d&b audiotechnik announced the launch of En-Bridge, a new software tool for the Soundscape ecosystem. With this new software, d&b “streamlines the interoperability between the DS100 signal engine and leading third-party systems.”

En-Bridge is a stand-alone software available for Windows and macOS that provides OSC bridging and third-party protocol translation for remote control of Soundscape parameters on the DS100 signal engine. It allows BlackTrax tracking systems to be used for automatic object positioning on a Soundscape system, including the latest BT-1 system, by translating the BlackTrax RTTrPM protocol into DS100 OSC commands and providing additional mapping functionality.

d&b also says En-Bridge delivers a more consistent workflow for Soundscape console control with DiGiCo and SSL consoles, including support for bidirectional communication. This OSC bridging functionality can also be used for generic OSC controllers, allowing any connected controllers to communicate with two DS100s — allowing third-party integration and remote control to be used in redundant DS100 setups for Soundscape.

The En-Bridge software provides users with an intuitive, streamlined interface for establishing third-party interoperability for their Soundscape application, including communication monitoring, which allows users to monitor incoming data from third-party devices for troubleshooting purposes.
