Wheatstone will exhibit at IBC, featuring several new or recently introduced products.
The Neuron FM/HD/DAB+ will make its IBC debut. It is a spectral audio processor that promises “the big sound and features of a top-line processor at half the price.”
It provides separate paths for FM and HD/DAB+. Features include a multipath mitigator, SCAs and stereo generator, RBDS/RDS generator and Wheatstone baseband192 for digitizing the multiplex spectrum and eliminating the analog composite interface between processing and transmission.
The Wheatstream Duo is a streaming appliance for provisioning, processing and managing the metadata of two input channels (four outputs each). The company says it “provides all the reliability of a Linux appliance for not much more than the cost of an equivalent PC.”
The Neuron and Duo won Radio World “Best of Show” Awards at the spring NAB Show.
Also at IBC, Wheatstone will feature its latest Navigator AoIP software for its IP audio network.
“Navigator 5.0 adds new network I/O diagnostics, failover management and automatic system backup capabilities, plus extended logic status to third-party devices and other advancements for today’s evolving studio operations,” the company said.
The software is for managing the WheatNet IP distributed AoIP network of devices and virtual interfaces. It includes tools for setting up crosspoints, logic signals, AES67 paths, salvos and SNMP alerting across the network.
And an audio driver based on the Linux OS is now available for the network, for bidirectional audio streaming between elements and across the AoIP studio environment. The company noted that Linux is known for its stability as an open-source operating system without vulnerabilities often associated with Windows OS.
