Köln, Germany-based RTW Audio has introduced a new AoIP-focused monitor controller with onboard metering features.
The company rolled out the new product at IBC 2022, and says it is a tool ready to integrate seamlessly with Audinate Dante audio-over-IP networks.
Introducing the TouchControl 5, a monitor controller and audio meter with an intuitive user interface and a small footprint that preserves valuable desktop real estate, featuring a 5” touchscreen, as well as a rotary knob that also functions as a push button for easy access to dim or mute functions. The screen layout can effortlessly be customized by the user via a browser-based application, and TouchControl 5 is able to control up to 32 AoIP audio channels, making it compatible with audio formats from mono to immersive within a Dante audio network.
“We are very happy to once again take on monitor control with an updated and relevant product designed specifically to manage audio channels on an IP Audio network,” RTW CEO Andreas Tweitmann said. “No doubt, there is a huge demand for monitor control solutions that are able to naturally and easily integrate with Dante and AES67. On top of that, with the touchscreen it was an obvious bonus to also offer a selection of our world-class metering solutions as options that you can add either from the start, or as your needs grow along the way.”
