Telos Alliance will demonstrate new capabilities across its Linear Acoustic Next Generation Audio lineup at the 2025 NAB Show.
New features include support for NMOS IS-04 for network registration and discovery and IS-05 for connection management across all Linear Acoustic NGA products, including the LA-5291 Professional Audio Encoder, LA-5300 Broadcast Audio Processor and UPMAX ISC Immersive Soundfield Controller.
The LA-5300 now supports Dolby Digital Plus with Atmos encoding for workflows where Dolby AC-4 is not used, 5.1.4 to 5.1- and 2.0-channel downmixing, mono and stereo handling of SAP audio, and an updated Dolby AC-4 encoder library to support M&E + D workflows.
Both the LA-5300 and UPMAX ISC now support upmixing to 5.1.2 and 7.1.4, along with a longer latency version of the ISC’s upmixing algorithm for transmission applications.
“Sound is an essential and integral part of the overall experience for television viewers,” said Larry Schindel, Linear Acoustic product manager. “All of the capabilities afforded by Next Generation Audio, ranging from personalization options to a full Dolby Atmos immersive experience, are available to broadcasters in the portfolio of Linear Acoustic NGA products.”
Telos Alliance will showcase these Linear Acoustic products and features at booth N721 in the North Hall. The updated Dolby AC-4 library in the LA-5300 will be available later in 2025. Other features will be available in Q2 2025 through Linear Acoustic channel partners.
