New solutions


easily customize and configure a full- room UC solution that’s user friendly and delivers the best audio results in any room. With added safety require- ments in today’s spaces, the ADECIA ceiling microphone solution can allow for social distancing and reduced con- tact without hindering the conference experience.” With over 130 years of history dedi- cated to mastering the best possible sound quality, whether it be world- class instrument sound output, con- cert hall acoustics or high-tech DSP algorithms, Yamaha has encompassed this collective knowledge, technology and research to develop solutions that solve today’s communication challeng- es.


ADECIA enables organisations to overcome challenges with implemen- tation, configuration, and room acous-


tics by providing all the equipment required for a successful installation with the highest audio quality. Ev- ery component of the system, from the microphones to speakers as well as the required networking and com- munication equipment, automatically integrates thus reducing time, costs, and installation complexities. The complete solution immediately detects all components of the system and configures them to be optimised for the room environment, accounting for the location of speakers and mi- crophones, reverberation characteris- tics of the room, and echo behaviour. Setting up a room is done through the system’s configurator in four effortless steps. With USB, Bluetooth, Dante, and analogue connections, this flex- ible system can fit a wide variety of room types.


Introducing latakoo DAILIES


latakoo, a leading developer of soft- ware solutions for the broadcast pro- duction industry, has announced the release of its new latakoo DAILIES. Aimed at production companies, DAI- LIES is a time and cost savings work- flow tool that enables video profession- als to rapidly ingest video files from the shoot location to the latakoo cloud for post editing. latakoo DAILIES has been optimized for teams using Avid Media Composer, creating a more rap- id transfer of video files into Avid edit bins and saving precious post-produc- tion time for deadline work. latakoo DAILIES builds on the compa- ny’s cloud-based platform by now en- abling video crews to send lightweight proxy files to editors within minutes of a shoot. Proxy files are created and rapidly uploaded to secure latakoo cloud accounts using the patented latakoo compression and upload pro- cess for storage and sharing. Associat- ed metadata for files – including video card number, shoot date, camera ID, project number or a user customised field – can be collected for each group of transferred videos. Uploaded files are automatically downloaded by lata- koo HUB and placed inside a shared drive. Editors can then simply drag the group of files into the appropriate bin in Avid Media Composer. The files,

along with associated metadata, auto- matically populate the Avid bin with accurate information.


DAILIES has been created to support video ingest with or without the use of an asset manager. Employing latakoo’s HUB product, DAILIES complies with customers’ corporate firewalls and se- curity standards, and can seamlessly integrate with asset managers, includ- ing those offered by Avid, Dalet, Grass Valley and Bitcentral systems. “Production companies can save sever- al days’ time by using latakoo DAILIES’ automated video workflow because it removes many onerous tasks, like driving or shipping a hard drive filled with the day’s video back to the post house for manual inges t ,” said Paul Adrian, CEO


of

it that same day through the internet to the post house where latakoo atom- izes the video for use in Avid Media Composer. latakoo also creates Avid’s AAF files to deliver the accompanying metadata within minutes or seconds of the original transfer to our cloud.” The latakoo HUB server sits inside the user’s firewall and automates the download and transcode of video from the cloud. Files are checked into the user’s asset manager or playout sys- tem with accompanying metadata. HUB also uploads files from the as- set manager to the cloud, where files can be made available to remote team members or transcribed. HUB sup- ports 608/708 closed captioning.


The ADECIA solution combines Ya- maha’s new dynamic beamforming ceiling array microphone (RM-CG), remote conference processor (RM- CR), a Yamaha Dante-optimized net- work switch, and VXL Series line-array Dante PoE powered speakers. Togeth- er, the system supports multi-beam tracking technology, Human Voice Activity


Detection, Noise Reduction algorithms, speaker tracking, adaptive acoustic echo cancellation, and much more. These automatic, smart audio technologies empower crystal clear, stress-free remote communications. Utilising an open control interface, the new Yamaha RM-CG ceiling array microphone and RM-CR remote con- ference processor can also be used with other Yamaha or third-party com- ponents for even more flexibility in the system’s design.
