Linear Acoustic has announced the integration of its Aero platform into Imagine Communications’ VersioCloud cloud-based broadcast playout platform. Via the Linear Acoustic Aero platform – a software-based audio and loudness control engine – VersioCloud includes integrated loudness control and processing, further reducing costs associated with linear channel playout.
‘This is the logical, flexible way television will exist starting from now,’ says Tim Carroll, Telos Alliance CTO and Linear Acoustic founder.
The Linear Acoustic Aero platform comprises Aero.stream and Aero.soft. Aero.stream is a real-time processor identical in function to existing Linear Acoustic hardware products, including loudness and dynamic range control, upmixing, downmixing, and ITU-R BS.1770-3 loudness metering. Aero.soft is a faster-than-real-time file-based Calm and EBU R128 compliant loudness correction and upmixing tool. The Aero platform enables fast integration of best-in-class real-time and file-based audio tools into third-party systems via simple, hassle-free licensing.‘This partnership enables any Imagine Communications customer to have simple, cost-effective, cloud-based access to the gold standard in audio and loudness control with no need for external hardware boxes or interruptions to new streamlined workflows,’ says Imagine Communications CTO, Steve Reynolds.
