Wohler upgrades video monitor

Video monitoring specialist Wohler Technologies has announced enhancements to its AMP2-E16V audio/video-processing monitor.

Version five of the new AMP2-E16V will be on display at IBC. It features a new automation configuration menu and hot keys that allow the unit to recall presets automatically based on a predefined set of conditions. In addition to new automation and channel-cluster configuration options, version five now offers support for both Dolby and SMPTE 2020 metadata-based downmixing, more specific status window descriptors, and remote setup and software update options via Ethernet connection.

The AMP2-E16V features dual 4.3-inch OLED displays that support video monitoring, metadata monitoring, loudness metering, audio routing and mix controls and Dolby Zoom functions. In addition to enabling simultaneous multi-format monitoring for up to 16 channels of 3G/HD/SD-SDI, AES, analog, or TOSLINK inputs in any combination, the system enables concurrent loudness monitoring and complete mixing and routing freedom, according to the company.

Version 5 update is available as an upgrade to all current AMP2-16V and AMP2-E16V owners and comes standard on all new AMP2-16V and AMP2-E16V units being shipped. Current customers can upgrade their existing units via the Wohler website, and the update will also include all new features from the previous version four release.
