RTW has released critical loudness upgrades for its DigitalMonitor 10500X-Plus, SurroundControl 31900/31960 and SurroundMonitor 11900 lines, adapting their loudness functionality to current guidelines and standards.

The two-channel DigitalMonitor 10500X-Plus features a PPM display, a vectorscope, an RTA, an AES/EBU status monitor and is also used for visualising digital signals. Except for true peak and LRA, the unit’s loudness functions will now comply with EBU R128. In addition, the 10500X allows emulation of other loudness standards by editing various default parameters. The DigitalMonitor 10500X-Plus processes AES3 signals with sample rates of up to 96kHz. All 10500X units shipped to date can be upgraded with the new firmware version.

SurroundControl 31900Similarly, the firmware upgrades the SurroundControl 31900/31960 and SurroundMonitor 11900 eight-channel instruments. The SurroundControl 31900 and 31960 versions include surround-monitoring controllers and provide enhanced routing options. The two ranges will implement all metering functions specified by ITU BS.1770/1771 and EBU R128 (including the EBU Mode). The units display PPM and loudness bargraphs for each channel as well as momentary, short-term and integrated measurements such as summing bargraphs. In addition, they support true-peak and LRA metering.

The upgrades are expected to be released in July 2011. All units shipped after that time will have the upgrade facilities as standard.
