Powersoft has announced that it will introduce Verso, a new gateway device designed to connect current Powersoft products to its MyUniverso cloud platform, as well as the expansion of its Unica power amplifier line, at the upcoming 2024 ISE Show in Spain at Fira de Barcelona at stand 7E700.
Formerly known as Universo, MyUniverso has now merged into MyPowersoft to help ensure that all users with MyPowersoft accounts can access the cloud platform. Verso is a half-RU device designed to enable access to the MyUniverso cloud platform and all its related functionalities for the company’s entire amplifier portfolio, allowing monitoring and centralised remote firmware updates for all connected amplifiers as well as supporting Powersoft’s Dynamic Music Distribution (DMD) platform.
The Powersoft team will be on hand to present Verso’s logging and data storage capabilities, which ensures local continuity or service even during internet outages. Verso also incorporates the Easy Swap procedure, introduced as part of Unica’s features at ISE 2023, making it more simple to address any service outage swiftly in the rare event of a malfunction.
The gateway device is compatible with third-party cloud platforms, providing users access to baseline cloud project backend information. Additionally, through Verso it is possible to access MyUniverso’s remote firmware update functionality, minimising the need for repeated trips to installation sites.
Powersoft will also showcase the new lower-power Unica 1K8 and Unica 5K4, designed for smaller applications. In addition, the Unica Series now benefits from the addition of DMD functionalities, previously exclusive only to Mezzo.
“We are looking forward to presenting Verso and the new Unica models at this year’s ISE,” says Powersoft sales director Luca Giorgi. “Last year’s edition of ISE saw us unveil the Unica Series, which is the most efficient and highest-performing amplifier we have released to date. With the launch of the two new low-power models of Unica and the addition of DMD features extending background music capabilities, we are pursuing the goal of offering a platform able to meet different install design requirements.
“At Powersoft, our vision has always been to lead by innovation and energy efficiency. With the introduction of the new Verso gateway, we extend an opportunity for our customers to further harness the remote management and monitoring capabilities provided by the MyUniverso Cloud platform, this grants service continuity and consequent peace of mind, which results in less trips to the sites and waste of time. Expanding cloud functionality to other Powersoft products ensures more intuitive and efficient remote management of installations, and ultimately reduces the impact on the carbon footprint of the industry.”
