SonicStage Software

SonicStage Software

SonicStage software is a new jukebox application that adds a host of new features to its predecessor, OpenMG™ Jukebox. SonicStage software lets you play and record from audio CDs and import digital audio files while maintaining copyright information. Continuing to take advantage of Sony’s copyright-protected ATRAC3™ format for high-quality digital audio storage, SonicStage sports a new music visualizer, a sleek new player skin design, audio CD burning capability, and a parametric equalizer for fine-tuning audio playback.
