Telos Alliance, the Cleveland-based broadcast audio company, has confirmed that its new StudioCore and StudioEdge products are now shipping.
Availability of the AoIP studio consoles within its Axia line were formally introduced at the IBC 2024 show in Amsterdam, held in September.
StudioCore serves as a new console engine for Axia iQ, Radius, RAQ, and DESQ surfaces and is the successor to the long-running QOR.32 engine. It maintains the 24-channel mixing engine from QOR.32 and an internal power supply and 5-port Ethernet switch. However, it also adds an eight-channel monitor matrix system and offers a Livewire+ AES67 stream capacity of 32 inputs and 32 outputs, removing the stream count limitation of the QOR.32.
The optional Core Soft remote control solution provides HTML5 browser-based control of StudioCore, allowing it to function as a standalone mixer (with or without a hardware control surface), control a connected iQ surface, and serve as an in-browser monitor for the control room monitor output.
StudioEdge is a high-density I/O device designed to complement the Axia xNode2 family of products. It can be used as an all-in-one I/O solution in control rooms of any size, or as an ingest station or routing and monitoring solution in TOCs and machine rooms.
StudioCore and StudioEdge are built on a common 2RU fanless hardware platform that includes an integrated 5-port Ethernet switch with PoE and a 5” color IPS LCD touchscreen display for complete local control of routing, I/O, and audio levels.
I/O includes four selectable mic/line inputs, eight dedicated line inputs and outputs, and three digital inputs and outputs that are user-configurable as AES/EBU, S/PDIF, and USB Audio (which eliminates the need for an IP driver for stereo applications), two headphone outputs with independent DACs and built-in amplifiers, a built-in audio file player via USB data port, and four GPI/O ports. A second internal power supply is optionally available.
