Germany - Through cooperation between Optocore and Neumann, it is now possible to transport, distribute and route Neumann digital microphone audio signals and control data using one digital network - one network connection for all signals with no limitation in distances.

Neumann's recent developments include the Solution D Series digital microphones with AES42 interfaces. A most advantageous A/D conversion, especially developed synchronization technology and the capability of controlling standard microphone parameters and various integrated signal-processing functions remotely ensure that Solution-D meets the most demanding professional audio production requirements, says the company.

Audio signals are available at any point of the network as AES/EBU and MADI as well as conventional analogue format. Optocore has now developed a RJ45 to Sub-D adapter cable, allowing every Optocore device equipped with a RS485 interface to communicate with Neumann microphones.

Neumann offers an AES42 to RS485 and AES/EBU converter with two microphone channels. An eight-channel version will soon be introduced. The converter (DMI-2) is remotely controlled via RS485 using a PC/MAC. All signals can now be transmitted via Optocore fibre optic networks to and from Neumann Solution D Series Microphones using Neumann DMI-2 interfaces. This also counts for any other microphone as long as it is AES42 compatible.

The complete audio production signal chain is entirely digital using the Optocore network.
