Solid State Logic demonstrated an extensive collection of significant new features for its C100 HDS High End Broadcast Console at IBC. The addition of Production Automation integration, alongside its Dialogue Automix and 5.1 Upmix features and new low cost I/O, addresses growing trends in broadcast production, with enhanced remote control capability and tools that improve production efficiency.
These major upgrades to the C100 HDS Console and Routing & I/O platforms will be introduced with V3 software, as part of a collection of system improvements which add substantial new functionality. Additionally, V3 software introduces support for new low cost I/O, and expanded remote GPIO options. In response to growing client requirements for automated production environments, V3 extends remote control capability for the C100 with Pro-Bel protocol compatibility and full implementation of Ross Overdrive & Sony ELC Production Automation systems. V3 brings SSL’s acclaimed Dialogue Automix option to the C100 which transparently manages the physically challenging task of riding the faders in the fast paced environment of a live multi-microphone production. Dialogue Automix eliminates missed upcuts and maintains a smooth, balanced level of background ambience. For today’s HD production environments, V3 also expands the console’s already class leading surround production capabilities with the addition of an automatic stereo to surround 5.1 Up-mix option.
The introduction of V3 also adds compatibility with SSL’s Alpha-Link Live audio converter and Alpha-Link 8RMP 8 channel mic pre units, providing additional new low cost audio I/O options for C100. A new Ethernet connected Remote GPIO 1U rack unit provides up to 48 channels of GPIO capacity wherever you need it.
