Audio Booth # A113


Audio Booth #A 113
  • The Audio Booth will have a 24 Ch x 6 x 2 bus audio mixing console. The console will be split up into three sections. The first eight inputs will be mono inputs for microphones and the second eight will be stereo inputs for video tape inputs, or signals that come through the router. The last section of eight will be stereo inputs for other equipment such as CD/cart, telephone hybrid, CD player, and cassette recorder. The console will be able to handle analog as well as AES/EBU
  • Digital audio signals. All microphone signals will be routed through the patch bays located in the Audio Booth. The signals used most regularly will normal through to the console. All console outputs will go through the patch bays to audio distribution amplifiers and to the router for distribution to various video machines, transmission and tie lines.
  • Audio processing equipment will be provided to compress and limit selected audio signals so that transient peaks are controlled and output levels are within an acceptable range. In case of problem audio such as sibilance, noise, tonal quality, etc., devices will be installed to make the necessary corrections.
  • This room also will have digital processing capabilities such as reverb, echo, delay, chorusing, harmonizing, room simulation, etc provided by a multi-processor.
  • The Audio Booth nearfield monitor loudspeakers will be able to accurately reproduce the original audio source so that the engineer can properly adjust the gain, equalize, manipulate, mix the signal and then send the audio signal to the master outputs for distribution.
  • A telephone hybrid system for placing calls live on the air will be located in a rack to one side of the main audio mixing console in the audio booth aJong with the cart machines, cassette player, etc.
  • Camera Cable Patching
  • To ensure flexibility between the video engineering bay and the studio, there will be a camera patch panel located inside a rack in the TCC.
