Topic:

Digital Audio in Today’s Broadcast and Production Environment

George Wicker and Joe Wellman
Sigma Electronics

In the digital broadcast era, audio is no longer seen as the poor step-sister to the video content of the materials we produce. With multi-channel audio, a variety of broadcast standards and a large number of distribution channels, dealing with digital audio has become more problematic.

George Wicker and Joe Wellman of Sigma Electronics will present an outline of the different acceptable and proposed standards for AES/EBU and will discuss the benefits and problems associated with each.

Section Internet Mailing List

We have a full-featured Internet mailing list for support of Section activities. List members receive meeting notices and other appropriate announcements. The list is easily administered via the web. You can subscribe, unsubscribe, and change your list options —yourself—  on the list Info Page, or view past list messages kept the list Archive.

And now there's another list that may be of interest — AtlTech — created for those in the Atlanta area interested in broadcast, television and motion picture engineering. It is a "place" online where SMPTE members interested in the SBE can learn of what they're doing, and where SBE members can learn of SMPTE activities, etc. You can subscribe, unsubscribe, and change your list options —yourself—  on the list Info Page, or view past list message kept in the list Archive.
