MUMBAI: The signal is loud and clear, Cobalt Digital is making serious waves at Broadcastasia 2025. The award-winning signal processing pioneer has rolled into Singapore with a powerhouse lineup of gear that’s equal parts precision engineering and next-gen swagger.

From debuting its ARIA Aud-Mon Audio Monitor, a sleek, rack-mounted unit designed for top-tier sound in tight spaces to showcasing its IPMX-ready Sapphire mini converters and Pacific encoders, Cobalt is proving it’s not just keeping pace with broadcast innovation, but setting it.

The ARIA Aud-Mon, inspired by real-world operator feedback, comes with eight mixable audio channels, a touch display, class-D amp, and a buffet of input options including SDI, MADI, AES, and even GPI. And yes, there’s a live video thumbnail because why not?

Also on the floor is Cobalt’s Sapphire BBG range of mini converters tiny titans capable of HDMI-to-IPMX wizardry. These featherweight champs can mount behind monitors, operate near-silently, and juggle formats with ease. Meanwhile, the Pacific 9992-ENC encoder keeps things spicy with support for 4K, ST 2110, JPEG-XS, and asynchronous IPMX feeds all on an openGear card.

Not to be outdone, the UltraBlue IP-MV software multiviewer gives broadcasters a no-fuss, format-agnostic view of the action supporting compressed, uncompressed, and SDI inputs, complete with audio bars and captioning. It’s even cool with portrait mode if your display is feeling dramatic.

For routing needs, the Wave RTR-64x64 and RTR-32x32 models are Cobalt’s answer to the high-bandwidth prayer both built for 12G-SDI, web-controlled, and ready to tango with third-party protocols. Pair them with Cobalt’s smart control panels and you’ve got a broadcast ops room that runs like a dream.

And because every great show needs a solid foundation, Cobalt’s new openGear-compatible frames the HPF-9500 and HPF-MAX pack serious power (360W and 600W respectively) while fitting right into the most demanding racks.

Whether you’re into live production, digital transformation or just tired of juggling cables and converters, Cobalt’s BroadcastAsia booth (5F1-1) is clearly the place to tune in.

One thing’s for sure: this is signal processing, amplified.
