Automated remote radio production

This article will give you the information in order to setup the integration between MultiCAM RADIO and MultiCAM AIR BRIDGE.

For this article, we will use: SDI connection between MultiCAM RADIO and MultiCAM AIR BRIDGE, AoIP environment (Livewire), Embedded MultiCAM Audio Detector. 

Note: There is an example. For such integration can be used NDI, Dante, and analog audio.

First, you need to install AoIP driver on servers with AIR BRIDGE and RADIO and configure input and output channels.

For our example, we will use 3 output channels and 1 input channel for AIR BRIDGE:

And 1 output channel and 3 inputs for RADIO:

MultiCAM AIR BRIDGE configuration

Open settings using GEAR in the left bottom corner of the interface:

And go to "Studio Devices" tab

For Single input choose SDI input, which connected with MultiCAM output (DeckLink Line# 0 in our example) and Audio input (Livewire In 01 in our example)

After, in Guest Outputs tab: 

Assign Video Outputs and Audio Outputs for guests (Decklink Line#2, DeckLink Line#3, Livewire Out 02 and Livewire Out 03 in our example). For each output choose Video Mode the same as in MultiCAM RADIO.

Restart AIR BRIDGE software.

MultiCAM RADIO configuration

First, you need to add SDI inputs, which connected with AIR BRIDGE (input 3 and 4 in our example)

Next, add audio inputs in AUDIO EXT. DEVICES (Livewire in 02 and Livewire in 03 in our example)

In AUDIO PLAYBACK add additional output (Livewire Out 01 in our example)

In AUDIO MAPPING unassign guests audio from AIR BRIDGE for a new playback channel (Livewire in 02 and Livewire in 03 for Livewire Out 01 in our example)

Next, open RADIO settings tab CONSOLE and choose "Embedded AudioDetector by MultiCAM". And add guests audio (Livewire in 02 and Livewire in 03 in our example)

Save configuration. 

Now you can add presets for each guest in the PRESETS tab and setup other steps.
