AES Standards News Blog

The recent publication of the new multi-part AES3-2009 has meant that some references in other AES documents became hard to find in the new AES3. In order that these documents can continue to provide useful guidance, a number of them have been reprinted with relevant editorial addenda to indicate references to AES3-2009 in addition to their original normative references.  The documents concerned are:

AES-2id-2006    Guidelines for the use of the AES3 interface
AES10-2008    Serial Multichannel Audio Digital Interface (MADI)
AES11-2009    Synchronization of digital audio equipment in studio operations
AES47-2006    Transmission of digital audio over asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) networks
AES52-2006    Insertion of unique identifiers into the AES3 transport stream
AES55-2007    Carriage of MPEG Surround in an AES3 bitstream
AES42-2006    Digital interface for microphones
 

Charges for AES standards were reviewed at the end of last year and, with the support of the AES Board of Governors, it has been decided to make AES standards available to AES members free of charge as a benefit of membership. This will provide individual standards in their full printable form as downloadable PDF files. Select the documents you need in the Standards Store (http://www.aes.org/publications/standards/) and proceed to checkout as normal; make sure you provide the required proof of membership and the invoice will show no charge!  Non-members will continue to be able to access informational previews of standards for free and also purchase full printable copies.
