Modernizing Vice Media’s Audio Production

Modernizing Vice Media’s Audio Production

Challenge

  • Upgrade and replace the main audio production infrastructure to improve performance, reliability, and production capabilities.
  • Create a secondary audio post-production and backup room to provide greater flexibility and operational redundancy.

Solution

  • KMH assessed the new system requirements and developed an updated approach to meet production needs.
  • Fabricated new cabling and planned the removal and re-integration of the existing mixer, along with necessary room modifications.

Results

  • Implemented new workflows and system improvements to enhance overall production operations.
  • Delivered significant improvements in audio quality, production efficiency, and workflow optimization.

When Vice media needed a systems integration company to meet their quick turnaround requirements to replace their main audio control room mixer while creating a secondary audio post and back-up room, they turned to KMH Integration. Working with Vice engineering, KMH assessed the new system requirements and fabricated new cabling off site while planning the removal and re-integration of the existing mixer and room modifications necessary to support the new mixer.

Vice also elected to enact ergonomic and system improvements. All of this was completed in a 10 day period with KMH and Vice working with Lawo engineers to configure and test the new audio system. Lawo utilizes AES 67 audio that was integrated with the Vice IP core routing system provided by Imagine Communications.

Vice elected to use a nearby room and have KMH design in interconnectivity that would allow the old mixer to be relocated and act as a backup and be utilized for audio improvements.
