Amber Technology Blog

Last weekend, Amber Technology exhibited at the Melbourne Guitar Show where we sampled some exciting new product launches and demos from Warwick, TC Electronic, Radial and so much more. To see some photos from the jam-packed weekend, scroll to the bottom of the page.

Digital Projection have released four new projectors worldwide, and you will be able to find out more about their release in Australia and New Zealand later this year at Integrate 2018.

Marlan Barry is among the world's most accomplished and recognised classical music and acoustic recording producers, having served as the head recording engineer for Houston Grand Opera for 15 years. He specialises in a range of different styles, including operatic, electro-acoustic and jazz. He recently assumed the recording and post-production responsibilities for The Orchestra Now main concert series, as well as The Bard Music Festival at the Frank Gehry designed Fisher Center for the Performing Arts at Bard College in Annandale-on-Hudson, NY. Just recently, whilst in the midst of recording Nicholas Phan’s album “Gods & Monsters”, he used DPA’s d:dicate 4003 Omnidirectional Microphone.

There are very few microphones existing in the world that can withstand the extreme cold, moisture and wind inherent in Antarctica’s harsh environment and documentary maker Nerio Gutierrez (Playground Estudio) knows DPA is arguably the best. Last year, he and his team spent six weeks aboard the Spanish Navy’s scientific vessel, Hesperides, recording the sounds of penguin colonies, whales, zodiacs and various other marine life both on and offshore, for his film Antarctica: A Message from the Frozen Planet.

Between March and June, CEDIA organised a series of Tech Forum events in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Adelaide.

Models: UHD51, UHD65 and UHZ65

Continuing from the exciting success with the launch of the UHD65 in late 2017, it is joined by the UHZ65 and UHD51 this year, completing a range of 4K projectors that satisfies all levels of use, price and image quality.

Animal shelters are often places of much angst for the animals being rehabilitated, however with the careful persistence of the work of staff and volunteers many cats, dogs and other domesticated animals are given another shot at life with a loving family. Like the Animal Welfare League in Florida, shelters can often be overcrowded due to limited funding, and the cramped environment can have a negative effect on the already vulnerable nature of its inhabitants. With some of the animals already experiencing anxiety and panic, it can be very difficult placing them in caring homes.

Infocomm were host to a number of exciting product launches this year; including Radial's new Dante enabled DI-Boxes and Luxeport's all-new charging and holding solution. However, none were more expansive than Digital Projection's announcement of a total of four new projectors across three of their ranges and the impressive innovation announcements of the IP60-rated 100% sealed optics and its proprietary ColorBoost and Red Laser technology.
