The Telos Alliance’s Linear Acoustic badge brought new Aero DTV processors for loudness management to Las Vegas.

According to a release, “Aero.20, Aero.200, and Aero.2400 offer the same trusted loudness control, upmixing, Nielsen and Verance Aspect audience measurement watermarking, Dolby coding, and flexible local audio insertion for EAS and text-to-speech as their predecessors, but introduce several new and important features. These include dual independent 3G SDI I/O paths to support 1080p signals, user-selectable metering and logging options for EBU R 128 or ATSC A/85, and an updated Windows 10 IoT operating system to provide additional security features.”

Also from Linear Acoustic, the LA-5300 Broadcast Audio Processor is getting a very useful new feature — optional Dolby Digital Plus with Atmos encoding (also known as Dolby Digital Plus with JOC/Joint Object Encoding).

Linear Acoustic Product Manager Larry Schindel said, “The ability to provide the option of Dolby Digital Plus with Atmos greatly expands the usefulness of the LA-5300 and positions it as a universal television audio processor and encoder. Whether you’re an over-the-air broadcaster using Dolby AC-4 to provide immersive audio or distributing immersive content via over-the-top or streaming platforms using Dolby Digital Plus with Atmos, the LA-5300 delivers.”
