Live Design International (LDI) 2024

This training introduces attendees to the Dante platform. It offers fundamental knowledge on digital
audio, network addressing and how to use Dante Controller with your Dante devices. This course provides enough knowledge to operate a Dante system in daisy chain mode or with a single network switch.
Accreditation: 3.0 AVIXA CTS RU Credits
Requirements: Pass the Dante Level 1 Certification test after the course to become certified.
Learning Objective 1: Upon completion, attendees will be able to design, setup and operate a Dante audio/video system on a single network switch.
Learning Objective 2: Upon completion, attendees will gain an improved understanding of fundamentals in digital audio, digital video, and networking.
Learning Objective 3: Upon completion, attendees will be able to explain the benefits of a complete networked solution as opposed to point-to-point connections, digital snakes or "AVoIP protocols".

Dante Certification Level 2 offers a deeper explanation of how to create larger networks. This class
offers insights on how much bandwidth is used, how to manage it, basic optimization, and factors to consider if you want to synchronize to an external clock. Level 2 is helpful for those working on systems that will involve multiple network switches.

Accreditation: 3.0 AVIXA CTS RU Credits

Requirements: Pass the Dante Level 2 Certification test after to become certified.

Learning Objective 1: Upon completion, attendees will be able to design, set up, operate, and troubleshoot a Dante audio/video system that spans multiple network switches.

Learning Objective 2: Upon completion, attendees will obtain increased confidence in networking and the underlying principles to build truly robust, reliable systems.

Learning Objective 3: Upon completion, attendees will gain an understanding of networking that should foster informed conversations with IT departments.

Attendees with audio or video backgrounds will each get something different from this course.  Those with audio backgrounds will learn fundamentals of video transmission, from basic synchronization to video compression and how Dante AV produces broadcast quality, visually lossless images across a variety of signal types.  Those with video backgrounds will appreciate seeing live demonstrations of Dante AV systems not just with beautify imagery but demonstrating the tight synchronization and performance on simple 1Gbps switches.
