TRIBIT launches the XSound Plus 2 Portable Bluetooth Speaker in the UK and US markets.

TRIBIT, a global brand which aims to make high-quality audio accessible to all, today announces the launch of its XSound Plus 2 Portable Bluetooth Speaker, an upgraded version of the highly rated MaxSound Plus. The improvements include 6W’s more power, 4 hours more playtime, 5.3 Bluetooth, the introduction of Party Mode and full compatibility with the TRIBIT App which allows for customisation to suit individual preferences. The TRIBIT XSound Plus 2 Portable Bluetooth Speaker is available from Tribit US and Amazon US for an RRP of $69.99 and Tribit UK for an RRP of £57 and Amazon UK for £64.99, currently £10 off with voucher.

30W Twilight sound:

Equipped with neodymium full-range drivers, capable of producing a wider frequency response compared to traditional magnets, this Bluetooth speaker ensures crisp clarity to get the best out of every audio experience. The advanced DSP and amplifiers, featuring the XBass patented algorithm, elevate listening to new heights wirelessly.

Music streaming day and night:

Many would not expect much playtime from such a compact and light audio device but the XSound Plus 2 is guaranteed to be a pleasant surprise. Powered by RunStretch technology it packs in an incredible 24 hours of playtime (when the XBass feature is not in use) making it ideal for travel or long car rides so the music never needs to stop, day or night. It can easily be popped into a rucksack weighing in at only 580gs and its compact size (198.5mm*66.5mm*70mm) means it takes up minimal space making it ideal to take along on hikes, whilst camping and to keep the music pumping on holiday. The speaker takes around 4 hours to recharge fully and with its cutting-edge Outdoor Audio Bluetooth 5.3 connectivity and wireless range of up to 150ft, there’s no need to worry about signal loss or dropouts. The sleek yet robust design, waterproof rating of IPX7 and Bluetooth 5.3 make it the perfect companion for outdoor adventure, for pool parties and trips to the beach.

Customisable:

A common complaint can often be based on personal preferences, some like more bass, some less. Some more treble, some less. Via the TRIBIT App, the sound can be fully customised to match these individual preferences and listening environments. Users can choose to switch between Audiobook, MaxSound traditional, Jazz, Rock, and XBass (the default) or disable these pre-sets entirely as preferred. A customised EQ curve with nine bands that range from 80Hz to 13kHz can also be created.

One-click pairing:

For users who enjoy a truly big immersive sound, TRIBIT has got it covered! Double up the audio experience by pairing two XSound Plus 2 speakers or seamlessly pair with the StormBox Flow wireless speaker for a booming sound. Party mode can also be activated to elevate any gathering, boost the mood at parties, and enjoy the music brought by double the volume. It’s party time!

Shure Empowers Content Creators With Next-level Recording and Streaming Equipment: Introducing The New MV7+ Microphone

Today, Shure announced the evolution of its hybrid XLR/USB dynamic microphone with the launch of the MV7+ Podcast Microphone. This marks a significant step forward from its predecessor, the award-winning MV7 Podcast Microphone, by integrating a sleeker design and software upgrades built to meet and exceed the needs of modern creators, offering even better audio quality with ease of use.

Engineered for discerning streamers, podcasters, and musicians, the MV7+ is the ideal choice for those seeking to capture broadcast-quality audio in even the most challenging of spaces. With Shure’s cutting-edge Voice Isolation Technology, the focus lies on the user’s voice, avoiding annoying background noises and ensuring outstanding audio for every recording and streaming session. It also includes a new, innovative onboard Digital Signal Processing (DSP) engine which powers a suite of advanced features, like an improved Auto Level Mode, a Digital Popper StopperTM for enhanced plosive control, Real-time Denoiser, and Adjustable Reverb. Thanks to its unique full-touch LED live meter display and numerous customisation options, the MV7+ sets a new standard in sound quality and personalisation while diving into a vibrant world of colour.

