Montreal-based animation software maker Di-O-Matic has upgraded Voice-O-Matic, its lip-synching plug-in tool for 3ds Max.
The new version of the software, version 3, is set to ship this summer and includes as new features 64-bit support for Autodesk 3ds Max 9, 3ds Max 2008, 3ds Max 2009 and 3ds Max 2010; added compatibility for 3ds Max 2010; improved lip-synch quality; and new presets and settings.
‘All of our customers who have used Voice-O-Matic over the years consistently tell us how much they recommend it to anyone who needs to add quality lip-sync to their 3D characters in a quick and easy way,’ said Laurent M. Abecassis, president and co-founder of Di-O-Matic. ‘Voice-O-Matic v3 for 3ds Max will offer 3D artists and studios new features and productivity enhancements that will not only accelerate the process of creating accurate lip sync ‘ it will perpetuate the artist friendly and ‘it just works’ reputation it built over the last six years.’
The software is expected to be available for purchase direct from the Di-O-Matic online store (http://www.di-o-matic.com/shop/) or through Di-O-Matic worldwide resellers in summer 2009. Pricing will be $349 for a full commercial version, with floating licensing options and one year premium support.
