I’m Designing my New "BLANK” with all IP Connectivity . . . that makes it easy, right?

Oh my Friend, the more you learn the less certain you become . . .

OK – I’ll make it easy – I’m going to use all network gear – Really? Which one of the several companies they’ve absorbed this year are you planning to utilize . . . do they still manufacture/market that product line or do you plan on hoping for “inventory clearance” pricing so you can pre-buy spares, after all tubes made a comeback . . . right? Besides nobody ever got fired for buying IBM (seen ANY IBM branded stuff around lately?). OK so I’m gonna be safe – EVERYTHING will be fully Standards Compliant. Interesting Concept—which one you thinking about using? Dante, yep that’s a walled off inferno. AES isn’t done—or maybe more like barely started; oh and SMPTE—48 flavors and 19 variations and growing every second.

AES and SBE bravely go where sanity ends and lore and legend rule. Are you tough enough to take the ride?
