DT 770 HT HEADTRACKING HEADPHONES
BEYERDYNAMIC
Beyerdynamic recently made remote monitoring of 5.1 surround easier with the introduction of the Headzone PRO, 5.1 portable surround monitoring system. To provide additional sound isolation in noisy remote environments, the Headzone system will now be extended to include the closed DT 770 PRO HT headphones. With the latest version of Headzone's software control panel and DSP firmware, users will be able to select between the two headphone models. Updates for current Headzone users will soon be available for download from the beyerdynamic website. NAB booth: N9014. www.beyerdynamic-usa.com

STARFISH DISPLAY
DK-TECHNOLOGIES
No modern recording, broadcast or post-production studio is complete without DK-Technologies’ Jellyfish audio display, and NAB sees the launch of the new Starfish display for MSD600M audio meters. Levels are shown for each of the surround channels, and the perceived acoustic level is also indicated. The Starfish's colored contour reflects the correlation between neighboring audio channels, making unwanted effects easy to track down, and stereo and mono downmix signals are displayed to ensure compatibility. NAB booth: N1835.

RAD REMOTE ANGLE DISPLAY
RIEKER
The Remote Angle Display (RAD or RAS) was specially designed for speaker positioning. Most of our customers have a number of speakers that they need to level but typically only want one display box. We can supply the display as a single-line display (RAS) reading one sensor at a time or a dual-line display (RAD) to measure two sensors at the same time. An RAD or RAS system includes the display box, along with a number of matched sensors-typically one, two or four sensors. Both the sensor unit and the display box use standard-type audio XLR cord plug connectors for easy connection.
