HDMI® Technology is the foundation for the worldwide ecosystem of HDMI-connected devices; integrated with displays, set-top boxes, laptops, audio video receivers and other product types. Because of this global usage, manufacturers, resellers, integrators and consumers must be assured that their HDMI® products work seamlessly together and deliver the best possible performance by sourcing products from licensed HDMI Adopters or authorized resellers. For HDMI Cables, consumers can look for the official HDMI® Cable Certification Labels on packaging. Innovation continues with the latest HDMI 2.2 Specification that supports higher 96Gbps bandwidth and next-gen HDMI Fixed Rate Link technology to provide optimal audio and video for a wide range of device applications. Higher resolutions and refresh rates are supported, including up to 12K@120 and 16K@60. Additionally, more high-quality options are supported, including uncompressed full chroma formats such as 8K@60/4:4:4 and 4K@240/4:4:4 at 10-bit and 12-bit color.

The Stage Connect protocol is a central part of the Wing platform, transmitting up to 32 channels of audio along with MIDI and power over a single standard XLR or DMX cable. Behringer demonstrated the S88 stage box within this ecosystem, which integrates eight triad preamps, eight line outputs, and sixteen line-level outputs. The S88 connects to the console via Stage Connect, providing a scalable stage infrastructure for larger venues. Additional Midas Pro preamps can also be added using stage boxes connected via AES50.
For personal monitoring, Behringer offers the P24 personal monitoring mixer. This unit provides 24 channels of audio organized across 12 stereo faders. It is powered and receives audio directly through the Stage Connect protocol using a single XLR cable, simplifying stage cabling. A Stage Connect hub can be deployed to receive channels from the console and route them to multiple P24 units, distributing both audio and power throughout the monitoring setup.
Behringer also showcased the Flow4V field recorder and its expansion unit, the Flow4VIO. The Flow4V features four onboard dual-stage preamps with a 142 dB dynamic range and utilizes 32-bit float recording to prevent digital clipping, allowing gain trimming to be applied post-recording without signal loss. The Flow4VIO expansion adds eight additional preamps, a instrument input, and Bluetooth connectivity. Data is written directly to an internal SSD, and the device supports timecode jam sync for camera integration.
Founded in Willich, Germany, Behringer has historically focused on audio signal processors and mixers. The brand operates as part of the Music Tribe parent company, which also includes Midas, Lab Gruppen, Turbosound, and Tannoy. This group structure enables cross-brand collaboration, allowing Behringer to incorporate Midas Pro preamp designs into the Wing console and related audio products.
