IP Expands Audio Monitoring Capabilities

TVtechnology.com reports that like most everything else in our industry, the world of broadcast audio monitoring has undergone a rapid rate of change, particularly in the area of audio over IP. A year ago, it was still open to debate whether AES67 would become the de facto standard; that issue seems to be settled now.
