Symetrix has released new apps for its 'zero learning curve' Jupiter audio processor.

Modelled on smartphone-style apps, the Jupiter system is comprised of hardware units that are programmed with apps that allow hardware to perform a multitude of common audio processing tasks. Users then need to tweak settings to suit a particular installation.

Six new apps join the existing library:

Sound Reinforcement 11 (multi-source mono or stereo selection routed to processed direct outputs)

'The Jupiter system is unique in its ability to take on multiple personalities while placing little demands on the programming expertise of the user,' says Mark Ullrich, Symetrix Senior Technical Sales Engineer. 'It is tremendously flexible, easy to use, and affordable. So far, the Jupiter paradigm is resonating very well with the market and the speed at which it's being adopted is unprecedented.'

Like the existing library of apps, users can load the newly released apps to any of the three Jupiter hardware units, instantly creating a 'purpose built' device.

The apps can be downloaded from the Symetrix website. This is hardly the last such announcement expected from Symetrix. 'We are continuing to develop the library,' says Ullrich. 'Users can expect a range of new apps to appear in 2011.'
