Wheatstream Duo

• All-Inclusive Linux and AoIP Appliance: No Windows® drivers, updates or PC needed.
• Easy to Navigate: HTML 5 web browser interface
• 8 Output Streams: Accepts two input streams of analog, AES3, AES67 or native AoIP such as WheatNet IP, each capable of four output streams for a total of 8 output streams.
• Audio Processing Designed Specifically for Streaming: Full suite of audio processing tools developed specifically for streaming. Optimize the performance of encoded audio content with the right amount and type of processing for maintaining uniform levels, spectral balance and absolute peak control.
• Optimized Quality/Loudness For the Bitstream: Final limiting occurs separately in two bands, above and below 180Hz, to provide the ideal balance between perceived quality and loudness for a given finite bitstream. For low bitrate streams especially, separately managing low frequencies means being able to selectively remove low frequencies in the stereo difference channel (L-R). This leaves more bits available for encoding those frequencies that are more perceptible.
• Multiple Encoding Options: Provides selectable AAC, MP3 or Opus encoders targeting high to low bit rates for reaching a broad range of end user devices and players.
• Metadata Agnostic: Lua transformation filters adapt metadata input from any automation system into any required output format for streaming of song title, artist and artwork data.
• Compatible With Standard Protocols, CDNs and Streaming Platforms: Supports Triton, HLS, Icecast, RTMP, and RTP streaming protocols.
• BS.1770 Compliant Loudness Control: Manages loudness between -24 and -10 LUFS.
• Add to Any Studio: Add to any analog, digital or AoIP studio, including WheatNet IP and AES67-compatible systems.
