The iOS app integrates with the Live Timecode Notes online tool
EditingTools.io BY KEVIN EMMOTT
Developed in collaboration with fi lm industry professionals,
EditingTools.io has redesigned the iOS note-taking process for its Live Timecode Notes online tool.
Live Notes is designed to speed up note-taking during live events or studio recording, with customisable tags, personalised buttons and universal colours to help log live shows for later editing. The Live Notes iOS functionality is particularly useful for reality TV shows, but can be used on any event requiring timecode- related notes.

Notes can be exported later
as PDF or CSV fi les to create spreadsheets, or exported as timeline markers for Adobe Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, Avid Media Composer, and other post-production applications. The app also enables team sessions, allowing multiple people to comment on the same event and collect all notes in one document. Additionally, it offers offl ine use and external clocks. Users can create notes by typing, pressing a predefi ned button, or using the text-to- speech feature. Timecode can be set to individual time zones when commenting on a stream from another region or synced with an external clock, such as a Tentacle Sync device. 8.B30e
GETTING TO THE BOTTOM OF THINGS Neumann
BY KEVIN EMMOTT
Designed for medium to large studio environments, Neumann’s KH series is being expanded with fi ve DSP-powered subwoofers. At the heart of each new model is Neumann’s advanced DSP engine to enable system alignment with the MA 1 automatic monitor alignment system.
The KH 805 II builds on the success of the KH 750 DSP, offering double the output. It is suitable for stereo setups with
KH 150 or KH 310 monitors. Sharing the same acoustic design, the KH 810 II adds multichannel bass management up to 7.1.4 and the possibility to connect and bass manage up to 11 studio monitors. Meanwhile, KH 870 II is tailored for large rooms and high-demand applications and redefi nes Neumann’s fl agship subwoofer to offer twice the output of the KH 810 II.
For AoIP workfl ows, the KH 810 II AES67 and KH 870 II AES67 each have 12 AES67 input channels and integrate
into broadcast and networked audio environments. Offering full system integration and future- proof fl exibility, they support ST
2110, ST 2022-7 redundancy, Ravenna, NMOS and Dante- generated AES67 streams. 8.D50
