FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Klavis and ZP Engineering join forces in a new partnership to provide developers with easy-to-implement streaming solutions integrating the powerful capabilities of CopperLan in audio products.

BRUSSELS ‐ April 10, 2009 ‐ At the outset of a presentation to the press at the last Music Show in Frankfurt, Klavis announced a new partnership with ZP Engineering that is aimed at complementing CopperLan's capabilities, offering unified streaming solutions.

Managing the flows and controlling the processing of audio streams is an integral part of CopperLan's versatile networking system.
In addition to the need for managing streaming formats and in particular those that lack proper command and control, CopperLan provides a validated solution for an easy integration of all the typical advantages of its Universal Editing in a unified streaming environment.

"This partnership is a significant step forward in further integrating CopperLan in the area of audio streaming", said Eric Lukac‐Kuruc, Chief Technical Officer and co‐founder of Klavis Technologies s.a., "ZP Engineering brings over 10 years of experience and expertise in supplying the industry with high quality audio designs".

"We are thrilled to take on this new challenge and join our forces to offer designers fully pre‐validated/tested hi‐end quality audio solutions that should dramatically shorten their product development cycle while integrating CopperLan's rich command & control capabilities in their audio applications" commented Umberto Zanghieri, general manager and co‐founder of ZP Engineering srl.

CopperLan (www.copperlan.org) is an initiative from Klavis Technologies s.a, a company founded in January 2000 by a group of individuals from the pro‐audio and MI industry. The company has since earned endorsement by foremost companies in the MI industry and obtained grant funding from the Belgian Federal Government.

(www.ict7.com), have entered into a joint venture, leading to a 35 people strong team contributing to enhance the technical skills and marketing know‐how in support of CopperLan.
