♦ On-air VSet controllers have rich capability owing to their connection over IP.
♦ Screening software running on PCs connect over the same network, and can
include integrated softphones, thus smoothing operations and saving the
money that would otherwise have to be spent on hardware phones.
♦ Mixing console control surfaces can incorporate phone system controllers
that need no additional connection; their signaling just rides on the network
connection already there. Rich status information can be displayed either on
the phone control module or the console’s main screen.
♦ Recording and playback of DJ + telephone conversations are simplified. PC-
based editors send and receive audio directly over the network using their native
Ethernet connections.
♦ Receiving Telco service via IP may be much less expensive than the
traditional ways.
The diagram shows a typical installation, hinting at the possibilities inherent
in the system.
The VX Engine
A 2U rack-mount device with enormous processing power, the VX Engine provides
all the call control and audio processing needed for the system. It supports dozens
of telephone lines and many studios. Its two gigabit Ethernet ports provides a cost-
effective interface to both telephone lines and studio audio via Livewire AoIP.
