Campbell, Calif. –June, 2005 – Octave Systems, Inc. a leading technology innovator, today unveiled its new line of Copy Master II CD/DVD duplicators, allowing Houses of Worship to quickly and efficiently duplicate services or special programs onto CDs and DVDs in time to hand them out to members as they leave.

Inspired by the technology behind the original and successful Copy Master line, the user-friendly Copy Master II has outstanding speed, storage capacity and quality. This next generation product offers tower-style models that can provide 1-to-7, 1-to-5, 1-to-3, and 1-to-1 duplication depending on the user’s needs and can duplicate DVDs up to 16X, 8.5 GB Dual Layered DVDs up to 4X and CDs up to 48X.

As specific examples of its speed, a seven-drive Copy Master II can produce seven full 4.7 GB DVDs in seven minutes, and seven full 650 MB CDs can be produced in three minutes. It can duplicate standard 120mm CDs and DVDs, but also several of the popular business-card shaped discs and mini CD/DVD formats. The five, three and one Copy Master II drives produce DVDs and CDs at the same speed respectively.

A significant new addition to the Copy Master II is the quick-start Auto Copy feature, which allows users to load up the master and blanks and start the duplication process by pressing the new Copy button. There are four additional convenience buttons – Copy, Test, Speed and Source. The Copy button allows the user to quickly and conveniently begin the duplication process. The Test button tests the copy process without actually writing to the media. The Speed button sets the speed of the copy. The Source button changes the master source of the information the user wants copied from the DVD-ROM or CD-ROM to the hard disc.”
