At the NAB Show Lawo will exhibit the new iteration of its crystal mixing console for broadcast and pro-audio applications, introduced late last year.
It is available in light and dark finishes and integrates with Lawo’s Power Core, a 1RU software-sefined DSP mixing engine.
“This integration ensures seamless compatibility with Ravenna/AES67, MADI, Dante, AES3 and analog signals, future-proofing radio and TV broadcast operations,” the company states.
Crystal has dual-mode operation capabilities, “Power Core” and “Controller.” It integrates via “Controller” mode with Lawo’s mc² systems or third-party DAW applications supporting the Open Sound Control protocol, providing enhanced flexibility and workflow efficiency.
The company also offers the diamond modular broadcast console for IP-native mixing in radio and TV applications. It is compliant with AES67/Ravenna standards and ST2110-30/-31 and ST2022-7, sharing workflow principles and design with the new crystal.
“Featuring new stand-alone VX and short desktop frames, diamond, powered by the Lawo Power Core Engine, offers expandable I/O, supporting AES67, MADI, analog, AES3 and Dante audio sources and destinations.” It is available in configurations from two to 60 physical faders. Fatures include fader-adjacent color displays and dual fader layers tp optimize task management.
Power Core is a versatile solution for high-density I/O, mixing, processing and routing in broadcast operations. It provides up to 512 Ravenna/AES6- and 256 MADI-native channels and supports customization for radio and TV applications. Power Core features up to 96 DSP channels and mixing features such as AutoGain, AutoMix and AGC Loudness Leveler.
In connection with the NAB Show, Lawo is releasing a new user interface and software for remote audio productions and radio software package 8.1, featuring remote sync support plus a new virtual interface for on-air radio applications.
