Peter White überreicht ANEMAN Entwickler Nicolas Sturmel den IABM Award im Bereich System Automation and Control

Schon lange ist klar: IP ist ein grundlegender Bestandteil der Gegenwart und Zukunft unserer Branche. Deshalb drehte sich dieses Jahr, auch auf der IBC, in erster Linie alles um IP. Als einer der Vorreiter in diesem Bereich, konnte Merging Tech. große Erfolge auf der Show verbuchen. Durch den nun bestehenden Support von SMPTE2110 und AMWA NMOS, welche für den Broadcast-Bereich essentiell sind, war das Interesse an Horus und Hapi sehr groß.

Dazu kommt, dass ANEMAN den Audio Media International Best in Show Award sowie einen IABM Award gewann. Wohl verdient, wie wir finden!

Hier der ausführlichen Press-Release von Merging :

IBC 2017 made sure that IP was at the top of the agenda which perfectly suited Merging’s participation. Hapi was an integral component of the extremely impressive IP Showcase, which featured over 50 vendors with more than 100 different devices demonstrating the real-world possibilities unleashed by the adoption of SMPTE ST2110 draft standards and the AMWA NMOS specifications. The support of many industry bodies such as AES, AIMS, EBU, IABM, MNA and VSF, was reinforced by a full programme of presentations and education sessions running throughout IBC. The Hapi, equipped with a MADI expansion card, acted as a 72 channel ST2110-30 gateway taking flows to and from various other equipment on the network, such as video cameras, mixing consoles, intercom panels, video switchers and multiviewers.

ANEMAN took pride of place in Hall 8. Attracting many other manufacturers and show visitors, this philanthropic enterprise started by picking up the Audio Media International Best in Show Award. On the Saturday night, the IABM selected ANEMAN as the winner in the System Automation and Control category. Beating stiff competition from Dalet, Skyline Communications and SpotX, the judges commented; “Impressive technology with an interoperable and open platform. They have identified a critical core problem faced by the technical staff and developed an elegant solution. This is an innovative product that solves a real and universal challenge.”

New ANEMAN partners, DirectOut Technologies showed how this management tool benefits their popular MONTONE.42 Audio over IP bridge and Merging featured one of these products on the same network as Horus, Hapi, a Ward-Beck preMo-A1 and a pair of Genelec 8430A Studio Monitors. The ease with which these could be connected and reconfigured attracted universal praise. “It was the first time showing ANEMAN at IBC and it was really an exciting few days for me and the team.”; remarked Nicolas Sturmel, Merging’s Senior Technologist and the Product Manager for ANEMAN. “The reaction to ANEMAN and the IP Showcase leaves one in no doubt that Audio over IP is advancing quickly but the management and security of streams becomes an even more urgent issue. We believe that ANEMAN has a vital role to play, by itself or as an integral part of a complete IP solution.”

ANEMAN is now an integral part of Merging’s Pyramix and Ovation programs which further consolidates their position leading the pack of immersive audio tools. Major advances into this world were made with the previous introduction of 3D panning and plug ins for binaural and ambisonics for VR projects. IBC saw the showing of a tool set for broadcasters to address the Audio Definition Module (ADM ITU-R BS.2076) and MPEG-H (by Fraunhofer IIS) export requirements. Pyramix 11.1 is the first DAW with a complete workflow to generate master files with Object-Based Audio (OBA) metadata according to the Audio Definition Model (ADM) or MPEG-H 3D audio. This now transforms the former OBA workflow, primarily designed for Dolby Atmos mixing for film or immersive live performance, into a comprehensive workflow for TV production with the addition of multi-language support and ADM format export.

Merging Technologies continues to show leadership in audio networking with its highly successful Horus and Hapi interfaces, OEM AES67 solutions with ZMan and ANEMAN network management software.
