PERCEPTUAL SOUNDMAXTM Q24SER SERVERWARE
48 x 24-Band Audio Processors, Encoders, and Streamers in a Single 1U Server/PC
Perceptual SoundMaxTM is a unique high-density-high-resolution audio processing –
and audio encoding/streaming solution – that packs 48+ audio processors in a single
1U server form-factor. Start with a few streams and then add additional streams on
demand or start with 48+ streams out of the gate! The full power of
Perceptual SoundMaxTM high-resolution24-band audio processing is independently
applied to each stream allowing you to create a signature vibrant sound for each
of your broadcast channels or Internet streams. This unique high-resolution completely
linear phase processing algorithm combines latest in signal processing technology with
our proprietary and unique know-how in psychoacoustics to create an unmatched audio
processing engine. What is more is that a high quality encoder (HE-AAC and MP3) and
streamer (HTTP/TCP/UDP) is integrated right into each of the 48+ streams to provide an
incredibly compact high-performance streaming solution. Use it for on-air processing or
streaming or both, the power is yours!
MULTI-SERVER SOUNDMAX MANAGERTM
Perceptual SoundMax™ Q24Ser is supplied along with a high functionality SoundMax ManagerTM which allows for elaborate Configuration, Control, Monitoring and Tuning of multiple servers connected to a network. The presence of one or more Perceptual SoundMaxTM Servers on the network is automatically sensed by the SoundMax ManagerTM running on any computer connected to that network. By using this manager, user has complete flexibility to configure and monitor the servers and streams on each server. SoundMaxTM Manager goes a step beyond providing full tuning controls for each processing channel. Clicking on the tuning button brings about a multiband tuning screen, allowing control over the internal processing blocks such as 24-band Dynamic Range Compression, WideBand Noise Reduction, Intelligent Loudness Control, Stereo Processing, Multiband Equalizer and audio sweetening tools such as Dynamic Listener Fatigue Reduction, Incoherent Component Suppression, Sibilant Fricative Smoothing. The range of controls include full control over numerous other parameters such as compression /limiting /expansion/noise thresholds and attack/release times for each of the 24-bands. Processing profiles can be saved and instantaneously propagated across all streams and multiple servers.
AAC HLS & HTTP DISTRIBUTION SETTINGS WITH MULTIPLE BITRATE ENCODING OPTIONS
SoundMax™ Serverware supports AAC codec with profiles LC & HE ( HEv1 & HEv2 ). Each channel can individually be configured for two different bitrates of AAC encoding format having either an LC profile or HE profile. As per AAC industry standards, LC profile is applied for bitrates 128, 192 & 256, HEv1 profile is applied for bitrates 64 & 96 and HEv2 profile is applied for bitrate 32.
