Studio Technologies Unveils Cutting-Edge Announcer Consoles: Revolutionizing Audio Broadcasting
The Future of Audio is Here! Studio Technologies is pushing the boundaries of audio technology with its latest announcer consoles, set to debut at ISE 2026. These consoles are not just an upgrade; they're a game-changer for the audio industry, especially in broadcasting, sports, and live events.
The new consoles, compatible with audio-over-IP (AoIP) protocols, come in three models: 5536, 5534, and 5532. Each model boasts advanced features, with the main difference being the number of talkback sender channels (6, 4, or 2 respectively). But here's where it gets exciting: these consoles offer a perfect blend of analogue and digital audio capabilities, ensuring exceptional performance and versatility.
Streamlined Setup, Endless Possibilities: Imagine setting up a complete broadcast position with just a single Ethernet connection, a microphone, and headphones. That's the power of these consoles! They require minimal connections, making deployment a breeze. And with support for AES67, SMPTE ST 2110, and Ravenna, they provide seamless audio-over-Ethernet networking.
Compact Yet Mighty: Encased in a rugged steel enclosure, these consoles are designed for tabletop use, but don't let their size fool you. They're small enough for tight spaces but powerful enough to handle various production scenarios. And with redundant stream performance following the ST 2022-7 standard, network reliability is never a concern.
"We wanted to create a product that offers both exceptional audio quality and a user-friendly experience," says Gordon Kapes, President of Studio Technologies. "The customizability and adaptability of these consoles are what set them apart." The consoles can be easily tailored to different user needs, ensuring they're ready for any situation.
Remote Control, Simplified: An independent Gigabit network interface allows support staff to access the consoles' management web pages and customize settings effortlessly. This remote control capability is a game-changer for day-to-day operations and specialized events.
Compact Design, Big Impact: The physical design is just as impressive. All three models share a compact enclosure, measuring 17cm wide, 8.1cm high, and 15.5cm deep. Firmware updates are a breeze, thanks to the USB port on the back.
Studio Technologies will showcase its ST 2110, Dante, and specialty audio products alongside these new consoles at ISE 2026. Visit their website to explore more innovations.
