Volume Logic was commercial software which added audio enhancement features to media players. Originally released by Octiv Inc. in 2004, it was the first plug-in for Apple's iTunes for Mac and PC. In April 2005, the Octiv corporation was acquired by Plantronics [http://www.plantronics.com/north_america/en_US/press/releases/index.jhtml?id=pr_20050405_2236_en_US] .

Volume Logic was available for these media players: RealPlayer, Windows Media Player, Winamp and Musicmatch. The final version of Volume Logic added long-waited iTunes 7 for Windows support.

Volume Logic Technology

The Volume Logic plug-in incorporates multi-band dynamics processing technology, solving common audio problems such as speaker distortion and volume shifting.

Volume Logic v1.3

In late 2005, Volume Logic 1.3 was released as the most stable version to date. This new version has been recognized in Softpedia, MacUpdate, and Brothersoft. As of 2006, the company is evaluating a beta of a Universal Binary upgrade for iTunes.

Closing Night & Volume Logic v1.4

Having compatibility issues with Apple's new Mac OS X v10.5, Plantronics has ceased further development with Volume Logic, while leaving windows users with a v1.4, which is compatible with iTunes 7. The main inventor Leif Claesson left the company in April 2005 which closed the door to any improvements.
