New MPA1-MIX-NET-V-R monitoring solution provides peace of mind and easy transition to IP workflows.
At IBC 2023, TSL is showcasing its new MPA1-MIX-NET-V-R, a fully redundant 1U audio confidence monitor and mixer with 16 instantly recallable independent mixes that eases the transition to IP. TSL engineered the MPA1-MIX-NET-V-R in accordance with key industry standards, SMPTE ST 2022-7, ensuring fully optimised network topologies that reduce customer risk and network complexity without limiting operational agility.
A leader in audio monitoring, TSL’s latest MPA1-MIX-NET innovation safeguards against disruptions and system failures, empowering broadcasters to deliver top-tier, uninterrupted broadcasting experiences whether it's a high-stakes sporting event, live concert, or once-in-a-lifetime global event.
The New MPA1-MIX-Net-V-R
Designed to ease the transition towards IP media transport, the MPA1-MIX-NET-V-R is ideal for ST 2110 trucks and installations. Two 1G AoIP connections provide 64 channels of input, with a further 64 available via an optional MADI SFP. Support for in-band NMOS is built-in for integration with TSL control and leading third-party systems.
User interfaces are critical in high-pressure production environments, so the MPA1-MIX-NET’s design is informed by users like global production experts NEP. One example is the “V”-shaped layout of the controls for accurate fingertip navigation in low-light environments. Additionally, SNMP integration allows remote configuration changes.
Key Feature/Benefit Highlights:
- 64 channels and an optional MADI input provide a further 64 channels, with an intuitive interface and easy-to-use controls.
- A simple and intuitive way to monitor multiple audio sources by using it's 8 dedicated rotary controls to quickly configure and create the required monitoring mix
- Provides full integration with today's Broadcast IP networks allowing operators to easily access any audio sources for monitoring.
- Comes complete with a comprehensive webpage and SNMP support, allowing remote configuration and control.
