VenuePack 2.0 and VenuePack Pro 2.0 are impressive collections of the most sought-after effects processing and analysis plug-ins available for the Venue platform. VenuePack 2.0 is included with every Venue system and features the Troodon Technologies TrooTrace audio analysis bundle, while VenuePack Pro 2.0 offers five additional high-quality plug-ins with the purchase of a D-Show Mix Engine DSP card.
D-Show 2.0 software - an upgrade to the Venue system software-delivers extended snapshot automation capabilities, improved workflows, and expanded signal routing and control possibilities.
The new DSI and DSO card options for the Venue live sound environment extend the system's flexibility by offering additional digital input and output options for the Stage Rack. Engineers can use these cards to integrate a wider range of digital peripherals and components than previously possible.
A single DSI card provides eight channels of digital input for the Venue Stage Rack, either through four AES/EBU pairs on individual XLRs or via a single ADAT optical interface. A single DSO card offers eight channels of AES/EBU outputs across four discrete XLRs as well as eight channels via the ADAT optical interface. The DSO keeps both AES/EBU and ADAT connections active at all times, creating a digital split with the AES signals mirrored to the ADAT connection.
VenuePack 2.0 is an updated version of the software bundle included free with every Venue live sound environment. VenuePack 2.0 offers a collection of the most coveted Digidesign and Digidesign Development Partner TDM effects processing and analysis plug-ins. VenuePack Pro 2.0 provides five free additional plug-ins with the purchase of a D-Show Mix Engine DSP card.
The D-Show 2.0 software upgrade adds several key features significantly increasing the efficiency, depth of control and flexibility of the Venue live sound environment. With extended snapshot automation capabilities, improved workflows developed in response to user requests and expanded signal routing and control possibilities, D-Show 2.0 delivers new functionality while maintaining the unmatched ease of use of the system.
