Flow DSP Announces Exciting Integrations and Partnerships at CES 2025

One of the most unexpected booths at NAMM 2025 was undoubtedly that of Flow DSP, the Integrated Development Environment for Audio that was created by Tymphany and is now becoming a separate business unit. Flow DSP has recently joined the Qualcomm Voice & Music Extension Program to help deliver innovative DSP and AI solutions for the audio industry running on Snapdragon Sound platforms. The Flow DSP team also announced an exciting integration with Elk Audio, creating an embedded Linux platform that runs VSTs with 2ms latency.

Swedish startup Elk, developers of the claimed "world’s lowest latency audio OS," announced the commercial availability of its Elk LIVE real time remote collaboration music service (formerly Aloha by Elk). The system, which promises to solve the constraints still restricting live-collaboration between musicians over the Internet, is available to pre-order now, with the hardware interface scheduled to start shipping in early Q4 2021.

Elk, the Swedish company behind the Elk Audio Operating System for embedded audio products, now announced a new real-time remote music creation and performance platform with its Aloha by Elk service. The platform allows musicians to play, teach and collaborate together live and in sync from different locations. According to Elk, in order to avoid any latency, the new Aloha collaboration service runs on high-speed Internet and over 5G networks "transforming music creation and performance today with a clear path to the future."
