LEADER Embraces
ASPEN Protocol
JPN:
LEADER
Electronics
Corporation will support the ASPEN
protocol in future products.
ASPEN (Adaptive Sample Picture
ENcapsulation) has been developed
as a collaborative effort to meet
the
real-world
requirements
of an IP-centric facility while
implementing proven MPEG2
transport streams.
This decision forms part of
LEADER's commitment to ensure
that its hardware and software
solutions conform to the IPbased data exchange formats
increasingly being used in the
broadcast television, radio and
professional audio markets.

Custom Consoles:
'Strong Demand'
GBR: Custom Consoles has
reported
"strong
demand"
fuelled by upgrades at some UK
universities. Projects completed in
recent months include Module-R
Lite desks for a Broadcast Zone
at the University of Sheffield's
Department of Journalism Studies
that includes a multi-camera HDTV
studio, voiceover booths and a
radio studio.
Module-R production desk, MDesks
and MediaPosts are being installed
in a TV studio gallery under
construction at another leading UK
Midlands university campus.

RUSHWORKS
Ships Tally System
USA: Texas-based RUSHWORKS
is shipping a camera tally system
that supports both Lumens and
1Beyond PTZ cameras.
The system supports up to eight
small LED tally indicators, with the
illuminated tally representing the
currently selected Program input
on RUSHWORKS' VDESK and REMO
integrated PTZ multi-camera TV
production systems.
An eight-port tally distribution box
connects to VDESK and REMO via
USB, and uses CAT5 cables.

Revving It With Artist
And RockNet
W

hen Red Bull's version of a
soapbox derby, La Course Red
Bull Boîte à Savon 2015, hit the streets
of Montreal, a compact Rec4Box OB
Factory van equipped with Riedel
Communications gear provided master
control capabilities supporting live
production and streaming of the event.
As a wild array of human-powered
gravity racers made their way down
the slopes of Square Victoria, Riedel's
fibre-based RockNet real-time audio
network and Artist digital matrix
intercom system gave the event
producers, Ocean Watch Productions
and Red Bull Media House, an efficient,
flexible solution for audio transport
and communications.
"The Rec4Box unit we used on the

Montreal soapbox derby
was a 26-foot truck that
did the work of a 53-footer,
and that's valuable for
live production in tight
urban environments," said
Sumesh Thakur, President
of
OceanWatch
Productions during the
event and now part of
Red Bull Media House.
"The Riedel gear
within
the
truck
provided great audio
quality, as well as the
ease of use and versatility we required
to bring off a successful event."

ChyronHego customers, Lyric PRO was
the quick and obvious consensus," said

and a second tournament in Virginia

Fast moving action scoring

Beach, Virginia, Casadonte Productions
expanded the solutions' capabilities
for the World Cup.
During each World Cup match, Lyric
PRO generated an on-screen score
bar. User-created macros in the Graffiti
character generator allowed for rapid
score bar updates to show up-to-thesecond data including scores
and "hit" status for the five
players on each opposing
team.
ChyronHego's SHOUT social
media editor was used to
display Twitter comments from
fans during the live paintball
action.
This capability will be
expanded with content from
Facebook and Instagram.
