Thank you for joining us at ISE 2025! We were thrilled to welcome so many visitors to our booth #E260 in Hall 7 to watch engaging presentations, participate in hands-on demos, and connect with peers at our Product Development Meet-up – which was a resounding success and will definitely be repeated.
AES70 is very much a living and evolving standard. As media networks expand in relevance and complexity, the ability of AES70 to grow in parallel to offer new components and solutions enhances the value for developers in combining standards and technologies to create holistic solutions.
For those who were interested in learning more, the OCA Alliance held the following presentations at the OCA Alliance booth, #E260:

At ISE 2024, Matt Hardy demonstrated how to monitor and control 2 Welliver Technologies AES67 amplifiers, using AES70.
This website contains his ‘Build an AES70 Controller’ booth presentation slides, as well as some very useful links and information on the subject.
AES70 Explorer is software designed to connect, expose and control parameters in OCA objects to support hardware engineers developing or integrating AES70 into Pro Audio devices. The software provides a UI builder for fast setup of engineering interfaces and can simultaneously test multiple devices using an array of Pro Audio control widgets via the AES70 Standard.
The Smart pi DSP (Digital Signal Processor) is the next generation of digital PA processors with massive audio processing ability that can support the smallest to the very largest of systems. The Smart pi DSP is completely modular and future upgradeable via simple firmware updates. It is based on industry standards including Dante and OCA/AES70. All configuration is managed in a simple web interface and can be externally controlled via OCA/AES70.
ESP32-LyraT is an open-source development board for Espressif Systems’ Audio Development Framework (ADF). DeusO implemented AES70 for the ESP32-WROVER-B module using libaes70.cpp, for controlling the DSP Codec for gain, EQ and level. Included in the demo is an example AES70 controller UI using AES70.js and AUX Control Widgets.
The WT-NA120 is a 20w single channel PoE+ enabled network amplifier demonstrating support for AES67 and AES70 remote control. AES70 support is provided by DeusO and Audio transport uses a Welliver Tech developed AES67 implementation including SAP stream discovery.
The RA-ES70DSP04 is a professional audio DSP module with built-in open standard AES70 remote control functionality.
Manufacturers aiming to develop an AVB/Milan or OCA/AES70 device will find a valuable and cost-effective tool in this evaluation board to test and evaluate their product design.
By offering a flexible configuration, it can serve a wide range of use cases and hardware architectures in implementing OCA/AES70 and AVB/Milan protocols.
AUX Panel is a software that deploys near-zero-logic control user interfaces consisting of control widgets that ‘Get’ and ‘Set’ parameters on devices using the AES70 Standard Protocol.
Key users are Integrators who need last-mile-controllers for common ancillary functionality in fixed or partially fixed installation scenarios. AUX Panel fills the role of permanent access to simple control settings, with on demand, per-install, device-control and other monitoring functions.
NAM is a commercial and industrial amplifier. It can be installed in the field and close to speaker locations. Base NAM has 4 x 12-Watt RMS class D amplifiers, an Ethernet switch with 2 fibre and 2 ethernet ports. A NAM-HP (High Powered) has 4 x 75-Watt with TCoil and induction loops catering to hearing impaired. Both NAMs include built in DSP (EQ, FIR, delay and gain), and utilise AES70 for control of all configuration and realtime operation.

AUX Panel runs alongside existing Pro Audio vendor-made software and provides simple, always-ready control UIs on fixed install touch panels. The software provides Integrators a flexible UI Builder deploying customised control interfaces via a Native Android App. The App connects directly to devices operating standalone on a local area network, and interacts with devices using the AES70 Standard Control Protocol.

Lukktone, an Australian company founded by composer and musician Luke Howard, has developed a native Swift implementation of AES70 for both controllers and devices. They demonstrated how this can be integrated with Flutter to deploy a consistent user interface across embedded Linux, iOS, macOS and Android. They also demonstrated a prototype of the Monitor Two, our network-enabled personal monitor mixer, which uses AES70 on a Raspberry Pi CM4 for its control plane.
Python is a general purpose programming language well-used in network and automation environments. AES70py enables AES70 communication for IT systems of network services connected to OCA devices.
