Original Press Release:
Audio Precision Adds USB Connectivity and Vista Support to 2700 Series and ATS-2 Audio Analyzers
BEAVERTON, Ore., June 28 /-- Audio Precision, Inc., the worldwide leader in audio test and measurement, today announced the feature set of the latest software upgrades for the 2700 Series and ATS-2 audio analyzers. The new AP2700 v3.30 and ATS v1.60 control software includes USB connectivity, native support for Windows Vista, and improved user profile management.
The updates in functionality and connectivity ensure AP instruments will continue to be the industry standard in audio test as more engineers and product line testers move to laptops rather than tower computers for instrument control. In addition, the AP Test Signals and Resource Disc reference CDs have been revamped for the release with new tones and sample tests to make hundreds of audio tests faster and easier.
USB will now be the standard interface for all new 2700 Series and ATS-2 analyzers. Current customers can buy a USB adapter kit separately (the current APIB interface will remain available as an option). All analyzers in the APx family of analyzers are already USB enabled and Vista compliant.
"The 2700 is our flagship and we'll continue to make improvements in hardware and software," says Bruce Hofer, Chairman and co-founder of Audio Precision. "With USB and Vista support, customers can use the latest laptops with our analyzers, making their test set up much more portable and allowing much greater convenience and productivity."
