The NAB show will take place from April 13 to April 17, 2024, in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Wohler Technologies, a manufacturer of video, audio, and data monitoring solutions, has announced they will launch two new budget-priced baseband-only, 16-channel audio/video monitors at NAB 2024, available for shipment in June.
Competitively priced, the eVAM1-1 can monitor and meter up to 16 channels of 3G-SDI audio and video in a compact 1u format. Utilising a single 2.4” touch screen, operators may toggle between video, meters, and menus. The eVAM1-1+ adds an HDMI option card with both HDMI input and output (the output will be the monitored video input, either SDI or HDMI). Both units benefit from dual SDI inputs with a selected SDI out, a pair of balanced analogue inputs and outputs on XLR, with a second pair of analogue inputs on RCAs, and a pair of AES inputs & outputs on BNC. Both eVAMs benefit from phase monitoring, 8 presets, and a headphone output.
A single 2.4” touch screen front panel utilises mature design philosophies from previous Wohler products, while physical front panel controls provide access to main volume, balance, and auxiliary controls to supplement the touch controls. Individual audio channels may be summed, soloed, or muted by touch or mechanical control, also in line with other Wohler units (e.g. iAM AUDIO+, iAM SUMs, iAM-12G-SDI).
A front-mounted USB port is provided for software updates and a network interface allows for remote management, while APIs allow for easy integration with 3rd party controllers – the perfect solution for any application that requires a compact and budget-friendly baseband-only unit for monitoring.
“As a company, we’re aware that not every customer requires IP monitoring or the latest bells and whistles. Both models will be equally at home in both the professional broadcast market as well as in our growing AV market,” said Amol Natekar, VP of Engineering. “We are looking forward to the eVAM1-1 and the eVAM1-1+ meeting a wide range of needs in the marketplace for those that don’t need IP but want a
