Comrex has announced the launch a pair of additions to its Gagl cloud-based service that enables users to send and receive audio through common web browsers while connecting to a Comrex hardware IP audio codec.
Gagle Solo is a free reduced-feature version of Gagl Standard to allow one participant on
a browser to connect to the studio codec.
Hotline is an add-on to Gagl Standard that allows one guest or contributor to connect by dialing a 10-digit phone number provided with each subscription, while up to four other users can continue using the browser based connection. Comrex says, “if the Hotline caller uses an AT&T, T-Mobile or Verizon cell phone, these calls will sound dramatically improved, with much higher fidelity than a normal phone call. The caller’s HD Voice audio will be presented within the Gagl interface for use on-air. Alternatively, Gagl can be configured to pass Hotline calls directly to your codec for unattended operation.” Gagl + Hotline is available in the United States only for $50 per month or $500 per year.
Comrex first introduced both services at NAB Show 2024. The Gagl Standard service launched in 2023 as an audio subscription service that works in conjunction
with Comrex IP audio codecs such as ACCESS or BRIC-Link.
