Flexible updates

The Jünger flexAI platform’s version 2023-12r4 (V2023-12r4) software update brings an overhaul of AoIP integration for AIXpressor and flexAIserver. V2023-12r4 delivers full support for SMPTE ST 2110-30 and -31 Level A, B and C as well as Livewire+ livestreams. Additionally, support for NMOS IS-04 and IS-05 is said to make both the AIXpressor and flexAIserver more useful in ST 2110-based workflows, including integration with orchestration systems.

Production and processing updates include an improved voice-over automixer and Jünger Audio’s latest upmixer which includes centre channel replacement technology. V2023-12r4 also features two new channel strips including a matrix mixer with up to 16 input and output channels and a multichannel delay with 16 individual channels and up to 20 seconds of total audio delay.

In addition, the upgrade includes the addition of Jünger Audio’s MPX and Pre-Emphasis Limiter as the new FM Conditioner on the flexAI platform. This feature provides transparent loudness management in the composite domain in regions adhering to the ITU-R BS.412 MPX power regulations.

Support for the vendor-agnostic Serial ADM (S-ADM) professional metadata formats puts flexAI at the centre of next-generation immersive audio workflows with a complete set of authoring and rendering tools for the exchange of metadata between production and emission stages, including the Dolby S-ADM emission profile. Additionally, the server now offers the complete MPEG-H 3D audio toolset from Fraunhofer IIS, including an immersive monitor controller.

In terms of security, there is an option to use an HTTPS web interface with an integrated security certificate, password-protected login and LDAP access control for users and groups. Further V2023-12r4 updates include a CPU meter for real-time monitoring, an integrated web-based console terminal and native browser-based audio monitor.
