Merging Technologies provides advanced audio capabilities to Dataton at InfoComm MEA 2012

  WATCHOUT and Ovation synchronize video and audio cues

Puidoux, Switzerland, October 2012: Merging Technologies will support Dataton to demonstrate TCP/IP based advanced channel audio and video display on the Dataton stand TA-C40 at InfoComm MEA 2012.

Merging Technologies are the creators of the Ovation media server and sequencer. Advanced audio features such as the incorporation of 300+ tracks of playback, management and treatment of live audio inputs, a comprehensive internal mix engine with 256 busses and a full complement of EQ/Dynamics/processing, control protocol I/O and the immense power of the MassCore Audio Engine will be demonstrated at InfoComm MEA 2012.

All these features can easily be integrated with Dataton WATCHOUT multi-image display and presentation software.

"The Ovation cue containing multitrack audio and control information is now possible over standard Layer3 networks. This synchronization is capable of having a WATCHOUT master providing a reference to multiple Ovations, allowing for remote Ovation sequencers to be placed at various points in a much larger installation if required", says Johan Wadsten, Product Manager for the Ovation Media Server and Sequencer at Merging Technologies.

"We are thrilled to be able to demonstrate Ovation on the Dataton booth at InfoComm MEA, helping to show how easy it is to manipulate advanced audio and control audio information working on the WATCHOUT time line."

Fredrik Svahnberg, Marketing Director at Dataton adds: "At this year’s InfoComm MEA our booth will be entirely focused on showing the most informative images and high-quality content. We’re delighted to once again collaborate with Merging Technologies to jointly show the audiovisual community what can be achieved and opportunities for new ways of communicating using technology in Dubai."
