Author: Ton Brand Company: Ton's Software License: Shareware US$10 Computer: PowerPC or iMac Mac OS: 7.5.3 or later Abstract: HTML-Optimizer is the ideal tool for managing your web site.

Checking the so called tagged pairs, i.e. the tags that always have to appear together with their end tags. Further, IMG tags are checked for Width, Height and Alt attributes. Missing attributes are added with values which are automatically detected. 3. Checking the validity of the internal hyperlinks, 8 levels deep. 4. Marking dangling tags and missing attributes to find and fix them quickly. 5. Converting special characters to the &....; notation.

SFX Machine has long been regarded as one of the most powerful, easy-to-use sound mangling appliance available for the Mac. It has won Electronic Musician's Editor's Choice Award, a Key Buy award from Keyboard Magazine, and acclaim from dozens of leading sound designers and composers. It is now available direct from its author, The Sound Guy, at a new low price. This try-before-you-buy copy of SFX Machine is fully functional the first ten times you launch it; thereafter, it will act as a demo until purchased. This plug-in can be used as a sample creation tool, a sound design tool, or a multi-effects unit that goes far beyond the usual types of effects. It has a simple front-end that lets you load presets and modify them using sliders. Almost 400 presets are included, and others will be available from our web site. In addition, a powerful modular synthesis engine lets you create your own effects. If you want, the Randomize button will make something up for you. The 1.5x version features a number of improvements. First, it no longer uses the key-disk and challenge/response copy protection. More importantly, SFX Machine 1.5x sounds better than ever before, with higher precision calculations for less noise and more transparency. In addition, SFX Machine is now optimized for G4s. SFX Machine requires a Power Macintosh and a Premiere-format host program. It works with Peak, Deck, Vision, Premiere, Digital Performer, Logic Audio, Metro, and TurboMorph. SFX Machine 1.5x is available only from the Sound Guy, sfx@sfxmachine.com, .
