AES, New York - October 7, 2005 - CEntrance, a leader in professional
audio technology, today demonstrated a new Universal FireWire audio
driver for Windows XP. The Company showed the unique capability
of a single host application playing simultaneously through audio interfaces
from several manufacturers. This offers consumers the flexibility to combine
multiple interfaces in their computer studio system, something that wasn't
possible until now.
The CEntrance Universal Driver is ASIO compatible, features low-latency
audio performance and supports 44.1, 48, and 96kHz at either 16- or 24-bit
resolution. The driver is scheduled for release in Q1 2006 and will be
offered for sale directly from the CEntrance website to consumers. Users
can simply download the driver, install it and then forget about driver
headaches.
"Customers need robust, low latency audio drivers that are easy
to set up and don't suffer from device conflicts. We developed our Universal
Driver to support ASIO multi-host and multi-device functionality, making
it possible for users to mix and match interfaces and applications from
different manufacturers," said Michael Goodman, Managing Director
of CEntrance. "We feel consumers will welcome the flexibility of
adding channels when they need to, by adding new interfaces to their existing
setup. Manufacturers aren't left out - we support them, via driver customization."
In 2004, Oxford Semiconductor chose CEntrance to develop ASIO drivers
for its streaming FireWire audio controllers and designated CEntrance
its third-party solution provider.
Product and silicon manufacturers are invited to contact CEntrance at
(847)581-0500 or email with requests
for driver customization and FireWire audio product development.
