An important update for the On Air Flex broadcast console is being presented at IBC by Stage Tec.
Thanks to the new XACI card, the console’s control logic is now fully embedded into Nexus, doing away with the need for an external host PC, while also boosting the virtual console control features.
The Stage Tec On Air Flex broadcast console is modular, flexible and IP-based, said Stage Tec, with the system based on web technologies like JavaScript and Webkit. The company is providing access to the console’s control logic from almost any web-savvy device, including mobile devices and tablets irrespective of their OS, in an approach dubbed ‘Remote User Interface’ (RUI).
As of IBC2015, both the control logic and the web-based RUI are available without an external host PC. Instead, both software modules are integrated into the Nexus system via the new XACI card. On Air Flex thus joins other Stage Tec consoles that run their audio and control routines without any help from an external computer.
Stage Tec said that with this new approach, monitoring routines can now also be controlled via the virtual user interface, allowing for comprehensive remote-only scenarios.
