Axia Audio is pleased to announce that a new version of
their IP-Audio Driver for Windows® is now available. Version 2.4.7.3 is
an incremental upgrade that addresses several minor usability and
performance issues. Anyone using a previous version is encouraged to
obtain the update, which is available for free to registered users.
Axia’s IP-Audio Driver makes it possible to extract
premium quality digital audio from a standard PC — without sound cards!
A PC with the IP-Audio Driver becomes an Axia “audio node.” Its Ethernet
port connects directly to the Livewire network, and the Axia driver
handles all necessary audio conversions. The PC can then send stereo
audio to any network destination, and can record or audition any other
network source as well.
In addition to eliminating the expense of third-party
sound cards, IP-Audio Driver users also avoid the cost of the audio
inputs (router or console) normally required by hardwired routing
systems. For broadcasters with highly-computerized studios, cost savings
can be significant.
New features in Version 2.4.7.3 include:
-
An added audio recording path through the Windows
Mixer for easier recording of local audio streams.
-
Re-ordered stream identifiers for easier
configuration when using multiple-output audio playback or digital
delivery systems.
-
Enhanced interoperability with Windows Firewall.
The Axia IP-Audio Driver comes in two versions: a
one-input, one-output version for use with audio editing workstations,
and a 16-in/16-out version available directly from Axia Delivery System
partners. Users of the single-stream IP-Audio Driver may download a
software update from
www.AxiaAudio.com/downloads ; users with the multi-stream version
can obtain the update directly from their delivery system provider.
A growing number of delivery system providers support the
Livewire IP-Audio standard. Visit

Driver, contact Clark Novak at
