UDC Touch

Ever since High Resolution Systems LLC launched its Universal Device Controller (UDC), a software-based control platform that allows simple, cost-effective control of devices using IP (TCP/UDP) or serial (232/422/485) protocols, user feedback has been full of kudos.

Take EventEQ, a full-service rental and staging facility based in Columbia, Maryland. “We primarily use our UDC as a control surface for the Christie Vista Spyder, and we love it,” says Joe Cassara. “We like UDC’s backstage footprint, which offers all the functionality of larger Spyder controllers. We have used it for device mixers and recalling script cues and presets and will use it to control our AJA Ki Pros and playback pro machines.”

Cassara says EventEQ tapped UDC for BAE Systems in Chicago and for three different events at the Mellon Auditorium in Washington, more

— Co-producing with KISS’s Paul Stanley, Collins is able to get the warm sound of analog tape while not having to sacrifice any of the convenience of digital recording, thanks to CLASP® —

NASHVILLE, TN, June 21, 2011 — Engineer/producer Greg Collins, known for his work with No Doubt, U2, Matchbox Twenty, and dozens of other top acts, was looking for ways to evolve the sound he and rock legends KISS had achieved on their first collaboration, 2009’s Sonic Boom, as the band records their new upcoming LP. Sonic Boom was recorded on analog tape and edited in Pro Tools, but the two processes were separate from each other, necessitating frequent extended pauses in recording for tape transfers. The recording of the new LP, on the other hand, makes good use of Endless Analog’s CLASP® (Closed Loop Analog Signal Processor) system, which uniquely integrates more
