AuviTran’s Audio ToolBox AVB card has received Milan certification – the first for a bridge device.
This ensures compatibility with other AVB/Milan certified devices, and supports bridging between AVB/Milan and other audio protocols.
‘We’ve been offering AVB solutions for some time and we’re very proud to be part of the Avnu Alliance and receive Milan certification,’ says AuviTran founder and CEO, Yves Ansade. ‘With many users needing to interface Milan to other protocols, Dante or Madi for example, our Audio ToolBoxes have become a popular solution.’
Audio ToolBox card frames are available in three and seven slot versions and can be loaded with cards for multiple audio protocols. Available cards include AVB/Milan, Dante/AES67, CobraNet, AES/EBU, EtherSound and Adat, along with a variety of analogue and iigital I/O options. Once configured, users can matrix signals between protocols and, with the addition of an optional ADSP card, can sample rate convert between them – for example, bridging between a 96kHz AVB/Milan and 48kHz Dante or Madi.
In addition to bridging between protocols, Audio Toolbox has a new automation function that can manage presets, fallback from one protocol/card to another, loss of clock sync, muting or changing signal routing, and other features, all triggered from GPIO contact or scheduled events.
