MAAT OEM

Libraries for DSP & Measurement of Digital Audio

MAAT’s family of intellectual property and white label products are the fastest way to better sound. Whether it’s our world famous equalizers, our precision measurement tools, or our LIN and DRi libraries ready for integration, let us help you reduce development time while controlling costs and improving your products.

 

LIN OEM Developer Kit

Better DSP starts with better dither…Does your product perform DSP on audio, even something as simple as gain? If so, you need to redither, and better dithering starts with better algorithms.

LIN OEM incorporates a newly developed dither engine based on the current understanding of psychoacoustics, information theory and audio production best practices. As with other members of MAAT’s product family, extensive research and its double precision DSP architecture contribute to its uncompromising quality. The technology can be integrated into applications and utilities for macOS, Linux and Windows operating systems.

Although dithering is usually considered an automatic function that can be ignored without consequence, quality–conscious engineers know that redithering prior to delivery is the last opportunity to define the quality of their product. LIN OEM includes seven modern choices for optimal noise shaping. Four of those options are derived from the most recent thinking in psychoacoustically optimized 5th, 8th and 9th order shapes.

DRi is the Subjective Dynamics standard

 

DRi OEM Developer Kit

Does your product or service display a “Dynamic Range,” “DR” or “Loudness” metric? DRi is the standard for subjective dynamic range, and MAAT is the sole provider of DR Dynamic Range functionality.

DRi or Integrated DR is the de facto metric for measurement of subjective dynamic range for consumers and engineers. When you see integer “DR” values, you’re not looking at crest factor, PLR (Peak–to–Loudness Ratio) or other measurement methods that do not correlate well with subjective loudness. Unlike ITU-R BS.1770, EBU R 128 and other modern, mandated Loudness measurement methods designed for automated loudness control, DR (Dynamic Range) is specifically formulated to measure dynamic range and subjective loudness in a way that we humans can relate to. Hundreds of thousands of audio enthusiasts agree: DRi is better .

How?

  • Unlike crest factor or PLR, DRi is standardized.
  • As an integer, DRi is easy to read, comprehend, and compare.
  • DRi is used by tens of thousands of engineers and music enthusiasts worldwide.

MAAT’s DRi library is integration–ready for rapid implementation. DRi technology can be easily integrated into applications and utilities for macOS, Windows, and Linux operating systems.

Testimonial

Timo Wildenhain, Head of Professional Audio at Steinberg Media Technologies GmbH, on LIN OEM…

Wildenhain is dedicated to functionality and fidelity, shepherding their pro business into a worldwide phenomenon. “We have chosen LINpro dithering for our high-end mastering software WaveLab Pro 11 (and Cubase Pro 12) because we didn’t want to make any compromises regarding sound quality and ease of use.” His opinion is unequivocal. “LIN is simply the best dithering on the market.”
