XTA updates control software with iCore2

20 December 2010

UK - XTA's iCore software package was developed to provide the interface for sister company MC² Audio's Ti Series and XTA's DC1048 integrated audio management system. Now, the new iCore2 package has been extended to support all 4Series products as well as adding a number of features that will make operating systems - whether in live sound or fixed installations simpler.

iCore2 sees upgraded control features including the aforementioned control of 4 Series devices, Parameter Linking, Custom Control Panels, application auto-update and wireless kit compatibility.

The XTA 4-Series is completely supported by iCore. Although Library Manager files cannot be handled by iCore, presets and memories (including those with locked parameters) can be uploaded from 4-Series devices to iCore. Settings can be intelligently copied and pasted from 4 Series memories and presets into DC1048 devices to assemble new configurations without having to start from scratch.

The linking of parameters between units simplifies system control and becomes a powerful tool when used in conjunction with custom control panels. iCore2 works with Windows XP, Vista and Win7.

"iCore2 is another step forward in supplying easy to use, comprehensive control across our product range," says XTA sales director, Bill Woods. "It adds a further dimension to the scope of applications that our products can be used for and is part of our ongoing commitment to continually provide our users with improved performance.

"iCore2 is downloadable now from the XTA website - www.xta.co.uk. I should also point out that Audiocore support continues as ever - so all of those system techs and engineers who rely on Audiocore control - fear not!"
