With the release of v1.0.2, Lawo has added new features and ASIO direct monitoring support to its Jade audio and broadcast production system. The PC-based system acts as mediator between audio hardware and software, allowing the use of multiple audio interfaces for one or multiple audio applications without restrictions. The update allows low-latency monitoring connections for ASIO devices, centrally managed in Jade environments, and adds up to four independent WDM driver instances, enabling separate audio input and output connections for applications that rely on windows audio driver interfaces.

Additionally, a limited access mode now permits hiding the access to the configuration for easy and failsafe end-user operation. Finally, the VST plug-in host is now part of Jade Pro. This applies also to existing licenses in field, when updating the system with the new release.

Edit, Lawo’s audio editing software, is designed to bring optimised workflow and faster operation to radio production. Version 5.2.2 Edit allows seamless integration into d’accord database environments. This includes bidirectional exchange of audio files and projects, powerful metadata and marker handling, and one-click software launch from d’accord user interfaces.

Both releases are cost free, and available via the Lawo website.
