DiGiCo Reveals Quantum852 Flagship Large-Format Live Audio Production Mixing Console

DiGiCo announced the launch of its next generation of large-format live audio production mixing consoles, designed from the ground up. Familiar, yet different, and with improved audio quality via enhanced algorithms, the new DiGiCo Quantum852 delivers a massive leap forward in processing power, it features new 1000-nit LCD screens for full daylight operation and a newly designed worksurface. And true to the DiGiCo ethos, the Quantum852 has been designed not just for now, but for the future.

Soundboks, the Danish company that is also one of the most unexpected startups to ever succeed in the audio lifestyle space, continues to grow and just announced its second design in seven years. Being the famous inventors of the gigantic Soundboks Bluetooth speaker that required a reinforced dedicated backpack to be called portable, Soundboks now announced the launch of the Soundboks Go Speaker. This lighter, battery—powered version is still a big speaker for the segment, and uses an efficient Infineon Merus two-channel Class D amplifier.

LG Electronics and California-based Audioburst announced a collaboration to build the next cutting-edge in-car infotainment systems for leading automakers, giving consumers new ways to access and explore voice search and content, and brands deeper analysis around that usage in-car. LGE will be the first company to integrate Audioburst Deep Analysis API for Live Audio Streams. The experience, still in stealth mode, will be unveiled in January to select audiences at CES 2019 in Las Vegas.
