I am new to this group, but it seems to be the proper forum for my needs. I am a studio installer specializing in studios for Voice Over artists. Currently, the VO industry of promos relies almost exclusively on ISDN technology to transceive Mpeg codec data, using devices such as the Telos Zephyr. This has been the standard for almost ten years now, and everyone has been happy with the sound quality and reliability. HOWEVER, as I setup more new studios, getting ISDN service installed is becoming more and more difficult. Verizon has "grandfathered' current ISDN subscribers but will no longer setup new ISDN service in some areas. There is technology using IP available, but the idea of having to go through several switches reduces reliability considerably, especially with the number of users growing so rapidly. Is there a chance that there might be and ISDN 2.0 in development? Or is there another existing technology that could considered as reliable as ISDN?
Thanks everyone...
