Unified Virtual IP Audio: Lawo’s HOME Power Core and HOME Audio Shuffler for modern radio facilities
Lawo’s HOME Power Core and HOME Audio Shuffler form a complementary, IP‑native processing platform for high‑density, low‑latency radio workflows.
The HOME Power Core app virtualizes the DSP engine of the Lawo Power Core hardware, delivering mc²‑grade audio processing, real‑time mixing, routing and monitoring on COTS servers for diamond, crystal and crystal Clear consoles. It offers native Ravenna/AES67 and SMPTE ST2110 support, with optional Dante, NDI and SRT connectivity. The app links to all IP sources in a HOME‑managed environment, including Power Core hardware, A__line, .edge, and third-party devices. Broadcasters can scale DSP capacity via perpetual licenses or Flex credits. These capabilities build on the hardware Power Core’s high-density Ravenna/AES67 and MADI interfaces, its 1,920×1,920 internal matrix and up to 96 channels of DSP input processing, with optional VSM-controlled headless operation.
The HOME Audio Shuffler app provides virtualized routing and remapping. Designed for IP-based dynamic media facilities, it handles SMPTE ST2110 30/31 and AES67 audio with minimal latency, providing ST2022 7 protection and automatic restart for 24/7 operation. It supports up to 16,384 inputs and outputs, and symmetrical flow sizes ranging from 64 to 2,048 RX/TX streams, each with up to 64 channels, selectable across six matrix packages. Routing, shuffling and stream customization are managed via the HOME Terminal Routing Matrix, VSM control, or external controllers via the HOME API.
Together, both apps create a unified, scalable, software‑based audio infrastructure optimized for modern radio on standard IT hardware.
