Vizrt has debuted its first dedicated NDI audio connection solution.
Enabling users to connect, configure and convert analogue audio sources to NDI, Viz Connect Audio provides the facility to manage any NDI sources on a network, both visually and aurally, also providing visibility of all sources, said the company.

The solution is easily integrated and enables control and monitoring of a production’s audio sources across a broad range of use cases, including broadcast studios and live production.
As one of the first dedicated NDI IP audio solutions, Viz Connect Audio aims to provide connectivity across a variety of formats, said the company.
Commenting, Steve Taylor, chief product and technology officer at Vizrt, said, “Audio is just as important as video in any live production. By ensuring seamless and flexible audio connectivity using the same NDI network, with streaming infrastructure also widely used for video, Viz Connect Audio guarantees professional-quality, easy to configure live productions.”
Vizrt’s senior product manager Christopher McLendon added, “While TriCasters have long provided the ability to connect audio sources directly into the live production switcher, with Viz Connect Audio, the focus is firmly on enabling users to bring in analogue audio sources, convert them to NDI, and connect them straight to the NDI network – strengthening the entire workflow and flexibility of the ecosystem.”
