Digital tie lines
Posted: Mon Jun 25, 2012 10:40 pm
Hello,
I tried to search for this but couldn't not find a comprehensible answer. The school that I'm working for is moving into a new building where we will have 3 purposely built control rooms connected to one live room.
I'm trying to find out if there is a suitable Cat5 system as an alternative to analog tie lines. Something along the lines of the Roland REAC system (http://www.roland.com/products/en/exp/REAC.html), however this is a propriety system and as we're connecting to analog consoles not really suitable.
Other alternatives are Aviom and Optocore.
I'm hoping to hear from people who have experiences of such a system or with specific ones mentioned. Ideally it would just be tie lines with analog xlr's in - cat5 to xlr's/edac/dsubs.
Thanks for your help.
Johan
