is designed to be stable, reliable, performant and most importantly to deliver highest fidelity audio. It is highly configurable and can easily be integrated into an existing audio production pipeline, allowing thousands of files to be processed at once, outputting consistent versions that are compliant with the parameters set by the user. This saves considerable amounts of time.

The BUTE batch processor is perfect, for example, for dealing with vast amounts of dialogue and localisation, for dealing with audio assets from different sources, or for projects that need to be delivered to multiple delivery specifications.
