The MediaMatrix Nion nE is a DSP platform designed for cost-efficiency and mid-market applications of the Nion platform, offering nWare capability to a broader array of designers and contractors.
Nion nE will support up to 32 channels of analogue audio, and up to 64 channels of AES digital audio via four Nio card slots in the Nion nE frame. It uses the same Nio cards as a standard Nion frame, so users get the same selection and variety of input and output options, including the new Nio-AEC echo cancellation card. The Nion nE also accepts CobraNet or Dante digital audio transport network cards, which are optional.
‘The Nion nE is built on the same foundation as the Nion n6 and n3,’ says Charles Anderson, Engineering Supervisor for MediaMatrix. ‘Designers and contractors can expect the same high-quality audio performance, and the same complement of DSP power and capability. The idea behind the new Nion nE is simple; keep all of the horsepower of the Nion engine, fully support the capabilities of nWare, but reduce the cost to make the MediaMatrix processing and distribution system available to the middle market segment.’
