  • Simplified, Seamless Operation:
    Experience an intuitive setup and effortless performance that allows you to focus on your creative content rather than technical hurdles. StereoToolBox integrates seamlessly into your workflow, ensuring a smooth on‑air operation every time.

  • Unrivaled Value:
    Enjoy professional‑grade sound processing and feature-rich functionality without the premium price. StereoToolBox offers outstanding performance and comprehensive features in one robust package—proving that high‑quality audio processing doesn’t need to come at a high‑price point.

  • Our Quick set up:
    Allows you to set up audio parameters, processing parameters and repair parameters
    making getting on the air within minutes easy
  • Seven easy sliders:
    Adjusts audio easily without delving into menus.
  • MicroMPX:
    The industry standard STL codec designed by Thimeo Audio Technology and used by processing, codec and transmitter manufacturers worldwide. MicroMPX gives you the capability of sending a full FM signal at bitrates as low as 320kbps. MicroMPX can send the full FM signal including RDS data to multiple FM transmitters. MicroMPX can also be used for off-site monitoring of streams.
  • MicroMPX+:
    MicroMPX+ gives you the ability to send full FM signal at rates as low as 176kbps,making it ideal for satellite, 4G links.
  • Built-in set of analysis tools:
    Including digital oscilloscope, FFT spectrum analyzer and many other features making audio adjustments easily.

Perfect Declipper:
Repairs and restores peaks from clipped audio, removes distortion, and restores dynamics. It’s perfect for repairing audio that has been damaged by clipping during mastering.
Delossifier:
Improves the sound of audio compressed with MPEG2/MP3. It reduces pre-ringing and fills spectrum gaps.
Dehummer:
Removes unwanted constant sounds, such as 50/60Hz from bad cables.
Noise Gate:
Removes background noise, which may occur in older recordings.
Phase repair:
Repairs phase issues in audio such as timing misalignment and overly large phase differences.
Natural Dynamics:
Restores dynamic range and punch in compressed recordings.
Speech detection:
When broadcasting voice only such as during news or sports, you may want different processing, and this automatically detects it and switches to the processing best suited for the audio.
Adaptive Compressor:
Our powerful adaptive compressor dynamically adapts its behaviour to the input. Because of that it can handle massive volume differences, eliminating the need for multiple stages such as AGC and multiple multiband compressors stages. The resulting audio is more consistent than it would be with these separate stages, and simultaneously can be much more open. It is also much easier to adjust.
The adaptive multiband compressor can run from 2 to 9 bands, a traditional dynamics design with 1 to 4 band AGC and two 2 to 9 band multiband compressors is also available.
True Bass:
Generate lowers harmonics (deep bass tones) that are missing from the original recordings.
Bass Exciter:
Creates bass harmonics which will help enhance the bass on smaller speakers which aren’t always suited to show off the bass.
BS412 limiter:
Our implementation uses multiple methods to predict future audio to minimize unnecessary effects on audio and maintain consistency in audio.
Intelligent Composite Clipper:
Gives you 2-3dB more loudness than traditional clipping. Your audio will be louder, more dynamic, less clipped sounding, with better stereo and more highs. It will also increase the stereo reception area, and actively protect against multipath reception issues.
AM Brilliance:
Reshapes the audio highs to be pleasantly audible on AM, improving intelligibility.
RDS/RDS2 built in encoders:
Full fledged RDS encoder, with remote control via among others UECP and ASCII commands. With RDS2, stations can send logos, and long PS texts with a maximum of 32 UTF-8 bytes, meaning character coding in all languages worldwide is possible.
Streaming:
IceCast streaming with support for AAC, HE-AAC, HE-AAC 2, MP3 and ogg/Vobis.
Kantar, Nielsen and Intrasonics watermarking
HTML 5 web interface, JSON remote control interface:
Access your box from any tablet, phone, PC or MAC – anything with a modern browser.
Fast and simple software updates

ProFM Broadcast | Angry AudioAdmit it… you love radio. Over-the-air or internet, live or podcast; it doesn’t matter. Getting radio content to your audience is both thrill and challenge. Oh, you’ve sweat a lot from hard work and worry. And come up with clever solutions that would make MacGyver envious. And all the weekends and holidays you’ve sacrificed… if that’s not love, what is it? I love radio too. I spent the last 25 years designing and building studio products – mostly mixing consoles – for PR&E, Telos, Axia and Lawo. If you’re in radio, you’ve likely encountered my designs. Along the way I’ve visited your studios. Heard your war-stories. Learned a lot. And in all those stories there’s one takeaway: details matter. Sure, we usually pay the most attention to the big-ticket gear, like consoles, transmitters and processors. But have you ever noticed that you can spend a disproportionate amount of time trying to figure out answers to small problems those big products don’t solve? Problems that escalate fast when left unaddressed. Maybe you just need an extra input for a smartphone. Or an automated way to handle an emergency alert. A custom mix to record phone calls. An amplifier for a long cable. Maybe you’re chasing ground-loop hum, or trying to make a PC sound card sound better. Like you, I sweat the details. That’s why I started Angry Audio: to make products that solve these nagging problems. Products that allow you to build systems that do what you want, the way you want. Our products – we call them audio gadgets – are each laser-focused on addressing one or two details. They are inexpensive and easy to use. And, because radio can be rough, they’re damned near indestructible too. I have to confess: I am a bit of a fanatic for sound quality. Our audio gadgets all deliver the kind of transparent audio performance you’d expect to find in the most discerning recording studio. Some have told me this is overkill for radio. I disagree. The tools you use to create and deliver compelling radio should be just as sharp as those used to master music. One last thing: please bookmark our site, and visit us often. We have more than a dozen gadgets in development and will be launching new ones every few months. Sooner or later, we’re going to launch a gadget that solves a nagging problem for you. Which might just help you get home for dinner on time for a change. You gotta love that. Michael “Catfish” Dosch Angry Audio
