RockNet Real-Time Low Latency Audio Distribution Networks
The RockNet audio distribution network is tailored to tour and installed sound applications. RockNet provides a universal solution to almost any imaginable audio distribution challenge and behaves very much like a traditional analog active split system. It conveys up to 160 24 bit/48kHz audio channels and operates in fully redundant cabling topologies on CAT5 or fiber. Designed specifically for heavy-duty road use, RockNets ruggedized steel enclosures resemble the look and feel of a modular stagebox. All devices feature locking IEC connectors for the redundant power supplies. All other connectors are entirely gold-plated, and the circuit design is streamlined for ultralow noise and minimum distortion to meet the highest demands in audio quality. The 300 Series features up to 180 channels of transport, while the 100 Series handles up to 80 channels. Both feature remote gains, remote control via RockWorks, convenient front-panel operation, and up to 99 devices per network.

RockNet Console Interfaces for SSL, Soundcraft Si, Studer, and Yamaha
Riedel provides RockNet expansion solutions with interface cards for Solid State Logic (SSL), Soundcraft, Studer, and Yamaha consoles. Next-generation firmware for the RockNet RN.334.MD MADI interface makes SSL mixing consoles an integrated part of the Riedel RockNet digital audio network, with complete remote control functionality over all gains and the flexibility of RockNet's renowned independent gain feature. As a result, several mixing consoles can operate with the same mic preamps without affecting one other -- a capability that greatly simplifies multiconsole and recording setups. Riedel's RN.344.SI card enables integration with any Soundcraft Si Compact console, supporting 32 inputs and 32 outputs to the RockNet system. The interface enables remote control of any RockNet mic preamp and also offers the benefit of RockNet's independent gain feature. The RN.343.VI card ensures compatibility with select Soundcraft and Studer consoles, while the RN341.MY works with select Yamaha consoles and host devices.
