The SoundField products have been installed in T16, a recently completed HD OB vehicle owned by Telegenic. “We’ve been transmitting HD pictures for Rugby Union for several years, but without 5.1 surround to match,” explained Sky’s Operations Manager, Keith Lane. “We wanted to upgrade the experience we were offering Sky Sports Rugby Union fans, and the SoundField system was the obvious choice, as it’s doing such a fine job on all our other HD sports coverage.” www.soundfield.com Tonmeister, Ludwigsburg, Germany November 19-21 Integrated Systems China Hong Kong November 19-21 Inter Bee 2008 Makahari, Messe, Tokyo January 5-7 ALMA Winter Symposium Las Vegas, USA January 8-11 International CES Las Vegas, USA January 15-18 NAMM 2009 Anaheim, CA January 18-21 CALIFORNIA StreamGuys StreamGuys, a streaming media and content delivery provider, has enabled Whisperings, an Internet Radio broadcast, to become entirely listener supported by employing their RevenueStream service. “We hit a financial brick wall,” explained David Nevue, Founder of Whisperings. “The effort to solve that problem led us to StreamGuys… With their help, we have been able to serve five times as many listeners while drastically reducing our operating costs.” www.streamguys.com ICELAND HHB Icelandic journalist Guòmundur Gunnarsson interviewed more than 300 Icelandic residents this year for the Icelandic Broadcasting show ‘Flækingur’; a daily show that translates into English as ‘Vagabond’. The project required Gunnarsson to interview in all environments; from wading in a river to standing on top of a mountain. “We decided to rely entirely on the HHB FlashMic for recording every interview,” Gunnarsson reported. “It turned out to be extremely reliable and easy to use, and the quality of the recordings amazed me – quality that can best be described as ‘what you hear is what you get’.” www.hhb.co.uk MIDEM 2009 Cannes, France February 2-5 CSTB 2009 Moscow, Russia February 4-7 AFIAL Convention 09 Madrid, Spain February 11-13 35th AES Conference London, UK 14 AUDIO MEDIA NOVEMBER 2008 http://www.audiomedia.com http://www.soundfield.com http://www.streamguys.com http://www.hhb.co.uk
