Netherlands-based Cinevideogroup
caused a stir recently with the acquisition of two new RTS®-equipped
high-definition OB vehicles.
Cinevideogroup's new OBV's (Outside Broadcast Vans), equipped
with high-end components including a RTS® ADAM matrix
intercom, are widely used in mobile productions throughout
Europe.
Some recent productions include the games of the Spanish first
division clubs Real Madrid, FC Barcelona and FC Valencia for
the American Rainbow Sports Network. The trucks have also
been used to record a show of the Dutch Starkomikers Sjaak
Bral, a Berlin concert by The Cure and a Simply Red concert
in Sicily.
The trucks are booked solid through the rest of 2008. Upcoming
productions include matches of the Primera Liga, and concerts
by Mariah Carey and Iron Maiden. To ensure optimal communication
during every production, Cinevideogroup entrusted RTS®.
One of the broadcast vans is equipped with a comprehensive
128-port ADAM matrix, the other features a Cronus®. Both
broadcast vans include KP-32 Classic and KP-12 keypanels.
The high-end ADAM is ideal for broadcast production. It supports
8 to 1000+ users per system; 272 ports are possible in just
a 7RU frame. Utilizing a Time Division Multiplex (TDM) technique,
the ADAM grows linearly as users are added; the system comes
standard with newly-redesigned redundant high current power
supplies, and the new redundant Ethernet master controllers,
MCII-e, allowing for automatic changeover in the event of
failure.
The MCII-E master controller allows Ethernet connectivity
between the ADAM intercom and a PC running AZedit programming
software. It can support 32 simultaneous AZedit sessions via
Ethernet and 3 sessions via serial. ADAM is available with
the widest variety of interface cards in the industry, which
includes the AIO-16, AES-3, and RVON-16 VoIP interfaces. It
also has a wide variety of cabling options, including RJ-11s,
DB-9s, jack fields, and many others.
