Technology has revolutionized the broadcasting industry, and keeping up with the latest advancements is crucial to providing the best service to clients. We recently conducted a refresher course for TBC radio studios’ IT and Technical team to update their skills and knowledge on the latest procedures and equipment.

One of the significant components of the training was the deployment of the AEQ Forum mixer and split fader modules. The AEQ Forum mixer is a state-of-the-art device that is designed to meet the requirements of modern-day broadcasting. It has a sleek design that is user-friendly, making it easy for sound engineers to operate.

The AEQ Forum mixer has an integrated audio-over-IP interface, which enables remote control and allows sound engineers to access the mixer from anywhere with an internet connection. This feature is particularly useful in live broadcasts where sound engineers can operate the mixer from different locations. The mixer also has a built-in automatic mix-minus, which eliminates the need for external mix-minus boxes.

The split fader modules are an essential part of the AEQ Forum mixer. They enable sound engineers to adjust the audio levels of individual sources, which is particularly useful in situations where there are multiple audio sources. The split fader modules also provide superior sound quality and are designed to eliminate any unwanted noise or interference.

The training also included the use of FORUM IP setup for configuration and the Dante controller for configuration of Dante AoIP cards, naming of audio channels, and audio routing. FORUM IP setup is a software tool that simplifies the configuration of the AEQ Forum mixer, making it easy for the team to customize the mixer to suit their specific needs. The Dante controller, on the other hand, is a software tool that enables sound engineers to control the audio routing of the mixer.

By staying up-to-date with the latest technologies and procedures, TBC radio studios can provide the best possible service to their clients. The deployment of the AEQ Forum mixer and split fader modules has greatly enhanced the quality of broadcasts and improved the overall performance of the trained team. With regular training and updating of skills, TBC radio studios can remain competitive and relevant in the ever-evolving broadcasting industry.

In conclusion, the refresher course for the IT and Technical team at TBC radio studios was a critical step in ensuring that the station is up-to-date with the latest technologies and procedures. The deployment of the AEQ Forum mixer and split fader modules has significantly improved the quality of broadcasts and made it easier for the team at TBC to operate. Regular training and updating of skills are vital in this rapidly changing industry, and TBC radio studios’ commitment to staying ahead of the curve is commendable.
