On show will be an IP-based, 48-fader mc²56 audio production console
Germany - Lawo’s exhibition setup at this year’s Prolight + Sound booth will focus on IP-based products and solutions for theatre and live applications. In a hands-on environment, visitors can experience Lawo mc²audio consoles and Lawo IP routing systems as well as Lawo’s video processing units and audio-over-IP interfaces, including A - stage, the new members of the A-line family of WAN-capable stageboxes.
On show in Frankfurt will be an IP-based, 48-fader mc²56 audio production console of the third generation. This mixing system is optimized for today’s IP-video production environment, designed from the ground up for networking in complex production infrastructures, with full native support for SMPTE 2110, AES67 / RAVENNA, Dante and MADI audio streams.
Also on display in Frankfurt will be Lawo’s mc²36 all-in-one live mixing desk in a 24-fader frame, with a comprehensive feature set covering broadcast, theatre, houses of worship, live and installed-sound applications. A powerful DSP micro-core with an internal 512x512 port audio matrix and integrated I/O make it suited for permanent installations where space is at a premium. The mc²36 integrates seamlessly into IP infrastructures, thanks to native AES67 / RAVENNA networking technology.
Another highlight in Frankfurt will be Lawo’s VSM Control and Monitoring system, which is in operation in many broadcast, live and install environments, from cruise ships (Quantum class of shipping company Royal Caribbean) to auditoriums and lecture halls. VSM is a brand-agnostic control system that brings all of the devices in a facility into a single, unified control environment.
