Following the recent presentation of the Ravenna open-technology standard to work groups and committees at AES and EBU, Georg Neumann has joined the growing list of supporting manufacturers.

‘Integrating audio network technology with our Solution-D digital microphone system has time and again proven to be a successful path,’ says Neumann Development President, Stephan Peus. ‚This has become apparent again this summer, with many live events, like open-air concerts, and installed sound applications.

‘We are pleased to have found in Ravenna an open and IP-based network technology,’ he continues. ‘Besides handling the audio stream, it also provides the possibility to remote control our digital microphones, thereby facilitating their full integration with mixing consoles. Especially for customers of the Lawo Group, the advantages of digital microphone technology are straightforward, with direct remote control from their consoles.

‘We believe that Ravenna, with its growing number of participating companies, will find rapid diffusion and acceptance, in the studio as well as in the recording world.’

‘Neumann is a welcome addition to the Ravenna group as the company has a longstanding tradition in the professional audio market,’ says Andreas Hildebrand, Senior Product Manager of Ravenna developer, ALC NetworX. ’With its experience in microphone and speaker design it will strengthen the knowledge base of the Ravenna community and - together with the existing members – broadens the spectrum of Ravenna-enabled products and solutions for the Professional Broadcast market. The growing support for the Ravenna community underlines the demand for an IP-based media distribution technology based on open technology and standards.’
