msm-Studio, a leading German BD/DVD mastering and post production house specialising in high-resolution audio, announced that its technology, mShuttle, has been used for the first time by Norwegian label 2L for its recent Pure Audio Blu-ray release. Users can copy Ole Bull's Violin Concertos from the Blu-ray disc via a network connection to a computer – as WAV, MP3 or FLAC file, then transfer it to any MP3 players or burn a CD.

Pure Audio Blu-ray was developed by msm-Studios in cooperation with 2L Lindberg Lyd. It combines the Blu-ray format's vast storage capacity and bandwidth necessary for high resolution audio (up to 192 kHz/24Bit) in surround and stereo with the easy handling of a CD.

All functions of a Pure Audio Blu-ray can be operated by remote control without the need of a TV screen. The preferred audio format (e.g. 2.0 LPCM or 5.1 DTS -HD Master) is selected via the four colour buttons featured on the remote control of any Blu-ray player.

Stefan Bock, MD of msm-Studios, is convinced that mShuttle makes Pure Audio Blu-ray an attractive proposition: "With this innovation we provide the possibility to enjoy music content from a Blu-ray disc in any format. Perfect listening experience of Pure Audio Bluray in studio quality at home, MP3 on the road, or CD quality in the car. mShuttle provides the perfect format for any situation."





mShuttle will be demonstrated at the forthcoming Blu-ray Disc Academy, 19 May at Frankfurt, Germany. Visit www.blurayacademy.com for more information.
