Yamaha Introduces New SDI Interface at Inter BEE 2009

The MY8-SDI-ED is being launched at Inter BEE 2009, the annual international broadcast equipment exhibition held at Japan's Makuhari Messe from 18th - 20th November. Examples will be available for inspection and demonstration on Stand 4109, where Yamaha Corporation of Japan is exhibiting a wide range of the company's professional audio products.

Compatible with all of Yamaha's digital mixing consoles and DME series digital mixing engines and offering from eight to 64 I/O channels (depending on the console and number of cards used), the MY8-SDI-ED provides input and output of HD-SDI embedded audio signals.

Featuring one HD/SD-SDI input, two HD/SD-SDI outputs (same signal), and one thru-output (reclocked), each card is able to de-embed up to two of the four audio groups (four channels per group; total eight channels), multiplexed in an HD-SDI signal, and to embed two audio groups into an HD/SD-SDI signal for output.

With SDI now being the standard In the broadcast market, but many broadcasters still using both the HD and SD systems, the MY8-SDI-ED interface card now it makes extremely easy to include Yamaha digital audio mixers and digital mixing engines into any broadcasting system.

By enabling studios to bring the renowned audio quality, reliability and flexibility of Yamaha's digital mixing solutions easily and seamlessly into broadcast systems, the MY8-SDI-ED and Yamaha's other MY-series interface cards obviously offer many advantages. In addition, they bring significant economic benefits, as Yamaha digital mixing consoles are more competitively priced than audio consoles marketed as ‘specialist' broadcast models.

"Many broadcast companies are now embedding audio within the SDI digital video transmission as a convenient method of managing signal flow. With HD gaining acceptance globally, an HD/SD-SDI card was an inevitable addition to our range of I/O options." says Nick Cook, European marketing director for Yamaha Commercial Audio.

The MY8-SDI-ED will be available worldwide from Spring 2010.
