Amber Technology has been appointed to to sell and support Nugen Audio products in Australia and New Zealand, adding loudness metering and correction solutions to Amber’s portfolio of audio-processing tools for broadcast, music, and postproduction applications.
‘We already provide loudness metering and correction solutions for critical real-time environments such as live broadcast and transmission, but some of our key customers have been asking for additional tools that can operate efficiently in file-based and non-real-time workflows, and also allow them to automate certain processes,’ says Julius Chan, Amber Technology Specialist Sales Engineer for audio products in the broadcast and professional segment. ‘Nugen is right on the bleeding edge in terms of loudness metering, correction, and true peak limiting tools and offers great value for the money. They came highly recommended by our customers.’
Amber Technology represents major broadcast and professional audio brands in an expansive portfolio, including Avid, Blue Microphones, DPA Microphones, EVS, Radial Engineering, Snell, Solid State Logic and TC Electronic. After talking to many of its customers, Amber Technology chose Nugen Audio’s software-based loudness metering products for their ability to accommodate file-based workflows in post and ingest, cope with a vast array of plug-in formats for nearly any video/audio workstation, and natively support AAX for Avid Pro Tools clients. Other key requirements were batch processing of archives and a faster-than-real-time, automated workflow.
Nugen Audio’s VisLM-H visual loudness monitoring tool, coupled with the ISL intersample true-peak limiter will enable Australian broadcasters to ensure compliance with OP-59, the Australia’s guide for measuring loudness in soundtracks for television broadcasting.
‘Amber Technology is one of the largest and most respected distributors in the region,’ says Nugen Audio Creative Director, Jon Schorah. ‘This partnership will make available Nugen Audio products that the region’s broadcasters have been asking for, helping them to comply easily with new loudness regulations.’
