Studio Technologies Introduces Model 201 Interpreter's Console

Tools for interpretation are important in today’s global AV and broadcast industries, with specialised personnel required to manage single- and multi-language feeds.

This ranges from small meetings and live events to large bureaucratic organisations; any production where there is a multi-language audience. Studio Technologies, manufacturer of high-quality audio, video, and fibre-optic solutions, is well-known for creating specialised Dante-enabled products that ease communication within the production workflow, and it’s now excited to offer a device specifically for interpretation use, the Model 201 Interpreter's Console. Making its debut at ISE 2024 (Stand CS530, Congress Square), the Model 201 is a Dante® audio-over-Ethernet-enabled unit that is suitable for use in single- or multi-language situations both locally or in off-site/remote applications.

The Model 201 creates a complete interpreter position and includes both standard features as well as advanced functionalities that are not typically provided by "off-the-shelf" interpretation equipment. The Model 201 includes the ability to create two independent interpretation audio channels. Configuration choices allow a variety of audio content to be included in the interpretation audio; content that can be automatically muted or dimmed (reduced in level) when interpretation is active. This is especially important for off-site or Internet streaming applications.

A dual-channel (stereo) headphone output can be configured to meet the needs of the interpreter. This includes selecting the audio sources, channel routing, and sidetone (confidence) signal operation. A set of buttons and rotary controls allow the user to establish the site-specific operating condition they desire.
