Dear Partner,
The end of 2023 is coming fast, we’re looking back on a great year with beautiful projects, great meetings with both customers and suppliers and great changes within our company.
Our office construction is also about to be finished and we’re slowly moving our inventory with the aim to be operational from this location starting the new year.
We like to use this moment to thank all our customers, suppliers, friends, passing acquaintances and family for the efforts this year.
Traditionally we’ve donated to the local animal rescue organisation.
CUE2024
15 to the 17th of January the CUE show is hosted in Ahoy Rotterdam. We’re on stand 1.501 and display Xilica, Blaze, NewHank, ACX, Audinate, ProDJuser and Relacart. We’re also showing the online conference solution with Xilica in combination with Sennheiser and you can use the show to connect with us personally over a cup of coffee. You can register using our personal link for free tickets. We’re looking forward meeting you there.
HM4x4S
We’re replacing our HM4x4 4K 4-in 4-out HDMI matrix. The addition of the letter ‘S’ is for Seamless. Where the current model could switch a bit slow caused by Edid synchronisation this new model switches instantly. Apart from this improvement this matrix is also usable for video wall processing. The 4 outputs can be used for a 4x4 setup of screens with the content shared over them.
We’ll have it ready to ship to you from January. For full specs visit the product page.
Stream IT V3
Our Stream IT also will be updated for a new generation. This version will have, next to a lot of changes under the hood, a web-interface for control with a browser and a display in the frontpanel for statusinfo. By using a new Bluetooth chip we made it possible to change, on request, the Bluetooth SSID. This is a request we’ve received back many times, please request the custom SSID at order and we program it in the chip at our workshop before delivery.
For control we’re going back to the 4Stream app as with V1, V2 used the WiiM app. For full specs visit the product page.
Blaze Dante
We’ve already got them in stock for about two months: PowerZone Connect amplifiers 122, 504, 2004 and 3004 are now available with Dante on board. A fantastic feature is the ability to also use the Dante outputs of the Ultimo chip. In the output routing any signal from the amplifier can be routed to the Dante outputs. This can be a zone but also one of the inputs or a mix and with this you basically get a free Dante converter with your amplifier. Cal or mail us for a demo! (Benelux only)
ACX
In our previous newsletter we told you the ACX program is extended with processors. We’ve got the XP and XD series in stock for a while now and on multiple locations we see ACX processors being used now. From January the program is yet again extended, this time with Neutrino processors and ACX Designer software. All known features are there and with the use of Lua drivers the possibilities are endless. Contact us for pricing and see the product page.
