France’s National Day on 14th July is celebrated with numerous events throughout the nation. For the 12th edition of the ‘Concert de Paris’, Lawo with its IP audio infrastructure including mc²96 and mc²56 consoles, once again met the live sound and broadcast requirements of the French public broadcasters and the Eurovision network, delivering impeccable audio quality to the large crowd on site and millions of listeners and viewers worldwide.
Talpa Network, a leading television and radio broadcaster in the Netherlands, has collaborated with Lawo to upgrade its broadcast infrastructure. The broadcaster, producing at two main locations in Hilversum and Amsterdam with distributed buildings, upgrades its technical facilities, including the implementation of video gateways to transport uncompressed signals between locations over its private network.
