Calrec Integrates ImPulseV With NEP Platform

Calrec has integrated its ImPulseV virtualised DSP software with NEP Platform, expanding the audio processing capabilities available through NEP’s software ecosystem and furthering Calrec’s virtualisation strategy.

NEP Platform provides an orchestration layer for bringing production software applications together in a unified, software-defined environment. The platform is designed to help broadcasters, rightsholders, leagues and live content producers deploy, orchestrate and scale production resources as requirements change.

The integration reflects the growing adoption of hybrid production models, in which media companies combine on-premise infrastructure with remote and virtual resources across multiple processing environments. Calrec said ImPulseV is designed to provide flexible processing resources that can scale to meet changing production demands.

Henry Goodman, Calrec's Director of Product Management, said: "Pairing the power of NEP’s software orchestration platform with Calrec’s ImPulseV allows NEP to offer customers virtualised audio production environments and services that best fit the needs of each production. The ability to add temporary virtualised processing resources means broadcasters can scale to support their biggest events without significant up-front hardware investment.

"It also simplifies technical complexity. Wherever the processing is located and however a workflow is designed, it should feel seamless to the operator. Working closely with NEP, Calrec’s ongoing ImPulseV development simplifies deployment and gives customers the freedom to build more flexible, scalable production workflows."

The addition of ImPulseV gives NEP Platform users access to virtualised Calrec audio processing alongside the other applications available within the platform's ecosystem.

"Every production is different, and our customers want the flexibility to choose the software that's the right fit for each production,” said Dan Murphy, VP of NEP Platform.

“NEP Platform brings those trusted applications together, making it easier to deploy, connect and manage them through a unified operational framework. Adding Calrec’s ImPulseV to the NEP Platform ecosystem further expands those choices, giving customers access to scalable, virtualised audio processing while streamlining how modern production workflows are deployed and managed. It's another example of how we're growing an open ecosystem that gives customers the flexibility to build the workflows that best meet their operational needs."
