Streaming DSD audio comes to the AES

Abstract: The AES Technical Committee on Network Audio Systems will demonstrate streaming of six channels of DSD audio (the 2.8 MHz sampling system used for SACD), transmitting a live jazz performance at McGill University in Montreal, Canada, in real time, to the University of California San Francisco's Genentech Hall. The audience will experience the performance with the latest in audio technology, accompanied by an SDI digital video projection, transmitted using the McGill UltraVideoconferencing sytem. Technical issues and implications to future recording and performance applications will be discussed.
