WUPPERTAL, Germany—Riedel Communications will feature the Live Production Experience, a connected demonstration that follows the production chain from image capture and signal transport to live switching, replay, audio processing, monitoring, control, communications and delivery during IBC 2026, Sept. 11-14, at the RAI Amsterdam Convention Center.
Rather than presenting each technology in isolation, Riedel will show how its systems can work together within a coordinated, IP-focused environment to simplify operations and give production teams a more consistent and flexible way to build, run and evolve their workflows.
At the center of the demonstration are the SimplyLive Production Suite Flex, now expanded with SMPTE ST 2110-capable server configurations; MediorNet’s hybrid SDI-IP and native ST 2110 capabilities; SAME audio processing; and hi human interface as the overarching control and orchestration layer. With ARRI camera technology at the point of image capture, the demonstration makes the end-to-end vision tangible by connecting the production workflow within one coordinated IP environment.
Riedel will also make the IBC premieres of the MediorNet HorizoN ST 2110 MultiViewer App, the DSP-1216HL Commentary Control App and the StageLink NSA008-A as well as unveil intercom and audio developments.
SimplyLIveRiedel will highlight new Flex server configurations adding SMPTE ST 2110 to the SimplyLive platform’s existing support for SDI, SRT NDI, and other video workflows. The expansion broadens deployment choices and allows SimplyLive to fit more directly into ST 2110 production environments and Riedel’s wider IP infrastructure.
Further enhancements bring new capabilities and greater operational flexibility to the SimplyLive software suite. Alongside integration with SKAARHOJ control panels, Riedel will showcase new Venue Gateway options.
MediorNetThe new MediorNet HorizoN ST 2110 MultiViewer App expands native IP capabilities and reinforces HorizoN’s role in modern ST 2110-based infrastructures. The new app brings multiviewing directly into the MediorNet processing environment. It extends Riedel’s established multiviewer approach into native IP environments while maintaining the operational flexibility required for modern live production.
hi human interfaceRiedel's hi human interface is a vendor-agnostic control and orchestration platform. Browser-based, platform-independent and vendor-agnostic, hi enables operators to configure, control, and manage routers, multiviewers, video and audio mixers, software-defined networks (SDNs) and other third-party technologies with a unified interface.
Supporting baseband, IP or hybrid infrastructures, hi adapts to different users, operational roles, and production environments.
Smart Audio and Edge ConnectivityRiedel will showcase its SAME Smart Audio & Mixing Engine, an advanced audio processing software suite built on commercial off-the-shelf server cluster technology. Designed for scalable and automated workflows, SAME provides flexible processing resources that can adapt to changing production requirements.
Its distributed approach separates audio processing from individual physical workspaces, allowing resources to be accessed and managed across different locations. This supports a broad range of applications, including mixing, monitoring, voice-over, loudness management, signal analysis and in-line processing.
At the edge of the network, Riedel’s expanding StageLink Network Stream Adapter family provides compact, rugged devices for decentralized audio and intercom connectivity over standard IP networks. At IBC, Riedel will premiere the new StageLink NSA008-A, supporting flexible signal distribution within Artist, Bolero and wider IP audio environments.
Bolero and Bolero MiniThe company will introduce enhancements across its Bolero wireless intercom portfolio with new 5G filtering for Bolero antennas and beltpacks. The enhancements are designed to increase resilience in demanding RF environments and support reliable communications in increasingly congested production settings. Bolero beltpacks will also feature a refreshed, more robust hardware design, along with new RF-resilient options.
Bolero Mini complements the full-size Bolero beltpack. It combines four programmable keys and dedicated volume controls with the audio performance, RF capabilities, Bluetooth connectivity, and operational concepts of the wider Bolero ecosystem.
The company will also feature:
- The Artist Ecosystem with Virtual SmartPanel and 1200 Series SmartPanels.
- Easy5G private 5G network support.
- DIVA+ managed technology for complex live events environments.
