Lake has announced the release of a major update to its proprietary Lake Controller Software. V5.6 includes developments to the controller software itself, as well as firmware Lake hardware products.
The LM26 and Lab.Gruppen PLM series of powered loudspeaker management products both benefit from this firmware upgrade.
The update adds a Bridge Mode configuration to all PLM Series models, which allows the user to achieve a much larger output voltage swing. Several network speed and robustness improvements have also been implemented, including a switch of communication protocol from UDP Broadcast to UDP Unicast, reducing network traffic.
