Wheatstone is mixing it up this IBC with Virtual and Fixed Console Combo for TV News.

New Bern, NC, USA -This IBC show, Wheatstone is pairing its fixed Strata console surface with the portability of its Remote Strata virtual mixer for today’s highly collaborative television news team.



With full interactivity between tactile mixing in the studio and virtual mixing on a touchscreen, including real-time fader tracking between the two, the combination offers an independent, yet shared user experience for teams in split locations.

Strata is equally at home in newsrooms, remote vans or sports venues as a compact IP audio console with 32 physical faders that can be layered for 64 channels as well as features like automixing and multi-touch navigation for adjusting EQ curves, filtering, and more.

Remote Strata is a full-featured virtual mixer for the laptop or touchscreen that is similar in feel and function to the Strata fixed console with familiar buttons, knobs and navigation. Remote Strata is a software replication of the Strata console to provide full remote control over mixing functions from a laptop.

Both Stratas provide direct connectivity into major production automation systems with all mixing and processing done by a powerful audio mix engine, the Blade 4TVE. The system is AES67/SMPTE-ST 2110 compatible as part of the WheatNet IP audio network and interfaces with existing intercoms or wireless microphones.

An optional 4RU StageBox One is available for centralizing and adding I/O anywhere in the studio facility, effectively replacing hardware and/or having to run microphone feeds over long distances. Specialized WheatNet IP I/O Blades are also available for managing MADI I/O or for de-embedded audio from HD-SDI streams.

For a demonstration of Strata fixed and virtual options, visit Wheatstone stand 8.D91 at the IBC show.
