25-Seven Systems Inc. is implementing the Axia Audio Livewire IP-Audio standard for delivering studio-quality audio via Ethernet.
25-Seven Systems plans to introduce Livewire compatibility to its Audio Time Manager (ATM) time compression processor at NAB2007, where it will demonstrate both audio and transport control over IP.
“In discussions with the folks at Axia,” said 25-Seven Systems President Geoff Steadman, “it was apparent our companies share a common vision about what the future of audio transport and control looks like — it is a great fit for us.”
According to Axia Audio President Michael Dosch, broadcasters are becoming “increasingly aware” of the advantages of networked studios.
“Tighter integration of broadcast equipment is just one of those advantages, along with ease of connection, data consolidation and the ability to use standard Ethernet for audio routing,” said Dosch.
