Lawo Premieres New Mixing Consoles At BroadcastAsia

Lawo has premiered its new crystal radio mixing consoles at BroadcastAsia in Singapore. The new crystal has a re-designed user surface, available in 4- to 16-fader versions, providing clear operational layout.

The device features a new handrest and re-designed buttons. All pushbuttons are illuminated with RGB LEDs, enabling users to work with different colour schemes for different functions. New functions – like the integrated AutoMix and AutoGain – provide ease-of-use, especially to journalists and presenters in self-op situations.
The unit features power supply redundancy and optimised expansion slots for easy addition of I/O cards. Crystal consoles are optimised for stand-alone operation and networked environments. They provide the functionality found on a conventional mixer, as well as an integrated matrix of up to 288 I/Os.
These I/Os can be pre-packaged from a broad range of modules, including RAVENNA/AES67 Audio-over-IP, MADI, AES, and Mic/Line. crystal consoles are prepared for seamless integration with leading radio automation systems like ENCO, RCS, Dalet and Radiomax.
The consoles come with VisTool, which provides additional functionality and visualization beyond the limitations of hardware user interfaces, e.g. of DSP parameters, signal levels, and the snapshot database. The software is designed to be the central screen and interaction system for radio hosts, providing full control over all relevant functions of a crystal mixing console. It offers access to channel DSP processes, including EQ, dynamics, and bus routings, input parameters, and fader channel control.
