THD Podcast 137 - THD 137 Triad Semiconductor 156dB Range Current-Conveyor AFE Handles Mic & +28dBu Ln Signals w/o Pads
<p>The Total Harmonic Discussion / the THD Podcast. A weekly discussion on audio and headphone technologies and the people who bring the technology to market.</p><p><br></p><p>In episode 137 of the THD Podcast, Tony Doy and Phillip Muehring from Triad Semiconductor join to introduce the Universal Audio Analog Front End (AFE) TS5510.</p><p><br></p><p>The TS5510 is a two-channel, high-performance Universal Analog Front End (AFE) developed by Triad Semiconductor. It is designed to bridge the gap between high-level line signals and low-level microphone inputs for modern audio systems, particularly professional mixing consoles and recording equipment. Basically, you can run mics directly into a mixer without a preamp. </p><p><br></p><p>The TS5510 is a dual-channel analog front end that simplifies audio hardware design by replacing traditional, complex input stages with a "universal" signal path. Its unique current-conveyor architecture allows a single input to handle everything from low-level microphones to high-output instruments without needing mechanical switches or pads, while its massive 156 dB capture range makes it the ideal partner for 32-bit float recording systems to eliminate clipping. By integrating high-precision digital gain control and superior noise rejection into a compact chip, it enables manufacturers to build smaller, more reliable professional mixers, field recorders, and audio interfaces with a significantly reduced part count. </p><p><br></p><p>Check out the podcast on @YouTube @Spotify @amazonmusic @iHeartRadio @RumbleVideo @Apple @Google</p><p><br></p><p>Thanks to Barry Vogel and the ALTI Audio & Loudspeaker Technologies International for their support as well!</p><p><br></p><p>Thanks to AudioXpress for their support on this episode as well!</p><p><br></p><p>#audioengineering #acoustics #SignalProcessing #AnalogFrontEnd #Studio #studiorecording </p><p><br></p><p>Please like, subscribe, share, and comment with your feedback!

THD Podcast 136 - Hearing Health and Auracast: The Mission to Overcome the 10% Global Market Penetration
<p>The Total Harmonic Discussion / the THD Podcast. A weekly discussion on audio and headphone technologies and the people who bring the technology to market.</p><p><br></p><p>In episode 136 of the THD Podcast, Andrew Bellavia, founder of AuraFuturity, highlights a massive gap in the hearing health market: of the 1.5 billion people worldwide living with hearing loss, only about 10 million are fitted with hearing aids annually. He views this low penetration as a massively underserved market. He further advocates for a shift toward consumer-centric products such as OTC hearing devices and the Bluetooth SIG's Auracast a to bridge the divide</p><p><br></p><p>Check out the podcast on @YouTube @Spotify @amazonmusic @iHeartRadio @RumbleVideo @Apple @Google</p><p><br></p><p>Thanks to Barry Vogel and the ALTI Audio & Loudspeaker Technologies International for their support as well!</p><p><br></p><p>Thanks to AudioXpress for their support on this episode as well!</p><p><br></p><p>#audioengineering #acoustics #hearinghealth #HearingLoss #HearingAids #audiology #betterhearing #HearWell #hearingcare </p><p><br></p><p>Please like, subscribe, share, and comment with your feedback!

THD Podcast 135 - Remora Is a Headphone 3.0 Platform Enabling Customization w/ Apps for Headphones, Hearing AI
<p>The Total Harmonic Discussion / the THD Podcast. A weekly discussion on audio and headphone technologies and the people who bring the technology to market.</p><p><br /></p><p>In episode 135 of the THD Podcast, Gary Spittle from Sonical joins to tell us about his Remora project. Remora PRO is a first-of-its-kind "head-worn computing platform" designed by Sonical to transform existing headphones into intelligent, programmable devices—a concept the company calls Headphone 3.0. It is primarily an external wireless accessory that adds high-fidelity, ultra-low-latency connectivity and app-based customization to traditional wired or wireless headphones. </p><p><br /></p><p>Core Technology</p><p>Ultra-Wideband (UWB) Wireless: Unlike standard Bluetooth, Remora PRO uses UWB to deliver uncompressed, lossless audio (up to 24-bit/96kHz) with imperceptible latency of less than 5ms.</p><p>CosmOS Operating System: It runs on Sonical's CosmOS, a dedicated "operating system for the ear" that allows users to download third-party plugins and apps directly onto the hardware.</p><p>Audio Hardware: The device features a THX Achromatic Audio Amplifier (THX AAA™) for ultra-low distortion, an ESS Sabre DAC, and an XMOS USB interface.</p><p>BodyWave™ Antenna: To prevent the signal dropouts common with wearable UWB tech, it incorporates AntennaWare's BodyWave technology, ensuring a stable link even when blocked by the user's body. </p><p><br /></p><p>Key Features & Use Cases</p><p>Customizable Audio: Through the CosmOS platform, users can add features like personalized EQ profiles, spatial audio rendering, and hearing protection.</p><p>Health & Wellness: It supports advanced health algorithms, including tinnitus sound therapy (developed with Newcastle University) and HearAngel smart hearing safeguarding.</p><p>Universal Compatibility: It can attach to any pair of headphones and connect to sources via analog, USB, or Bluetooth.</p><p>Professional Focus: Targeted at DJs, audio engineers, and gamers who require the reliability of a wired connection with the freedom of wireless. </p><p><br /></p><p>Availability & Pricing</p><p>Estimated Price: Approximately USD $949 / £759 / €890 for the complete system (wearable unit and UWB dongle). Status: As of early 2026, the product is in trial manufacturing at the Sony UK Technology Centre in Wales to prepare for large-scale production</p><p><br /></p><p>Check out the podcast on @YouTube @Spotify @amazonmusic @iHeartRadio @RumbleVideo @Apple @Google</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks to Barry Vogel and the ALTI Audio & Loudspeaker Technologies International for their support as well!</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks to AudioXpress for their support on this episode as well!</p><p><br /></p><p>#audioengineering #acoustics #simulation </p><p><br /></p><p>Please like, subscribe, share, and comment with your feedback!
