E-MU announces PIPEline Wireless Transmitter and Receiver System
High-quality, low latency, stereo Wi-Fi system for musicians
SCOTTS VALLEY, CA - January 15, 2009 - E-MU® Systems has announced the release of the new PIPEline wireless stereo audio transmitter/receiver system. The PIPEline has been designed to free musicians from their audio cables without sacrificing audio quality. PIPEline can be used as a wireless transceiver for a guitar or keyboard, or as the basis of a wireless In-Ear monitoring system for a band.
Because latency is so critical in music performance, PIPEline has a minimal delay of only 6.6 ms, so it won't interfere with the feel of the music. A PIPEline'd musician can move anywhere within a 15 meter range from the receiver. PIPEline also has three independent stereo channels, which means that three instruments can be completely independent with zero crosstalk.
PIPEline is also a great solution for low-cost In-Ear monitoring, supporting up to three separate stereo monitor mixes, or one transmitter can send a group mix to multiple receivers.
PIPEline will ship in the Spring of 2009. Price to be announced.
