For every broadcaster, podcaster, or content streamer who has ever wanted a professional audio streaming appliance but couldn't afford it, Wheatstone introduces Wheatstream Duo at NAB 2025.
Wheatstream Duo is a full-featured streaming appliance with all the reliability, audio processing, and metadata tools found in the company’s high-capacity Wheatstream appliance, but for one or two channel applications. “We’ve kept all the reliability and capability of our high-capacity appliance in use by larger facilities but scaled it for affordability,” said Kelly Parker, Wheatstone’s Director of Product Development, who spearheaded the design.
As a Linux appliance that eliminates the need for a Windows® based PC, Wheatstream Duo can be added to any analog, digital or AoIP studio, including WheatNet IP and AES67-compatible systems. Wheatstream Duo has an easy-to-navigate HTML 5 web browser interface, is compatible with standard CDN and streaming platforms and can adapt metadata input from most playback automation systems for one simple workflow from automation to content delivery.
Unique to all Wheatstone appliances, including Wheatstream Duo, are audio processing tools designed specifically to optimize the performance of streamed audio through the streaming encoder and across a wide variety of Internet links.
Wheatstream Duo accepts two input streams of analog, AES3, AES67 or native AoIP such as WheatNet IP, each capable of four output streams for a total of 8 output streams.
Wheatstone will demonstrate Wheatstream Duo at NAB 2025, booth W1654.
