During NAB, Lawo will demonstrate RAVENNA Audio over IP technology implementations in its latest products. Here, show attendees will be introduced to the RAVENNA HD Core Card, RAVENNA DALLIS Master Card, and the 8-channel RAVENNA I/O modules.
NAB will also serve as the world-wide launch of Lawo’s SDI-Dock, the perfect bridging tool between the worlds of audio and video. SDI-Dock incorporates 8 high quality embedders and de-embedders plus 128 audio channels connected through MADI. The product is completed with powerful video processing functions, including color correction, frame sync, and thumbnailing.
Lawo will also showcase its latest software developments. The company will introduce two software solutions: JADE and Lawo’s Multitrack Editor for simplified and more efficient workflow at the editor's workplace. Equally notable, the mc²66 MKII broadcast console will be presented with the new V4.16 software. A prominent feature of this release is the doubling of the channel count so that a full mc² system can offer up to 888 DSP channels. Attendees will also want to catch Lawo’s 3D audio mixing and monitoring integration using the mc²66 MKII. Lawo’s 3D audio mixing and monitoring integration will be a most interesting technology showcase for future innovation in sound. For hands-on experience, the compact mc²56 mixing system will also be set up at the Lawo booth.
In Las Vegas, Lawo will be presenting sapphire, the newest member of the on-air radio and TV broadcast console family for the first time with Visual Extension. This system offers many desirable functions, e.g. an outstanding graphical visualization of system functions, advanced user management in combination with proven Lawo technology in an innovative new design. The crystal console, designed for on-air radio broadcast and edit suite applications, will be shown in its 12-fader version.
Lawo will also have the all-new Nova29 compact 16-port MADI router on display. The Nova29 delivers transparent signal routing for 1024 x 1024 signals, an integral intercom function, as well as many easy-to-maintain features.
