RME Introduces HDSPe AoX Series PCIe Interface Cards and AD/DA Converter for High Channel Count Audio Networking

RME announced its latest HDSPe AoX series 4x PCI Express interface cards to connect very large numbers of audio channels on audio networks. The HDSPe AoX cards combine dual networking ports with headphone output, AES3, MIDI, and internal expansion headers for up to four MADI ports. RME also announced its new M-1620 Pro AD/DA converter with 16 analog line levels to and from digital, and separate Coax and SFP MADI, ADAT digital sources. Both systems are available in Dante and AVB models.

DirectOut Technologies has significantly expanded the capabilities of its recently released EXBOX.MD Dante/MADI interface, with a major firmware and software update. The German networking and pro audio specialist company previewed the updated EXBOX.MD at the AES Milan 2018 Convention, demonstrating it to be one of the most flexible Dante bridges presently on the market.

With many studios and professional audio companies embracing Dante audio networking solutions, digital connectivity becomes a simple, versatile, and reliable process. Responding to that trend, TASCAM has unveiled two innovative new additions to their line of Dante-enabled offerings. Designed to provide powerful and flexible connectivity between analog and digital components, the TASCAM ML-32D and ML-16D are multichannel Line Level to Dante and Dante to Line Level interfaces.

Announced in September 2014, Sennheiser now confirms the availability of its Dante card for the EM 9046 receiver, enabling the top-of-the-range Digital 9000 wireless microphone system to be integrated into Dante audio-over-IP networks. Sennheiser also updated its Digital 9000 firmware and the new Wireless Systems Manager 4.2 software with a set of optimized monitoring functions.
