To inform the AES and other organizations on issues pertinent to our committee's focus area, with an emphasis on local and wide-area networks. The emphasis accompanies a major increase in network scale, bandwidth and quality of service, making it possible to consider brand new classes of audiovisual applications, as well as unconventional and high-performance implementations of existing ones.


Areas of Concentration

  • Audio systems connected via large-scale high-speed networks
  • Networked and distributed performance
  • Audio Video Bridging
  • Audio networking interoperability
  • Real-time networking

Recent/Planned Activities

  • AES 132 workshop - Use Cases for High Performance Audio-over-IP in Broadcast Facilities
  • AES 132 workshop - Synchronization in a Multichannel Digital Age
  • 44th AES conference on Networked Audio Systems
