US innovator Source Elements has expanded its Source-Nexus remote collaboration plug-in with the release of Source-Nexus Suite, combining everything needed for remote collaboration and review.
The software suite includes Source-Nexus I/O; a powerful audio input-output routing solution that integrates DAWs/NLEs with other applications; Source-Nexus Review that eliminates away the complexity of audio routing for remote collaboration; and Source-Nexus Gateway that glues these features together to offer HD video conferencing with high-quality audio support and ultra-HD frame-rate streaming. This workflow keeps the focus on a project while improving the review process for engineers and clients.
Launched ten years ago, Source Elements first introduced the Source-Nexus plug-in cross-application DAW routing for remote collaboration and aiding the consolidation from hardware to an all-software desktop environment. Having inspired many manufacturers, inter-application routing is now standard fare in most popular DAWS. Source Elements is innovating again with the launch of their expanded Source-Nexus Suite.
Source Elements co-founder and Head of Innovation, Robert Marshall, says that ‘as a working sound engineer, Source-Nexus Suite means that I can rely on sharing time-critical work with remote clients without worrying about compromising audio quality on consumer video conferencing systems’.
The new Source-Nexus Suite alone is a powerful standalone toolset. When paired with Source Element’s Source-Connect it creates an environment for remote recording sessions. Together remote sessions run smoothly with virtually no set-up time keeping clients and talent focused. The interoperability between DAWs and browsers keeps the workflow simple for recording engineers. This helps keep media projects on time and within budget while offering the most advanced remote reviewing and recording features available today.
‘Tailored for the media industry and their workstations including video and picture editors, Source-Nexus Suite has already proven a welcome addition to the film and television industry’s toolset,’ the company says.
With full support for Windows and macOS Apple Silicon and Intel, Source-Nexus Suite transforms most DAWs and NLEs to a high-quality remote production suite featuring HD video and audio communications over a browser. The company says that his is the first step in improvements, and customers can look forward to capabilities such as the ability to provide static, flexible audio routing set-ups, Dolby Atmos compatibility in Gateway, among other features.
