Jünger Assists TV Chile With Loudness

Jünger Audio has released news of its collaboration with a major Chilean broadcaster in regulating loudness levels.
While there are no loudness regulations in Chile, the company needed assistance in regulating its broadcasts so that they would comply with regulations in countries like the USA.
TVN's international channel, TV Chile, is broadcast around the world via satellite.
Mauricio Rojo, TVN's Deputy Manager of Engineering, was charged with the task of finding a loudness control solution that would meet this challenge and, after carrying out tests with several manufacturer's products, he chose T*AP Television Audio Processors from German Loudness Control specialist Jünger Audio.
"We already had a loudness processor from another manufacture but we wanted something that was more flexible in the final audio chain and has a sophisticated algorithm that could deliver very high quality audio," Rojo explains.
"The Jünger Audio T*AP processor won the test hands down because it was so simple to use and, thanks to Junger Audio's LEVEL MAGICT II algorithm, was able to deliver the audio quality we were looking for.
"There are entry level products available from other manufacturers that are cheaper but they didn't offer the same audio quality," he added.
"Considering their performance, the T*AP units were very cost-effective and we had no hesitation in ordering two of them."
Founded in 1969 as a public channel, TVN is Chile's main broadcaster with a reach that extends to 98% of the country.
"Our international channel is available in Europe, all the Americas and Oceania so it was important that our broadcasts complied with the legislation in place in those territories," Rojo says.
"T*AP's compliance with all international standards and regulations (ITU 1770/1/2/3, ATSC A85 or EBU R128) was a key point in our final decision making."
TVN has now installed one T*AP processor on TV Chile's transmission chain and it will be installing its second T*AP on TVN's main transmission chain very soon. Both units were supplied by Jünger Audio's distributor in Chile, Intervideo Ingeniería y Telecomunicaciones Ltda.
"We are very happy with the way the first T*AP processor is performing, particularly with the quality of the audio," Rojo adds.
"Our sound engineers are very satisfied because their final mixes are controlled without compromising the aesthetic of the sound."
