Riedel Prepares For ISE

Riedel has announced the new products it will be bringing to this year's ISE show.

Tango TNG-200 Fully Networked Platform Supporting RAVENNA/AES67 and AVB
The Tango TNG-200 represents Riedel's first network-based platform supporting RAVENNA/AES67 and AVB standards. It features its own dedicated intercom application and can be turned into a flexible solution for a variety of communications scenarios.

The unit is equipped with a high-res, full-colour TFT display. Front-panel controls simplify the recall of presets and adjustment of audio levels. The TNG-200 features two integrated Riedel digital partylines, two RAVENNA/AES67- and AVB-compatible ports, two Ethernet ports, one option slot, and redundant power supplies. The dedicated intercom application, 'My First Riedel', turns the Tango platform into an intercom system that can be tailored accordingly. The asymmetric 40 x 80 matrix size allows for standard premium-quality stereo audio connections to panels.

RSP-2318 Smartpanel
The world's first control panel designed to serve as a powerful multifunctional user interface, the Riedel device boasts a feature set that includes three high-resolution, sunlight-readable, multitouch colour displays; premium-quality stereo audio; a multilingual character set; and 18 keys in just 1RU.

Riedel's first app for the RSP-2318 turns the Smartpanel into a smart intercom panel. RAVENNA/AES67 and AVB connectivity are standard, with AES3 over CAT/coax optional. Additional features include exchangeable headset connectors for mono or stereo applications, an integrated power supply, individual volume controls for each key, two USB ports, two Ethernet connectors, GPIO, audio I/O, an option slot, a removable gooseneck microphone, an SD card slot, and an HDMI output.

STX-200 Professional Broadcast-Grade Interface
The STX-200 professional broadcast-grade interface brings any Skype user worldwide into the professional broadcast environment. Licensed by Microsoft, the new Riedel product provides a single-box solution that enables producers to bring live contributions from both reporters and viewers into live programming – all while avoiding typical problems such as consumer PCs running common Skype clients, having to add scan and HDMI-to-SDI converters, or audio dropouts and menu pop-ups on the live feed.

Serving as more than a stand-alone solution, Riedel's STX-200 integrates Skype into the intercom solution. The 1RU box offers broadcast-quality HD-SDI and balanced XLR audio I/Os and is packaged with professional Microsoft Skype TX software. The solution's broad feature set includes remote management and monitoring of Skype calls.
