AES-X192 initiation
[page updated 2010-12-01]
This project was proposed by Kevin Gross. It was approved under our rules by Subcommittee SC-02 and assigned to the working group SC-02-12 on Audio Applications of Networks.
| TITLE | AES-X192, High-performance streaming audio-over-IP interoperability |
| SCOPE | To specify protocols and interoperability guidelines for professional, low-latency streaming audio over high-performance IP networks. |
| OUTPUT INTENT | Standard |
| RATIONALE |
The most recent generation of networked audio technology uses a diversity of proprietary and standard protocols. Despite a common basis in IP, none of the systems deployed or under development are interoperable. The latest crop of networking technology has not yet reached a level of maturity precluding changes to improve interoperability.
A standardized basis for interoperability will help designers of equipment that inter-operates with other equipment, and will support extended multi-vendor systems with greater predictability.
|
| WHO BENEFITS? | Equipment designers and manufacturers, system designers, system installers, owners and operators of installations. |
| WHY AES? | Because the AES has no proprietary interest in any existing standards, the AES can provide an objective forum to combine existing industry efforts and form a professional consensus. |
