Quickly following its 10.12.0 software release, Lawo has announced the availability of version 12.0.0 for its current mc² mixing console systems.
In addition to the features provided by the preceding software release, version 12.0.0 adds native support for the Home mc² DSP App that runs on generic CPU platforms using cloud-native technologies. This release also increases the processing channel count of the mc²36 MkII to 384.
Home mc² DSP, Lawo’s audio processing Home App for mc² mixing console systems, is an alternative offering to the A__UHD Core processor in a CPU-based package for production workflows based on Lawo’s unified, open Home platform where operational agility is key. It runs on generic CPU processors and offers unprecedented granularity for Lawo’s acclaimed mc²-grade DSP processing.
The Home mc² DSP audio engine provides the familiar mc²-style signal processing architecture; support for mono, stereo, 5.1, and immersive formats; and handles up to 2048 input processing channels. Other highlights include 256 Aux busses, 96 Groups, 96 Sums, support for 32 Automix groups, a downmixing function for stereo, 5.1 and immersive processing channels as well as a Co-Mixer feature for monitoring and other collaborative purposes.
In response to user requests, version 12.0.0 also adds 128 processing channels to Lawo’s standalone mc²36 MkII console with onboard A__UHD Core technology, for a total of 384 (previously 256) channels with up to 256 buses. This expansion is free of charge and requires no additional license for mc²36 MkII consoles.
Software release 12.0.0 includes all features introduced by version 10.12.0, notably significant improvements regarding channel assignments and management, Waves integration, an intuitive user experience and increased security features in accordance with EBU R143 cybersecurity guidelines. Users who haven’t yet installed 10.12.0 can install software release 12.0.0 directly, to benefit from all features introduced by versions 10.12.0 and 12.0.0.
