The BR broadcasting service commissioned SALZBRENNER STAGETEC MEDIAGROUP to carry out the expansion of the entire audio equipment on their OB Trucks. A decisive factor had been the successful cooperation in 2002 when the audio control room of the Herkulessaal in Munich was completely modernized. The audio routing on the radio and TV OB Trucks is based on a NEXUS system with almost 800 inputs and outputs that has no extra patchbays.
The only exception to this is a specialty of the BR: an external patchbay installed in the rear part of the Truck. The audio network is complemented by two portable NEXUS Base Devices. This setup can still be completed with two more Base Devices or a TrueMatch RMC unit. In this case, 116 microphone inputs are available. The OMUX optical multiplexer is used for switching between the various external optical lines.
The intercom routing on the radio OB Truck is achieved, too, using the NEXUS. For this purpose, customized subscriber units are connected to the audio router via XRI relay interface boards.
