Real Radio Hosts Working Virtually, How Real Humans Work with Containerized Broadcast Systems
Brief Summary
Containerized broadcast systems are now on-the-air in a variety of radio stations. Is human talent adapting? Do they even have to?
Description
Radio broadcasters have been anticipating their eventual deployment of virtualized broadcast software as part or most of their studio and backend infrastructure. A few radio stations and radio networks have already moved to a largely virtualized infrastructure while others are in the process now. The virtues of virtualization have been the topic of several dozen professional presentations ranging from manufacturers’ revelations to scholarly presentations.
With some systems on-air now, it’s time to ask, “What is working differently or the same – for broadcast engineers and for on-air talent?”
This SBE Chapter presentation asks that question and presents answers from broadcast engineers, broadcast IT professionals, and on-air talent.
