SoundSystem Live Redefines Real-Time Fan Audio with NanoLatency Benchmark at IBC 2025

Backbone Broadcast and SoundSystem Live to introduce the new NanoLatency Benchmark and the future of real-time fan audio for venues, broadcasters at IBC 2025.

BOSTON, MA, UNITED STATES, September 2, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- SoundSystem Live will make its international debut in Amsterdam at IBC 2025, introducing the NanoLatency Benchmark—a new performance target redefining real-time fan audio. Unlike legacy “Ultra-Low Latency” systems, which too often still mean delays of 1 to 10 seconds, the NanoLatency Benchmark sets the expectation at under 500 milliseconds—fast enough for live commentary to remain perfectly synchronized with the action on the field, court, or stage.

At IBC, SoundSystem Live will showcase the first platform engineered to meet the NanoLatency Benchmark at scale. Demonstrations will include ADA-compliant descriptive commentary and AI-powered multilingual translations, all streamed directly to fans’ smartphones without the need for new venue hardware.

“NanoLatency changes the conversation,” said Richard Cerny, CEO of Backbone Broadcast. “For too long, ‘Ultra-Low Latency’ has meant anything from half a second to five seconds. By setting a clear benchmark at sub-500ms, we’re giving venues, broadcasters, and fans a new way to measure what real-time audio should truly mean—today and in the future.”

SoundSystem Live goes beyond speed. Its architecture delivers studio-quality 48 kHz audio in a mere 30 kbps signal—a benchmark of efficiency unmatched in the industry. Where others demand higher bitrates, heavy infrastructure, or compromises in fidelity, SoundSystem Live proves that premium quality and massive scale can coexist. With bonded Wi-Fi and 5G pathways, it provides redundancy and reliability, scaling effortlessly from small arenas to 100,000-seat stadiums—without the cost or risk of hardware rollouts.

“Together, we’re proving that accessibility, inclusivity, and engagement can be achieved without barriers,” added Cerny. “From ADA channels to multilingual play-by-play, the NanoLatency Benchmark is about making every seat in the venue feel like a premium seat.”

SoundSystem Live will be demonstrated at IBC 2025 in Amsterdam, at the Technica Del Arte Booth #7.A16 in Hall 7, September 12–15
