Commercial radio reaches 12.4 million weekly listeners in Australia
Home shopping TV is apparently a big thing in South Korea. And to be a competitor broadcasters have to keep up. Recently the Home & Shopping network needed a makeover and enlisted Lawo partner Dong Yang Digital Co. Ltd. to put a futureproof SMPTE ST 2110 digital face on its infrastructure.
Dong Yang Senior Engineer Myoung Ho Seo said, “The former baseband infrastructure had become a bottleneck for innovation. Our goal was to implement an IP-based environment that not only supports current production requirements but is also adaptable for future developments such as remote production, cloud workflows, and additional channels and formats.”
A release explained, “At the core of the audio infrastructure is a Lawo mc²56 MkIII audio production console, powered by a flexible A__UHD Core engine. This combination is tailored for high-performance broadcast applications and offers full support for SMPTE ST 2110-30/-31 and AES67 audio-over-IP standards. The mc²56 provides up to 1,024 DSP channels…”
In addition, it adds, “For backup operation Home & Shopping relies on a Lawo crystal console combined with a Power Core mixing engine. This compact and modular solution offers 96 DSP channels, full ST 2110 and AES67 compatibility, and redundant network and power options in a space-saving 1RU design. The consoles interface with a Lawo A__stage64 unit, which provides high-density, low-latency analog and digital I/O, including premium mic preamps and native AES67 connectivity.”
