TW, a leading vendor of visual
audio meters and monitoring
devices for professional broadcast,
production,
post-production
and
quality control, is once again exhibiting
at the Avid Partner Pavilion at AES NY
2017.
One of the highlights of this
year's display will be a preview of
the company's latest version of its
Continuous Loudness Control (CLC)
software, which enables users to
operate live or batch mode loudness
processing with up to 24 channels.
All surround formats defined in the

ITU 1770-4 standard are
supported. The Institut für
Rundfunktechnik,
GmbH
(IRT) (Institute for Broadcast
Technology, Ltd.), partnered
with RTW to further improve
its CLC algorithm for even
better, faster processing.
This updated version of the CLC will be
available for customers to download in
the coming months.
"We are excited to bring RTW's
continuously evolving loudness control
software to the AES convention,"
says Andreas Tweitmann, CEO,
RTW. "From our updated CLC
software, to the exciting new
partnership with Nixer and our
vast product portfolio, RTW
provides ideal solutions for the
audio engineering customer.
We always look forward to

IMT And Vislink Display
Newsnet ENG Solution
X

G Technology's Vislink and IMT
business units will showcase its
award-winning newsnet solution, a
technological ecosystem established
for ENG use, at NAB NY 2017.
Vislink leveraged its history in
the wireless capture, delivery and
management of high-quality live
video to develop newsnet as a way of
completely transforming traditional
ENG workflows. It incorporates a
high-speed and reliable bi-directional
IP network that utilises the exclusive
and highly coveted 2GHz BAS-licensed
spectrum, thereby increasing the

number of live ENG transmissions and
workflows that can be performed from
the field.
The newsnet system consists of one
or more mobile high-speed IP network
nodes that easily connect with a base
station, typically located at existing
ENG receive sites. Each mobile node
not only offers high-quality video
transmission capability, but also a
private and reliable ingress point
for other IP-centric edge devices -
allowing users to control their own
private high-speed IP licensed wireless
network and ensuring that their

content and intellectual property are
never at risk.
With an intuitive user interface
that is accessible to many skill levels,
newsnet allows multiple access points
to operate simultaneously on the same
BAS channel, all while enabling a high
bandwidth IP connection with the
newsroom computer system (NRCS).
This IP connection can further be
leveraged to enhance news production
values through high-speed file
sharing, as well as enabling all other
IP-centric tools in remote locations,
phone systems, Closed Captioning,

automation, and remote asset
management. Newsnet is compatible
with MOS protocol-based news
automation systems such as Ross,
Octopus, Dalet and Video Inception.
The newsnet solution won the
2017 Society of Broadcast Engineers
(SBE) Technology Award and John
Payne was recognised by the SBE
for spearheading the launch of this
groundbreaking ENG system.
The
SBE
Technology
Award
recognises an SBE member who has
provided the industry with the best
new or innovative technology or idea
to further the science of broadcast
engineering and to assist the
broadcast engineer.
"It is an honour to be recognised by
the Society of Broadcast Engineers for
the launch of our newsnet system,"
says Payne. "We will continue to
provide
industry
professionals
with dependable and high-quality
transmissions that make their jobs
easier and produce great results."
Other broadcast products being
presented include the HCAM HEVC
4K
UHD
camera
transmitter,
IMTDragonFly,
microLite
and
INCAM-G transmitters, as well as the
UltraReceiver and DR3 receivers.
