PRODUCT BACKGROUND
In 2009 we were contracted by Dolby to supply custom speakers to support their Atmos development. From our involvement at this early stage we have watched with tremendous interest the success of Atmos across cinema and its rapid adoption in home audio, gaming, mobile, streamed media, music and beyond.
In 2011 Sony Entertainment commissioned the first order of our HDMI-2A. This 8-channel HDMI to AES/EBU
de-embedder has become an essential device for hundreds of the worlds leading gaming, music, TV and film post-production studios enabling consistent audio levels across multiple equipment and audio standards.
Now a decade later the audio industry is fast evolving beyond 8-channel audio. Audio professionals have been reaching out to us requesting a 16-channel solution to support their Atmos post-production workflow.
After extensive design, development, testing and direct consultation with experts across the globe we are excited to finally release the H2-4D.
I would like to personally thank the many dozens of engineers, external consultants and the team at Dolby for assisting us to make this product an elegant solution to support the audio industry’s transition to object-based audio production.
