Prism Sound Shows New Audio Interfaces at NAB 04

After an exceptionally successful 12 month trading period, which culminated in a move to larger offices in the USA, internationally acclaimed manufacturer Prism Sound will be using the NAB 2014 platform to introduce post production and broadcaster engineers to its growing family of audio interfaces.

Alongside Orpheus, Lyra and Titan, the company will also be showing Atlas the third new interface product that Prism Sound has launched in the last year.

"Launching three new products in such a short timeframe meant that our existing premises could no longer cope to put it simply we needed more space, says Janice Norton, Prism Sounds VP US Operations. "We have moved to a larger, ground floor suite close to our former premises in Rockaway, New Jersey, and now have plenty of room to stock the extensive range of products that Prism Sound offers to both the recording and broadcast markets."

Designed with Prism Sounds latest and award-winning CleverClox clocking technology and incorporating eight of the companys popular mic pres as standard, the new Atlas interface is aimed squarely at multitrack recording applications. It offers recording professionals ultimate quality analogue and digital I/O for Mac or Windows PC at sample rates up to 192kHz via a simple USB interface. In addition to the USB host interface, Atlas also features Prism Sounds new MDIO interface expansion slot, which was first incorporated into Titan and announced at AES New York in October 2013. Using this miniature expansion slot users can, for example, directly connect to Pro Tools|HDX systems. A range of other MDIO interfaces is planned for later introduction. Atlas will also run with Apple and Windows native applications over USB.

Atlas, Titan and Lyra are all capable of aggregated operation in both MAC and Windows PC environments. This makes it possible to link up a number of different units for multichannel applications for example 24 track, 32 track or even bigger set-ups while retaining a USB connection for each unit. In the Windows environment, Prism Sound provides a new driver that aggregates the units and presents a single multitrack interface to DAW applications for I/O routing.

At NAB 2014, Prism Sound is also showing its full range of Test & Measurement solutions, including the versatile dScope Series III Audio Analyzer. This award-winning unit features a freely-available test suite that can be used to evaluate the performance and compliance of any loudness meter on the market. As US broadcasters are now legally obliged to comply with the ATSC A/85 standards, Prism Sounds test suite enables them to properly evaluate all loudness meters and ensure that their chosen product can deliver both ATSC and ITU BS.1770 compliance.
