EXTON, Pa., Aug. 18 /PRNewswire/ -- Media Supply, Inc., the nation's largest wholesaler of premium quality CD and DVD recordable media, has added an advanced duplicating tower to its popular Omnitower(R) line. Evolving from the original, low cost, 3 and 7 drive Omnitower(R) duplicators, the new OmniTowerSL(R), features Premium Plextor(R) PX-716 slot-load drives in a striking black case.

"This is cutting edge," commented Frank Quinlisk, Media Supply Vice- President. "The OmniTowerSL(R) is the only slot load DVD tower available today with the mechanism to copy discs at a recording speed of 16x. We developed this tower to bring innovative features and performance to our professional customers desiring ease of use, optimum recording speed and Plextor's 'Intelligent Recording' features," he said.

"Intelligent Recording" is a combination of technologies designed to achieve high-quality results when using media of varying quality:

1. Intelligent Tilt(TM), a precise laser and three-dimensional tilt
control to reduce jitter and achieve optimum recording
2. PoweRec(R), a write strategy that provides superior quality recording
at maximum speed for certified media
3. Autostrategy(R), a feature that determines the standard deviation
mark of any blank disc and then automatically optimizes the write
strategy for the unknown media

Media Supply has also developed a Quick Start Guide and detailed Operating Manual specifically tailored to the OmniTowerSL(R). Omnitowers(R), known for affordability, speed, accuracy and reliability, offer finely tuned firmware and software tested for compatibility and clean operation.

What sets the OmniTowerSL(R) apart?
* A tray-less eject mechanism, which cuts normal media load times in
half.
* Compatibility with 80mm (Mini Disc) Media, so there are no limits on
what you can record.
* High speed 16x DVD-R, 6x DVD +/- R Dual Layer and 48x CD-R, which
eliminates the need for a separate CD tower.
* IntelligentTilt(TM) provides optimum recording for uneven disc
surfaces. Designed for DL discs, it makes all recording better.
* The Media Supply user-friendly OmniTowerSL(R) user's manual and quick-
start guide, historically an Omnitower(R) strong point.
* Finely tuned firmware and software tested for compatibility and clean
operation.
