The StormAudio ISP Evo is a compact, modular processor that is 100% digital. It suits systems where your amplifiers take AES/EBU or AES67 audio over IP rather than analog. It decodes up to 32 discrete channels in Dolby Atmos, DTS:X Pro, Auro 3D, IMAX Enhanced, MPEG-H and Sony 360 Reality Audio. Choose 20 or 32 channels, AES/EBU or AoIP outputs, and add 16 AES inputs on the AES/EBU versions. Dirac Live room correction licences are included.
