When you combine Quu’s content toolset and Nautel’s software-based Air Chain, you get an easier and more affordable way to implement visual radio, especially on the car dash.
The Visual Radio Air Chain expands on Nautel’s software-based approach for HD Radio by integrating Quu and Rapid functionality into the transmitter, with integrations that tie in studio automation. The companies say the result is a seamless software-based air chain implementation that extends from content playout through visual metadata, audio processing, HD coding and synchronization to achieve Nautel’s promise of “Just Add Audio” simplicity.
The Nautel team celebrates, led by President/CEO Kevin Rodgers, rocking a sports jacket over his T-shirt.
