Product Description

Short EN

Kirin OS 1.0 is a measurement-first production workflow by Kirin Mastering.

Short JA

Kirin OS 1.0 は、Kirin Mastering が開発する測定起点の制作ワークフローです。

Long EN

Kirin OS 1.0 is a measurement records workflow by Kirin Mastering. It keeps measured records available when preparing, comparing, handing off, or delivering. MASKING and TRACE are views for inspecting measured records, not separate products. Kirin OS is not an audio processor and does not replace the user's decisions. It gives the measurement back to the production process.

Long JA

Kirin OS 1.0 は、Kirin Mastering が開発する測定記録のワークフローです。測定結果を、準備・比較・引き渡し・納品のときに立ち返れる記録として扱います。MASKING と TRACE は測定記録を確認するための表示であり、独立した製品ではありません。Kirin OS は音声を直接加工する機能ではなく、ユーザーの判断を置き換えるものでもありません。制作の過程に、測定の視界を戻すためのワークフローです。
