Editor’s note:
*We recently decided to name our software simply Audirvana, and no longer Audirvana Plus. The “Plus” was originally added because we thought of offering a premium version of the software. But down the road, deactivating features in order to design a more basic version seemed artificial, and we found that the “Plus” designation was confusing to customers. Now our brand name is our product: Audirvana.
