Grammy Awards on February 11 in Los Angeles: Munich Software Company Celemony to Receive the Music Industry's Highest Distinction

MUNICH, February 8, 2012/PRNewswire/ --

"And the Technical Grammy goes to: Celemony!" - on February 11 in Los Angeles, the
Munich-based company will be the first German software manufacturer ever to be honored by
the Recording Academy with its Technical Grammy, which is given in recognition of
"contributions of outstanding technical significance to the recording field." Grammys are
the music business's highest distinction - the equivalent of Oscars in the film industry.

The software company Celemony revolutionized recording studio technology around ten
years ago with a program called Melodyne that offered a radically new and distinctly
musical approach to audio editing. Polished, expanded and recognized many times with
awards over the years, Melodyne today counts almost all musicians and producers of note
among its customers. The Who guitarist Pete Townshend regards the software as "a miracle",
Ultravox singer Midge Ure calls it "blackmagic", Katy Perry producer Dr. Luke and
multimedia visionary Peter Gabriel both love it, and jazz legend Herbie Hancock considers
it a "must-have" for musicians.

"We are delighted by this great honor and very proud as a small Munich software house
to be receiving such notable international recognition for our work," says the company's
founder and Melodyne inventor Peter Neubacker, who along with his three partners will be
in Los Angeles for the presentation.
