Registration Opens for Online AES Virtual Vienna Convention, June 2–5 2020

The Audio Engineering Society has officially cancelled the in-person components of the AES Vienna 2020 Convention scheduled for May 2020. While unfortunately there will be no exhibition as such, the AES decided to take the conference events online, offering new interactive possibilities to “Listen, Learn, Connect” under extraordinary circumstances. AES Virtual Vienna will offer a program of sessions that will be broadcast throughout the 4 days, after which they will be available on-demand, available to all registrants.

Blackmagic Design announced ATEM Mini Pro, a new low cost live production switcher with all the features of the existing ATEM Mini, but now with extra features for recording, streaming and monitoring. Available now for just $595, the ATEM Mini Pro includes a new hardware streaming engine to allow direct streaming via its Ethernet connection to YouTube Live, Facebook or Twitch, as well as innovative business presentations using Skype or Zoom, including live streaming in better quality, without dropped frames and with much simpler settings.
