With this tool you can mix from anywhere via web browser and centralize your mixing resources on one server or appliance.
Wheatstone calls VMX a new spin on mixing, a virtual mixing platform for adding to studios, production rooms, voicetrack booths and remote mixing instances on demand without big cap-ex costs.
“Simply install VMX on a server and spin up virtual mixers as needed,” it says.
VMX comes with tiles — types of virtual mixers from basic virtual mixer interfaces or utilities to full virtual broadcast consoles.
You enter the URL in a Chrome or Safari browser, and a virtual console comes up on your phone, tablet, laptop or studio touchscreen.
The virtual mixers can serve as permanent additions to a WheatNet IP audio networked facility or for setting up a temporary or remote studio quickly.
“Instead of AoIP mix engines sitting in a rack, mixing instances can be created when and where and how you need them, all done through a virtual mix engine platform that can be deployed on just about any commercial server, PC based unit, or dedicated appliance,” it says.
VMX is AES67-compliant for interoperability within SMPTE ST 2110 facilities and scalable from large enterprise systems to the VMX Nano for remote or emergency broadcast applications.
