PRESS RELEASE
Klark Teknik Announces Major AES50 Developments at PLASA 2009
September 17, 2009
Advertisement The UK manufacturer, which owns the intellectual property of the SuperMAC and HyperMAC core designs, has signed agreements with specialist third party developer companies AuviTran and ZP Engineering to make SuperMAC and HyperMAC technology available to the audio industry on a royalty-free basis. This will be in the form of Software Development Kits (SDKs) for use with Xilinx Spartan-3E and -3S series field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs). The SuperMAC SDK has already been released to the development partners and the HyperMAC SDK is expected to be released in Q4 2009. Audio manufacturers looking to adopt SuperMAC and HyperMAC should contact Auvitran and ZP Engineering, who can offer modules for easy integration as well as custom design solutions. In addition to signing a contract with the chosen developer, the manufacturer will need to sign a one-off sub-licence agreement with Klark Teknik parent company Telex Communications (UK) to incorporate SuperMAC and/or HyperMAC in their products, for a one-off fee of £500 towards administration costs. No further fees are payable to Klark Teknik including royalties on either a per connection or per channel basis. Klark Teknik and Midas have also joined together with AuviTran, ZP Engineering and Lynx Studio Technology to form the AES50 Trade Association, promoting the adoption of the AES50-2005 standard by professional audio manufacturers and end users, as well as in other industries. The AES50 Trade Association is committed to an open standards approach to audio technology and is keen to promote a co-operative approach between manufacturers, as well as working closely with the AES on the future development of audio networking. Klark Teknik has set up the AES50 Trade Association and web site (www.aes50ta.org and will hand over operation to a committee formed by the founder members in the first half of 2010. Elections for the committee will take place on an annual basis and will be open to all members. For more information, visit their web site at http://www.klarkteknik.com/.
