Merging Technologies Ovation 11 is an audio playout system and show controller. Ideal for theme parks, broadcast, live events and museums, it offers powerful cue management and interaction, precise show control through industry-standard protocols, and advanced audio mixing and routing for even the most complex immersive setups. Running on Windows 10/11, Ovation manages up to 96 I/O with an ASIO sound card, or uses the low-latency MASSCORE audio engine (available as an additional product) for up to 384 I/O.
ADJUSTING A SHOW IS EASY!
During show rehearsals, last-minute adjustments are inevitable. The creative glue is still setting, and the magic is still forming — changes need to happen fast. There's no time to re-export and re-import between applications. With Ovation, recording audio directly into a cue is simple, no matter the format. Editing is just as smooth, thanks to a tight integration with Merging Technologies’ Pyramix DAW. With the push of a button, a cue can be opened in Pyramix, edited in detail, and sent straight back to Ovation — instantly. No need to fear changes — embrace them. The show can be fine-tuned down to the last detail, effortlessly. This flexibility also applies to automation. For example, accurately writing pan automation is often only possible once you're in the venue. Recording new automation into a cue is just as straightforward.
BUILT-IN MIXER
Ovation features a powerful integrated audio mixer, supporting up to 48 I/O in Native mode. When powered by the MASSCORE engine, this expands to an impressive 384 I/O, with ultra-low latency that enables real-time mixing of live inputs — just like a digital console or dedicated DSP. Out of the box, Ovation provides “Strip Tools” — a high-quality EQ and dynamics section. The mixer also supports VST and VS3 plugins, offering a wide array of audio processing and effects options.
SHOW CONTROLS THE WAY YOU NEED IT AND WHERE YOU NEED IT
Ovation not only lets you build highly complex shows — it also helps you keep everything under control with a stress-free, graphical interface that displays only what you need, exactly where you need it. The control interface is fully customizable, so you can focus only on the cues relevant to you. Ovation also runs a webserver which means that the custom user interface can be made available to a tablet or smartphone on the network.
ULTRA-HIGH RESOLUTION
Staying true to Merging Technologies’ design philosophy, Ovation supports ultra-high-resolution audio formats such as DSD256, DXD, and 384 kHz. When paired with Merging Technologies interfaces and the MASSCORE engine, Ovation provides the perfect signal chain with ultra-low latency and no compromise on audio quality.