To elevate the user experience to the next level, the MV7+ podcast microphone integrates with the free, new MOTIV Mix™ Desktop app, Shure’s latest MOTIV software interface. MOTIV Mix provides users with the ability to configure all aspects of the MV7+. The software also offers multi-track recording and routing to support users with a greater control of their live streaming and recordings. With MV7+ and MOTIV Mix, it’s easier than ever to sound authentic, freeing up creators to let their imagination shine brightly.

“Modern content creators and streamers are constantly searching for new ways to customise their set up and sound to set themselves above the pack,” said Sean Sullivan, Associate Director of Global Product Management at Shure. “The MV7+ is our answer to this challenge. It builds off the legacy of the MV7 and delivers broadcast-quality audio in any setting while empowering creators with intuitive customisation and control. Through our latest DSP innovations and the new MOTIV Mix desktop app integration, the MV7+ is set to redefine excellence in audio recording for every session.”

Hybrid XLR and USB-C outputs: The MV7+ integrates into any setup as it provides hybrid USB-C and XLR output and connects seamlessly with your laptop or phone (iOS and Android), offering unparalleled flexibility and ease of use.

MOTIV Mix™ Desktop App:

Unlock the full potential of the MV7+ microphone through the MOTIV Mix software interface. This platform allows users to customise the LED panel, access up to five multi-track recording and routing channels, and fine-tune settings like sound signature, gain, and more.

ServiceNow opens new central Dublin office as growth in Ireland continues

ServiceNow (NYSE: NOW), the leading digital workflow company making the world work better for everyone, today officially opened the doors to its new offices with four floors in 60 Dawson Street in Dublin city centre. The relocation of the company’s Irish headquarters will further support its growing business and employee base in the region.

The expansion of ServiceNow’s Irish real estate footprint comes after the company announced its intention to create a further 400 new roles in June last year, effectively doubling its workforce in Ireland in the coming years. With half of those jobs already filled, the business is ahead of schedule in achieving that target.

“We welcome ServiceNow’s expanding presence in Ireland,” said Neale Richmond TD, Minister of State at the Department of Enterprise, Trade and Employment “The move represents not only a boost to our robust tech sector but also a growing confidence in our local economy and the outstanding talent available. We look forward to a renewed promise of innovation, collaboration and shared prosperity.”

The new space will house over 37 different global and regional teams across a range of core functions, including engineering, sales, global talent, digital technology, finance and legal.

“Our move to a larger property is a result of our continued growth as the platform company of choice for digital business,” said Mark Cockerill, Senior Vice President, Legal at ServiceNow. “Several regional and global roles that support our global growth are increasingly being based in Ireland. These improved facilities will enhance the employee experience for our growing and diverse team and reflective of our continued investment in our people.”

Executive Director of IDA Ireland Mary Buckley said “As ServiceNow opens its new LEED Gold office in Dublin, it highlights Ireland’s position as a premier destination for innovative companies seeking to expand their presence in Europe.. This reinforces Ireland’s standing as a dynamic, forward thinking economy and is testament to the availability of talent.”

The state-of-the-art offices, occupy almost 8,360 square metres across the top four floors of the prestigious premises. In addition to employee workspace, the offices feature dedicated training, collaboration and team-building spaces, as well as yoga and mothering rooms, meeting the needs of a modern and inclusive workspace. With a focus on quality, sustainability and wellbeing, the smart infrastructure and open-air terraces are designed to enable employees to thrive.

“ServiceNow has been present in Ireland since 2018 and it has been a key part of our rapid growth across both in EMEA and globally, as corporations and governments across the world, turn to the power of our platform to fulfil their digital needs and improve their speed and efficiency,” added Cockerill.

In the last five years, ServiceNow has grown from a handful of employees in Ireland to more than 600. The bolstered Irish office space is also testament to ServiceNow’s strong employer brand, as recognised by Great Place to Work, firmly cementing its values of teamwork, belonging and customer-centricity in its company culture.

BKP is a world-class production company who specialise in full service audio production, music composition, sonic branding, film and digital production and entertainment.

