APT's WorldCast Meridian codec was used for an IP link between Broadcaster Fox Italy in Rome and a voice talent in Berlin.

Fox Italy launched an entertainment channel in Germany; it used the WorldCast Meridian IP audio codec to record the voice talent's promo in Berlin while monitoring and coordinating from Rome.

Alessandro Travaglini is senior sound designer with Fox Italy . He told APT that the IP approach meant the company didn't need a traditional ISDN solution that would have required a dedicated dual phone line.

The link includes two ProTools stations running the same audio/video session, delivered in advance via FTP; the audio workstation in Rome operates in Master mode and, using the Digidesign SYNC I/O Time Code Generator, controls the other in Berlin.
