L-Acoustics adds Mixhalo AI-powered translation to L-ISA

L-Acoustics has added an AI-powered translation service to the L-ISA platform.

Mixhalo Translate enables attendees at live events to enjoy AI-generated foreign-language interpretation and transcription through a smartphone and headphones. The accuracy of the translations ensures an inclusive experience for all, without requiring expensive and cumbersome sound packs.

The Mixhalo appo won the audio technology and event technology categories in November’s AV Awards. The service was unveiled at ISE and has been launched as a beta before being made publicly available later this year.

Mixhalo’s real-time audio streaming software provides high-fidelity, low-latency audio for audiences at events such as conferences. It has been integrated into the L-Acoustics L-ISA Processor II since last year.

L-Acoustics’ director of product management, Asher Dowson, said: “Bringing revolutionary AI translation and high-fidelity on-device audio streaming in one integrated solution, enabled by the new Mixhalo Control interface for configuring and managing streams, unlocks audience personalisation and inclusivity for a host of new experiences and event formats.”

Mixhalo chief operations officer Corey Laplante said: “Mixhalo Translate will revolutionise the way event organisers procure and provide interpretation services – and the way that attendees consume content at live events.

“By delivering AI-generated content directly to a user’s own phone and headphones, we have built a modern solution for today’s live events.”
