MediaMatrix® NION® Boasts Substantial Hardware & Software Upgrades
(Press Release | Posted 2008-06-13)
MediaMatrix by Peavey has
released version 1.4.2 of its NWare™ software, as well as memory upgrades and new I/O hardware,
for the NION® programmable digital audio processing node.
NION NWare version 1.4.2 is fully compatible with the Windows® Vista® operating system and
adds support for network time protocols that allow NION to sync with network time servers or an
Internet-based atomic clock. In addition, NION nX, n6 and n3 nodes now ship with upgrades in
flash memory up to 2 GB to enable additional storage of audio, project files and background music
loops, plus enhanced efficiency for messaging, audio playback, recording and multi-tasking within
the NION system.
MediaMatrix has also released the new NIO 4x4 card, which enables greater flexibility than ever for
all NION processing nodes. Featuring a four-input to four-output architecture—with mic- and linelevel
jacks on the inputs and line-level jacks on the outputs—the NIO 4x4 card enables system
installers to maximize the NION’s robust processing power to create streamlined systems based on
a single NION node.
NION is built on an embedded Linux operating system architecture designed for stable, efficient
and robust performance. Low-latency audio across all I/O ports, broad scalability and DSPenhanced
versatility make NION ideal for high-performance audio projects where a wide range of
audio distribution and processing is required. NWare is a Windows-based interface that works with
multiple NION nodes across an Ethernet network, as well as third-party control and SNMP
management tools.
Contractors are encouraged to contact their MediaMatrix representative for more information.
Features and specifications are subject to change without notice. NION is designed and
manufactured in the U.S.A.
