The AudioEase Speakerphone speaker and environment emulator plug-in lets you call up sounds ranging from bullhorns to vintage amps, walkie-talkies to crackly telephones.

Add Real-world Ambience to Your Tracks with this Plug-in. You can select from a huge selection of environments, effects, and samples to put some real-world grit and vibe into your recordings. Add dial tones, static, distortion, convolution reverb, and many more textures via hundreds of presets and comprehensive controls. Not simply a great speaker-emulation plug-in, Speakerphone excels in putting your track inside of realistic environments.

A bad GSM connection on a busy sidewalk, a bullhorn with feedback and a helicopter overhead, or an early '50s rockabilly guitar amp in a recording studio live room: Speakerphone gives you authentic speakers of any size together with their natural environments.

Here's all the walkie-talkies, distant transistor radios, upstairs TV sets, bullhorns and cell phones you'll ever need, right inside one plug-in. Speakerphone will add dial tones, operators and static, and you can select from a wealth of ambiences on either the caller or receiver's end. And with a click you can send anything from the sample-playback bay right to the cursor in your Pro Tools track.

Operation is extremely quick: you just call up one of the hundreds of carefully crafted and archived presets. If you're a tweaker just click 'show controls' and the whole dashboard slides out, at your disposal, with the most minute detail.

Speakerphone, powered by Altiverb, combines a wealth of effects including a convolution engine that uses actual samples of hundreds of original speakers, a radio receiver
tuning dial, record player scratch and static generator, GSM cell phone data compression, distortion, tremolo, delay, a variety of EQ and dynamics, bit crushing, sample rate reduction, a full blown convolution reverb, and a library of samples to combine into entire environments. You want to have the artist rap through a cell phone? Rather than pull up an eq and distortion, why not make him rap through one of Speakerphone's actual GSM connections? Perhaps surrounded by the acoustics and sounds of an idling car at a gas station?

Speakerphone also contains a host of classic guitar amps, complete with tailor made distortion, spring reverbs, and everything else to build guitar tone that you won't believe is coming from a plug-in.
