Since its introduction, IEEE open-standard Audio Video Bridging (AVB) technology has grown into an industry-standard connectivity protocol adopted by professional audio manufacturers, including d&b audiotechnik, L-Acoustics and Meyer Sound. DiGiCo has introduced its Milan-certified DMI-AVB module to bring interoperability between DMI card slot-equipped consoles and any amplifier, loudspeaker or other system component on a shared Milan AVB network.
The new digital 64×64 AVB card supplies eight streams of eight-channel audio with extremely low latency, supporting both 48kHz and 96kHz formats, and Master/Slave clock mode. The card is fully compatible with all Quantum range desks, the SD12, and any other console model via DiGiCo’s outboard Orange Box.
‘As pro audio’s only deterministic network protocol, Milan has unquestionably proven to be robustly stable and reliably high-quality,’ says DiGiCo MD, Austin Freshwater. ‘As industry professionals increasingly turn to the protocol for its many advantages, we’re pleased to now natively bring our consoles into the Milan ecosystem. Offering truly plug-and-play interoperability, our new DMI-AVB surmounts the challenges and headaches of traditional network setups and allows our customers to fully focus on the joy of creating exceptional mixes.
‘DiGiCo announced its participation in the Avnu Alliance back in October 2021, and we’re excited to finally celebrate their inaugural Milan-certified product, the DMI-AVB,’ says Avnu Alliance President. Dave Cavalcanti. ‘Milan certification ensures a combination of features and ease of use that bring exceptional benefits to audio pros wanting to easily integrate powerful, cost-effective networked audio solutions, and we’re glad that DiGiCo is now officially a part of our growing family.’
