Sonic Studio has released version 2.0.2 of the PreMaster CD premastering application. As mainly a maintenance update, this new version offers improved performance and stability. Current owners of PreMaster CD can download version 2.0.2 at the Downloads page of the company's Web site. New users can purchase PreMaster CD at a 10 percent discount through the end of December 2007, as well as save up to $100 by buying it bundled. Learn more about this offer here.

There's more—Sonic Studio has also released an update for the audio production tool, soundBlade. Version 1.2.1 is also a maintenance update, which is intended to improve a few functions before the Universal Binary version of soundBlade (version 2.0) is released later. Like that of PreMaster CD, the soundBlade update is available from Sonic Studio's Web site.
