Wheatstone for Radio
Wheatstone is ubiquitous in the radio industry. Since our early days, we've been making consoles that take radio further. Our networking set the standard for the industry, leading the way to modern AoIP networks. Our open architecture lets us partner with other industry folks to provide solutions that open doors for functionality. Our virtual tools provide solutions that are customizable to address just about any application you can think of. And our processing sets new standards for audio delivery.
We are constantly at it, developing tools that allow radio to address the need to be in many locations at once while maintaining control specific to their workflows from wherever they happen to be. In short, we are your Broadcast Perfectionists.

WheatNet-IP Networking
WheatNet-IP is a network system that utilizes Internet Protocol to enable audio to be intelligently distributed to devices across scaleable networks. It enables all audio sources to be available to all devices (such as mixing consoles, control surfaces, software controllers, automation devices, etc) and controlled from any and all devices. WheatNet-IP is AES67 compatible, yet is unique in that it represents an entire end-to-end solution, complete with audio transport, full control, and a toolset to enable exceptionally intelligent deployment and operation.
Streamblade & Wheatstream
Streamblade and Wheatstream let you stream multiple channels of stereo audio directly from your WheatNet-IP network. AAC, MP3, and OPUS formats are supported.
Stagebox One
The 4RU StageBox One extends console I/O, providing 32 mic/line inputs, 16 analog line outputs, and 8 AES3 inputs and 8 AES3 outputs as well as 12 logic ports and two Ethernet ports. Its heavy duty construction makes it adept for on-the-go applications, such as remote sporting events. StageBox One works with all WheatNet-IP audio networked consoles.
BLADES (including Blade 4 preview)
BLADES are the interfaces used to build a WheatNet-IP network. Each BLADE has enough functionality to be a complete radio studio. I/O, Processing, Routing, exceptional control over all aspects of your network, AES67 compatibility for working with other networks – a world of power in each BLADE.

On-Air Broadcast and Mic/Voice Processors
Wheatstone is different. Radio stations that use our processors know that they can reach more listeners, due to our multipath mitigation controls. They know that they can build a more compelling sound - cleaner and louder - to keep that increased listenership from tuning out. In a market with so many processors to choose from, people who check out Wheatstone processing never go back to the status quo.
