D&b: definitive commitment to MILAN IP protocol for NAMM and ISE 2024

MILANO si posiziona come principale base tecnologica d&b soluzioni nel quadro della NAMM E MENTRE 2024, dove l'azienda presenterà prodotti preparati per questo protocollo come il ponte audio DS20, il processore di segnale DS100M e l'amplificatore di potenza D90.

The protocol that structures the present and future of d&b, MILANO, promette di offrire minore complessità, massima interoperabilità, maggiore ridondanza e indipendenza da fornitori specifici o tecnologia di terze parti. Secondo il marchio e certifica Marco Rembold, product manager DSP & Networks in d&b audiotechnik, this protocol will not mean that it will no longer support the Dante environments, but an alternative that each user can choose if they so choose: “MILAN represents one of the most significant technological advances in the audio industry, and it’s been equally important for d&b to incorporate it. Our commitment to providing these solutions is evident in our approach, allowing users to embrace the future with confidence, while retaining the flexibility to choose between MILAN and Dante”.

IL DS20 audio network bridge is designed to provide a “cost-effective and integrated” connection between d&b and MILAN systems. The DS20 network bridge acts as an interface between d&b amplifiers and the MILAN audio transfer protocol and includes impressive technical features such as 16 digital AES 3 output channels, 4 digital AES 3 input channels and an integrated network switch with 5 fully AVB-compliant ports, providing unparalleled flexibility and redundancy. On the other hand, the DS100M il processore di segnale è l'iterazione abilitata per MILANO del DS100 con Dante. Questa soluzione sfrutta la potenza tecnologica di MILANO ed estende le sue funzionalità per fornire un'ampia gamma di funzionalità. Questi includono più canali audio tramite ingressi MILANO, MADI o segnale di clock.

Sia al NAMM che all'ISE, il D90, the d&b new flagship amplifier, will also be unveiled. This amplifier, beyond providing “unparalleled performance and sound quality”, backup capacity for all inputs or increased system efficiency, incorporates MILAN networked audio. Wolfang Schulz, head of product management electronics & software, highlights the latest developments of the brand: “The DS20, DS100M and D90 are the result of extensive research and innovation. They have been designed to not only meet today’s requirements, but to provide future-proof solutions that offer our users unparalleled flexibility, reliability and performance. At d&b, our commitment goes beyond innovation; it’s about enabling our customers to embrace tomorrow’s technology today.”
