Trinnov Unveils AltitudeCI: Scalable Audio Over IP for Any Audio Project

Experience scalable Audio-over-IP with Trinnov’s AltitudeCI, designed for immersive sound in projects of all sizes.

Elevating Immersive Audio to New Heights

If you’re a fan of high-fidelity sound that envelops you like a musical hug, Trinnov’s latest release, AltitudeCI Audio-over-IP processor, is a game-changer. Announced on August 26, 2025, this sleek, fully networked Audio-over-IP processor is tailor-made for the custom integration (CI) market—meaning it’s perfect for everything from sophisticated media rooms in luxury homes to ultra-premium private cinemas with DCI-grade specs.

“AltitudeCI makes Trinnov performance available to more projects than ever before,” says Arnaud Laborie, Trinnov Audio Co-Founder and CEO. “This is the one platform integrators can rely on for every immersive audio project, regardless of scale, infrastructure, or performance demands.”

What really sets AltitudeCI apart is its versatility. It’s the first in its class to support both Dante® and Ravenna®/AES67 natively. This means it plays nicely with consumer and pro audio setups alike. Whether you’re integrating Dolby Atmos® or working with DCI servers, AltitudeCI offers seamless, converter-free connectivity.

Modular Flexibility for Every Project Size

The beauty of AltitudeCI lies in its scalable approach. Trinnov knows different projects have different needs, so they’ve introduced a modular licensing model allowing integrators to specify channel counts in handy 2-channel increments. Starting configurations range from 8 to 32 channels, with a custom 64-channel powerhouse arriving in 2026. Plus, upgrades happen remotely via Trinnov’s extranet, meaning your system can grow without the usual headaches.

Exclusive Acoustics Technology That Transforms Spaces

AltitudeCI isn’t just about hardware; it’s a powerhouse of Trinnov’s signature software magic. Here’s what’s under the hood:

• Optimizer™: A 3D room and speaker correction system that fine-tunes phase, EQ, level, and delay with surgical precision.
• WaveForming™: A groundbreaking low-frequency tool that actively crushes room modes, delivering tight bass that feels consistent no matter where you sit.
• Remapping™: Ensures your immersive audio formats sound spot-on, even if your room isn’t acoustically perfect.

All this runs on a robust 64-bit floating-point processing platform, guaranteeing pristine audio fidelity and ready for whatever future updates Trinnov dreams up.

Compact Design Meets Installer-Friendly Features

Installers and integrators will appreciate the thoughtful engineering behind the AltitudeCI’s 2RU chassis. It packs eight analog outputs—perfect for active subwoofers or 7.1 surround setups—and supports HDMI with four inputs and two outputs to hook up with matrix-based video systems. Networking is no afterthought either: three independently configurable Ethernet ports, including two with SFP cages, mean your audio, control, and service traffic can all run smoothly and securely, even in complex setups.

Setting up the system? Trinnov’s redesigned user interface walks you through calibration with a guided workflow, making it approachable for newcomers yet preserving the deep, expert control seasoned pros demand.

The Perfect Pair: AltitudeCI & Amplitude16 Amplifier

To complete the AoIP ecosystem, Trinnov has introduced an optional Dante input board audio component for its acclaimed Amplitude16 multichannel amplifier. This means a fully digital signal flow—from processor to amplifier—without loss of audio quality.

The Amplitude16 boasts the same high-end DAC architecture as the Altitude line, ensuring the signal is preserved with jaw-dropping dynamic range. It’s also whisper-quiet compared to many commercial AoIP amplifiers, making it an ideal partner for audiophile-grade systems. Together, they fit neatly into just 5 rack units (5RU), combining performance and rack efficiency like a power duo.

See It in Action at CEDIA Expo 2025

Excited to get hands-on? Trinnov is showcasing AltitudeCI at the CEDIA Expo 2025 in Denver, Colorado, from September 4–6. Stop by the Trinnov High Performance Audio room (HPA208) for live demos, full system tours, and one-on-one partner chats.

Plus, they’re offering a free training session on September 3 at 2:00 PM MT—perfect for integrators and enthusiasts eager to dive deep. Seats are limited, so early registration is a must.

If you can’t wait until then, AltitudeCI is set to ship in Q4 2025, ready to bring immersive audio excellence to your next project.

Wrapping Up: The Future of Audio Integration

AltitudeCI is more than just a piece of gear—it’s a bold statement that premium immersive audio should be accessible and adaptable. Whether you’re crafting a cozy media room or a sprawling private cinema, Trinnov’s new processor scales with your vision, delivering a sound experience that’s both powerful and precise.

So, are you ready to take your sound system to the next level?
