A host of additions to Riedel’s intercom and live production portfolio will be on show at IBC2025, including the DSP-1216HL SmartPanel, a compact, ergonomic desktop intercom panel, and StageLink smart edge devices for decentralised IP audio and intercom workflows.
Also on show is an expanding portfolio of virtualised systems, including the Virtual SmartPanel (VSP) for flexible, mobile intercom access and the SAME Smart Audio and Mixing Engine.
The DSP-1216HL SmartPanel brings the flexibility of Riedel’s 1200 Series to a compact desktop form factor. Supporting all three SmartPanel apps – Intercom, Control Panel, and Audio Monitoring – it is a multifunctional, space saver.
StageLink is rugged, compact and designed to simplify IP-based audio and intercom workflows. Using network infrastructure, it enables decentralised, scalable signal distribution for microphones, GPIOs, and intercom systems.
SAME and the VSP are part of Riedel’s continued move towards virtualisation. SAME delivers more than 30 advanced audio processing tools on COTS server clusters, enabling fully automated, scalable audio workflows, while VSP brings secure, platform-independent intercom access to mobile devices and browsers, building the foundation for server-based hybrid deployment models.
