Sound Images opt for APT’s WorldNet Tokyo
US-based audio specialist Sound Images recently invested in a WorldNet Tokyo ISDN codec from Belfast-based manufacturer APT.
Sound Images is a company with an enviable client list pulled from across the music, film, multi media, advertising and corporate spectrum. Their facility boasts two digital audio production suites, one 48-track analogue/24 track digital LEDE certified music studio and a MIDI Synthesizer Room.
A large percentage of Sound Images’ business involves producing original music for advertising. Studio rental is also important, as is voiceover work, which also featured heavily on the company’s schedule.
The WorldNet Tokyo, which was launched in 2003, is a multi-algorithm codec specifically designed for broadcast, post-production and voiceover applications.
For many years these markets have required an ISDN codec that offers either Standard 16 bit apt-X, Enhanced 16, 20 and 24 bit apt-X, ISO MPGEG Layer II, Layer III, G.722 and AAC algorithms. However, this proliferation of algorithm formats caused endless problems for studios trying to connect with each other. The launch of the WorldNet Tokyo changed all that by guaranteeing connectivity – not only with traditional APT codecs such as the WorldNet DSM100/Pro-Link, DRT128 and BCFs, but also with ISDN codecs from Telos, CCS, AETA, AEQ and Dialog 4.
Since Sound Images installed its WorldNet Tokyo, it has successfully connected to a host of other studios with a wide variety of codecs, held sessions with studios that have every type of codec, without using a bridge.
