Riedel unveils iPad app

Riedel’s Artist Input Monitor iOS app is now available from Apple App Store. It is the first in a series of iOS utility apps from the manufacturer.

The Artist Level Meters application can monitor and control up to eight freely assignable audio inputs of an Artist Digital Matrix Intercom system. The app gives the intercom administrator a new way to manage the four-wire input levels of a system without having to be in front of a computer running the Director configuration software. The Level Meters can be configured wirelessly directly on an iPad.

A further software release from the manufacturer comes in the form of version 1.14 of its MediorWorks configuration, control, and monitoring program. This latest MediorWorks release will give users access to all software configuration and control tools for MediorNet and RockNet systems within a single application and window. MediorWorks 1.14 also enables extended SNMP monitoring and supports new capabilities such as audio de-embedding for Grass Valley camera signals.

Staying with the RockNet theme, a final announcement sees new RockNet expansion solutions for Solid State Logic (SSL) consoles and Soundcraft Si Compact mixers. New firmware for the RockNet RN.334.MD Madi interface makes SSL mixing consoles an integrated part of the Riedel RockNet digital audio network, with complete remote control functionality over all gains. As a result, several mixing consoles can reportedly operate with the same mic pre-amps without affecting one other.

Riedel's new RN.344.SI card enables integration with any Soundcraft Si Compact console, supporting 32 inputs and 32 outputs to the RockNet system. According to the manufacturer, the interface enables remote control of any RockNet mic pre-amp and also offers the benefit of RockNet's independent gain feature.
