Merging solutions land on Lawo's Home platform

The IP Home infrastructure management platform Theirs becomes compatible with all solutions Merging Technologies.

All IP products Merging, among which are their virtual audio devices and, soon, also its interfaces Anubis, Horus and Hapi, will benefit from the detection and instant IP registration, he intuitive flow routing, the device monitoring, he diagnosis, he parameter control and the security features what the platform offers Home, all enabled through a single control API. Thanks to this initiative, for example, the parameters of the products of Merging They can be adjusted from one of the consoles of the serie mc² that have the Home function incorporated. Pre-shipped and eligible Merging Technologies software and hardware can be added to the Home ecosystem through a simple firmware update that will be available before IBC 2022.

Christian Struck, senior product manager audio production de Theirs, applauds Merging Technologies' decision to support Home: "Operators often take advantage of the sonic excellence of Merging audio preamplifiers in combination with a Lawo mc² series console. A direct line of communication between the two provides centralized access to full parameter settings and all the real-time information, security and control that today's operators require."

Claude Cellier, general director of Merging Technologies, share the opinion from Struck: "We find the Merging products and the Lawo Home platform are a perfect match. More and more users have asked us for a way to remotely control our preamps from a Lawo mc² console. In addition to complete operational convenience, Home provides lightning-fast discovery, registration, and much more. We are confident that the Merging Technologies user base will appreciate these control and monitoring features."

Lawo llega a Oasis de Merging Technologies

On the other hand, Theirs has confirmed that all its products become compatible with Oasis, the protocol itself Merging Technologies based on Ethernet. This move will optimize the interconnection of systems and simplify workflows involving products from both companies. Maurice Engler, product and project manager at Merging, comments: "This development represents a truly significant advantage for users in a variety of scenarios, including live broadcast, recording and post-production. We very much welcome this initiative from Lawo."

Finally, Christian Struck of Theirs added that the next version of Lawo's audio production software, the V10.2.4, will offer “broad compatibility” with Merging Technologies tools Pyramix y Ovation, among other news.