While streaming accounted for the vast majority of the market, with those revenues accounting for a 95.5% share, this represents the growing importance of the region for the global music business.

We are thrilled that together with BKP, we will empower even more composers, artists, rights holders and creative agencies.

We look forward to working with BKP Group and the opportunities that our partnership can bring.”

Business Goals

Josh, from Chippenham, has been working in the industry since leaving university and has completed a successful probation period.

Dyson makes cleaning more efficient with its new AR smart tech cleaning tool

Cleaning can be a thankless task. As you head towards the Spring Clean finish line, you may think you can’t go wrong, yet amid navigating chair legs and under furniture, moving between rooms and sidestepping our furry friends, it’s easy to inadvertently miss areas, or repeatedly vacuum the same spot, reducing efficacy and wasting time.

Taking inspiration from the systematic cleaning approach of the Dyson 360 Vis Nav robotic vacuum cleaner, the Dyson CleanTrace helps users to clean more methodically by providing real-time AR visualisations of where they have cleaned and the spots they have missed, removing the guesswork and solving the have-I-cleaned-there-yet quandary.

The Dyson CleanTrace brings together a combination of technologies for the most powerful, intelligent and thorough clean. LiDAR technology from a user’s phone allows the Dyson CleanTrace to map your room and overlays cleaning pathways using AR, showing you where you have cleaned and what you have missed. When you’ve finished cleaning, you can scan the room with your phone to identify gaps, so you never miss a spot. The existing technology within the Dyson Gen5detect then acoustically senses and counts the dust particles, showing proof of a deep clean.

“We realised that we could all learn a thing or two from the methodical cleaning approach of our robot vacuums. Unlike most humans doing the cleaning, Dyson robots know where they are in the room, where they have been, and where they have yet to go. With the Dyson CleanTrace™, we add this extra layer of cleaning intelligence to the Gen5detect vacuum. It gives you the ability to see where you have and haven’t cleaned, which, combined with our on-board particle sensing technology, gives proof that the floor is truly clean.” Charlie Park – VP of Engineering, Dyson Home

Inefficient cleaners

Dyson engineers are obsessive about engineering ways to improve how we clean. In addition to extensive in-lab testing, our engineers study human behaviours and cleaning habits, as well as frustrations, in the real world. They have spent hundreds of hours observing home cleaning around the world – studying how long each cleaning session lasts, effectiveness of cleaning, different vacuuming angles and patterns, even how many times a user puts down a machine during a session, all of which inform continuous innovation in floor care technology.

Research shows that consumers regularly overestimate the amount of time they clean – data shows that around 80% of cleaning sessions last less than 10 minutes, yet people claim they vacuum for an average of 24 minutes per session. Moreover, consumers are haphazard and inefficient – regularly covering the same areas multiple times and missing other spots altogether, demonstrating the need for the Dyson CleanTrace.

The Dyson CleanTrace will be available from June 2024.

Availability: The Dyson CleanTrace will be available globally from June, from Dyson.co.uk and Dyson Demo stores only.

Pricing: To be confirmed.

Weight: The Dyson CleanTrace phone clamp weighs 104g

App access: Owners will be able to open the Dyson CleanTrace software via the MyDyson app. It requires registering a Dyson Gen5detect vacuum cleaner for the module to become visible on the app home screen.

Dyson Gen5detect cordless vacuum cleaner: The most powerful HEPA cordless vacuum is powered by the new Dyson Gen5 Hyperdymium motor to deliver up to 280AW of suction power. It features our Fluffy Optic™ cleaner head that reveals twice the amount of invisible dust and traps 99.99% of particles down to 0.1 microns, the size of viruses. A piezo sensor counts and sizes particles 15,000 times per second – automatically increasing power when needed and showing proof of a deep clean

Dyson 360 Vis Nav robot vacuum: The most powerful robot vacuum with six times the suction of any other, armed with 360-degree vision and pioneering technology to know where it has been, see where to clean, detect walls to clean right to the edge, and is intelligent enough to respond to dust sensed in the home, ramping up suction power when needed
