Built in 1967, the Congress Hall in Saarbrücken/Germany is home to a range of a broad variety of events such as conferences, trade fairs and conventions as well as shows and concerts of all kinds, some of which are also broadcast on radio and television by public broadcaster Saarländischer Rundfunk (SR).
Following the Hall’s renovation and reopening in September 2023, also the location’s control room of the SR was equipped with a modern audio infrastructure. With the installation of a Lawo mc²36 MkII all-in-one production mixing console and two Lawo AoIP stageboxes, the SR replaced the previous analog system with a console that meets the broadcaster’s quality standards in terms of performance, flexibility and efficiency.
The heart of the audio equipment is an mc²36 MkII production console with integrated processing. With its A__UHD core technology, it offers 256 processing channels available at both 48 and 96 kHz, which means that even large orchestral productions can be mixed. The all-in-one mixing console natively supports ST2110, AES67, RAVENNA and Ember+. With an I/O capacity of up to 864 channels and its local I/Os, the mc²36 MkII offers extensive connectivity. The two additional Lawo A__stage64 AoIP stageboxes support ST2110-30/31 and AES67 / RAVENNA and ensure the integration of audio signals.
