Peavey Commercial Audio’s MediaMatrix division is showcasing the power of SCION, its next-generation DSP (Digital Signal Processor), audio-over-IP and control platform, at this week’s ISE 2026 in Barcelona, marking the first time the powerful new system will be demonstrated publicly in a fully operational, end-to-end workflow.
Visitors to the Peavey Commercial Audio stand (7D680) will experience SCION driving a complete, real-world audio system incorporating Crest Audio loudspeakers and the new CiP loudspeaker range, showcasing the platform’s processing power, routing flexibility and scalability for commercial, live and mission-critical environments.

SCION represents the latest evolution of MediaMatrix’s renowned networked-audio architecture, delivering dramatically expanded input-through-output routing and processing possibilities, native AES67 streaming via sNET, enhanced control logic and full backward compatibility with the company’s existing NION-based installations. Designed for airports, stadiums, hospitality, theme parks, convention centres and large enterprise estates, SCION brings a new performance tier for high-density audio and control applications.
At ISE, the system will be presented running a live, fully configured demonstration showcasing how SCION integrates seamlessly with Crest Audio and the new, PoE, CiP loudspeaker line to create efficient, scalable and networked audio systems. The demonstration will highlight SCION’s advanced routing and configuration tools in distributed, zoned and performance-critical applications.
“Quite simply, SCION is the most powerful and future-ready DSP platform we have ever developed, and ISE 2026 is the perfect stage to demonstrate what it can do,” said Shayne Thomas, general manager, Peavey Commercial Audio. “Showing SCION in combination with our new, power over ethernet, CiP loudspeakers highlights how easily integrators can design scalable, consistent and fully networked audio systems for modern projects.”
In addition to the SCION, CG and CiP demonstration, Peavey Commercial Audio’s CPL+ loudspeaker range will also be on display at the stand. CPL+, which are now fully compliant with EASE and CLF2 software for designing perfect audio coverage, is already shipping and will be shown alongside the CG line, while the new CiP loudspeakers are scheduled for shipping towards the end of Q1 2026.
