Merging Technologies announced the availability of Pyramix V.14, an update made to measure for the latest requirements that have suddenly been thrown to studios and producers all over the world. With music streaming services transitioning to spatial audio mixes in Dolby Atmos, and requiring both more original content and repurposing of existing recordings, Pyramix V.14 focuses on retaining the highest quality processes that the software is recognized for, while automating tasks as much as possible.

Merging Technologies will arrive in Amsterdam with a significantly enhanced product range. This has more to do with ensuring that the company’s main products address the new workflow demands of broadcasters than only taking advantage of new components. Pyramix, Ovation, VCube, Horus, Hapi and ANEMAN all have something notable to entice visitors to stand 8.E96 at RAI. Merging is sharing this space with its Swiss neighbours, PSI Audio and Sonosax.
