RTW has announced Dante-Enabled versions of its TouchMonitor audio monitoring TM7 and TM9 units.
‘RTW focuses on visualising audio in order to let audio engineers take informed decisions in professional broadcast, production, postproduction and quality control,’ says RTW CEO, Andreas Tweitmann ‘Now, it is possible to also benefit from this valuable visual feedback on Dante and AES67-based audio networks.
A TouchMonitor with Dante connectivity is able to monitor up to 32 audio channels at sample rates up to 96kHz. The selected sample rate does not affect the channel count, which means that users can always rely on keeping their eyes on up to 32 channels across the IP Audio Network at any given time.
Apart from measuring critical audio-related factors such as Loudness, True-Peak, Correlation, Frequency Distribution, etc., users now also get instant and visible feedback on the overall status of the audio network. This allows for quick troubleshooting and identification of potential problems that may cause critical downtime. The new units also support redundant network connectivity to ensure that users always have an overview of their audio at a glance.
TouchMonitor TM7 and TM9 with Dante compatibility automatically detect and adapt to Dante channel names, which in turn makes routing a breeze when setting up the audio metering system on the network. Additionally, RTW has implemented uncompressed, multichannel digital audio technology that results in near-zero latency and synchronization performance for obtaining the most reliable and consistent results possible.
TouchMonitor TM7-Dante and TM9-Dante will be available globally from Q2 2019.
