Get Organized with Case Logic

If you find yourself spending more time picking your way around mountains of CDs than playing them, Case Logic has a solution. Pro-Sleeves are designed to replace those jewel cases that always wind up cracking. The case is designed to save you space, and is available as a single-sided sleeve with a pocket for liner notes or a double-sided sleeve that lets you store two CDs per sleeve. Both models have a tab pocket on the top for CD spine labels. You can buy ProSleeves in bulk quantities, from a 30-pack to a 400 pack, as well as in 60-capacity travel cases. Maybe someday soon you’ll be able to see your floor again.

airFX From Alesis
The world of science fiction has finally merged with DJ technology with Alesis’ airFX. The airFX is a device designed to process incoming audio or generates sound effects in reaction to movement. It features 50 preset programs that modify any audio signal from CDs and vinyl to live performance in real time. airFX uses Alesis’ Axyz technology, which is an infrared beam that can be manipulated in three dimensions, along the X, Y and Z axis. If you use triangulation, up to five different parameters can be controlled in each preset program. The unit’s interface uses a single knob that you turn to select, engage, bypass and release a given effect and an LCD that shows you the current program. You “play” airFX by pressing the knob to engage the effect and then move your hand through an invisible infrared sphere to create sounds or to change the incoming audio signal. The unit has 50 preset programs that include effects like panning, flanging, pitch shifting and resonance filtering. Other digital signal processing effects include programs like Vinylizer, which is a scratchy vinyl simulator that simulates turntable scratching. airFX also features sub-harmonic synthesis that creates low frequency harmonics for very low bass sounds, vocoding, synthesizer and percussion/effect sounds. airFX features stereo RCA inputs and outputs, a frequency range of 20Hz-20kHz, 24-bit converters and comes with a 9-volt DC external power supply. And you can’t beat the airFX program names: Haunted Landscape, Gender Bender, Decimator, Sunspot, Tokyo Phase, Percolator, Overdrive, Psychophase, Ghost Flange, Phasers on Stun, Pitch Transporter, Snake Bite and Bow Wow.

TC Electronics Triple C
The Triple C multi-band, envelope and full-band compressor is a dedicated three-band insert unit made for studio owners. The unit’s three compression techniques allow users to spectrally compress source material in low-, mid- and high-frequency bands. Envelope compression lets you change the dynamic envelope of the incoming source by changing Attack and Release gain, while Full-band simulates from conventional analog compressors so you get the sound of full-band compression right away. An external side chain I/O lets you control the unit through an outside source. The Triple C’s user interface comes with a multi-spectral LCD display that displays parameters like threshold, ratio, attack, release with soft limiting, look ahead, spectral balancing, digital Radiance Generator (DRG), envelope attack gain, release gain and overall makeup gain. The unit comes with 50 factory presets that you can apply to various sources like Vocal, Guitar, Bass and Break Beats and others. One hundred user-preset locations are also available. In hardware, the Triple C has high-resolution metering, 24-bit resolution A/D and D/A converters, S/PDIF, MIDI (automatable) and ¼-inch analog I/Os.
