Whether the application is an automation controlled web channel, through to the largest of sports productions, the new standard processing configuration at the heart of the C100 HD PLUS console delivers more processing than ever before in an SSL broadcast console. SSL's third generation digital broadcast console is the most technically refined system available anywhere in the world.

The centre section penthouse of the C100 HD PLUS features a new 10-inch screen, which can be used to display any HDMI video source and enables the user to select from a wide range of metering options. The console can be specified with SSL's own LMS-16 Loudness Monitoring system to provide comprehensive, highly configurable 16 x 5.1-channel Loudness and True Peak monitoring. The control surface has also been re-designed to facilitate clearer channel identification in a wider range of lighting conditions.

With frame sizes from 16 to 48 faders, the self-contained fanless console can be built into vans for ENG operations, specified for Network scale sports productions or is ideal for all-round production demands in mid-scale broadcast facilities. The simple, button-driven surface is easy for new operators while a new feature set provides all the features a broadcaster needs for the most sophisticated production. New Plus' features provide the established and proven C10 platform with a new level of performance, making it a great investment for facilities with plans to grow. Integrated into the C10 HD PLUS, the Blackrock Processor card offers 216 audio paths, with 160 channels of 6 Band EQ, and 188 channels of Dynamics with 512 channels of integrated MADI I/O. The new C10 HD PLUS also features a redesigned fader panel colour scheme.

The standard configuration of both consoles offers the complete portfolio of SSL's powerful Production Assistant applications, which help streamline broadcast production by automating and integrating key production tasks. Dialogue Automix;' 5.1 Upmix;' Production Automation Interfacing;' DAW Control' and SSL's unique integrated audio spot playout system, C-Play' are all standard features at the heart of the most powerful production platform.

System options include a scalable 48 port MADI router for multiple console installations and large-scale I/O support with external control from VSM and other third party controllers, TCP/IP-based Networked audio via the SSL MADI Bridge and LMS-16 multi-stream Loudness Metering.

SSL leads the way with forward thinking audio routing for broadcast production

Solid State Logic is demonstrating how IP Audio Networking can deliver significant feature benefits and cost optimisation in audio routing systems for broadcast production at the NAB 2014 Show (Booth C2317). The insightful demonstration serves as a launch for SSL's new Network I/O' broadcast audio interface range and shows how the new product line and SSL digital broadcast consoles can be elegantly interfaced with devices from more than 75 different manufacturers using a Dante IP Audio Network. The new SSL Network I/O range consists of MADI-Bridge,' providing 64 bidirectional channels of fully redundant MADI-to-network bridging with front panel confidence headphone monitoring; SDI,' bridging eight 3G-SDI embedders and eight de-embedders to the network or MADI with internal per channel routing; and Stagebox,' which provides eight channels of mic/line I/O (using SSL's renowned SuperAnalogue mic pres) with redundant network connectivity. The demonstration includes four SSL consoles (2 x C10, C100 and Live) networked with third-party devices from Shure and Sound Devices and also features SSL's LMS-16' Loudness Monitoring system connected directly to the network. With Dante committed to conform with AVB standards and with AES67, the SSL Network I/O range is ready for future networked audio developments.

The case for IP Audio Networking and Dante for broadcast

Audinate's Dante technology is well established in professional audio for live production and installation sectors, with more than 200 devices from over 75 different manufacturers already available. The demonstration at NAB sets out a very strong case for why Dante is the right choice for forward-thinking audio routing for broadcast production applications.

Dante uses IP networking. The backbone of IT infrastructures worldwide, IP networking is a lower cost technology that benefits from developments and cost competition in much larger industries than broadcasting. Cat 5, Cat 6, fibre cabling and off-the-shelf network
