MAP Monitor Range (Monitor Audio Plus) range provides users with an intuitive yet flexible audio monitoring tool that allows facilities to future proof their workflows. Whether checking incoming feeds on an Outside Broadcast (OB), or creating a custom monitoring mix for production staff, the MPA family is ideal for hybrid workflows with established I/O – such as MADI, SDI, AES-3 and analog – while also embracing the industry’s rapid move to Audio over IP workflows with support for Dante and Ravenna.
The new products are available in two models: Solo offers the ability to listen to any channel, while Mix enables the user to create a simple monitoring mix. The shallow unit depth of 100mm makes them both ideal for the broadcast OB environment. The built-in web server enables all units to be configured, monitored and controlled remotely via an intuitive web interface.
PAM range is TSL's  award winning range of precision audio monitors. PAM supports stereo, multichannel, multi-language and surround sound environments via a sophisticated, intuitive control interface. Visitors to the TSL booth will be able to see the latest updates to the PAM-IP range. Designed to monitor audio directly from an IP stream without superfluous format conversion hardware, the new PAM-IP eases the transition to an all-IP workflow. It is ideally suited to meet the needs of any facility involved in the production and transmission of live productions such as sports, news, and live events.
The PAM-IP range can monitor video, audio and its associated metadata from either a traditional 3G-SDI connection or a S2022-6 IP stream. It is designed to work seamlessly in a hybrid environment where an SDI, AES and analog based infrastructure can be monitored alongside an IP-based infrastructure. With this array of connectivity options, the PAM-IP range offers more format flexibility than any monitoring device currently available.
Mark Davies, TSL's Director of Products and Technology said of these showcase products that, "As workflows migrate from analog to MADI, or from MADI to Audio over IP, most broadcasters find themselves having to go through a transitional period where many standards may be in use. To help with the transition, our solutions are specifically designed to facilitate the move to IP at a pace that suits the individual needs of customers. Whether you work in live production, a large broadcast facility, in Outside Broadcast, or a live studio environment, TSL Products delivers a range of solutions that allow you to focus on making great content."
