d&b audiotechnik

From the sublime to the ridiculous, the newest item on the d&b audiotechnik stand was a banana, or rather a bunch of them; a typical d&b comedic allusion to line arrays in general, and their Q-Series launched last year in particular. "We have a tendency on these occasions to be completely bananas," said d&b's Simon Johnstone, "so it seemed appropriate as a theme for our stand."

Of perhaps greater import was the new Remote Network software for its D12 amplifier - the new software enables load monitoring and full system check features. Also for the D12, the latest ROPE C remote control software with R10 service software, which allows firmware updates for amplifiers over the d&b remote network, and has scene recallable type features for reading, saving and restoring amplifier configurations and for resetting such things as EQ and delay to default values.

To paraphrase the PR, no doubt this year's offerings will bear fruit.
