Company Background
Black Diamond Sound Systems (formerly Freeman Sound Labs) got started several years ago when
Russ Freeman
was mastering one of his new
Rippingtons
albums for
Windham Hill
in his state-of-the-art recording studio in Colorado, and
remarked to his old man (an MIT-type biophysicist heavily into computers
who happened to be visiting at the time) how cool it would be to have a
really good program for recording and editing audio tracks, adding special
effects, and that interfaced to an external tape recorder, synthesizer,
and sequencer. Over the next several years, Russ (who won the 1994 MMM
Award for Best Engineered CD of the Year, and whose band "The Rippingtons" has
been voted the #1 Contempory Jazz Band 5 years running [Jazziz Readers Poll])
provided extensive input into
designing a professional-level editing program that contained all of the
essential features actually used by professional studio engineers, and
that was reliable, inexpensive, and easy to use. What started out as a
project to devise new and original algorithms for specific musical
applications gradually grew into a product that had widespread appeal to
musicians, producers and recording engineers, so it was decided to make it
available to the public. Thus began the Freeman Sound Labs. The name was
changed to Black Diamond Sound Systems when Freeman and his old man got
hooked on skiing, especially at Keystone and Arapaho Basin, which have some
spectacular "black diamond" runs.
Why is TsunamiPro so inexpensive (only 1/4th as much as the
competition)?
We are an Internet based company. We maintain a small staff of expert
programmers and we don't spend millions of dollars a year on advertising,
so our overhead is low. We concentrate on writing excellent programs, and
on providing the best technical support available. TsunamiPro is feature
for feature as good as or better than any other recording / editing
program available.
