Donostia Kultura Radio integrates the HDX4 system from Hardata

The municipal radio station of San Sabastián DK Radio has renewed from the hands of ICC Broadcast the HDX4 emission system; integrating new mixing consoles, Audioscience sound cards and the digital audio processor to improve the sound.

The central control and its two studios now have equipment that has improved continuity with the choice of HDX Radio 4 software from Hardata.

The consulting and integrator ICC Broadcast has provided all the new equipment as well as the complete assembly of the Basque municipal radio station and training for its workers. The software allows recording, importing, programming and broadcasting audio and videos, maintaining the operational characteristics of a radio station. In addition to traditional audio output, Hardata HDX radio 4 generates a video output that can be used for TV or publishing on the web and social networks.

One of the reasons why the station has opted for the HDX4 system is because of its scalability, as well as the work with playlists. The system is also completed with a Hardata Smartflow 4 Technology server with five users and two HDX Radio 4 software licenses with AudioScience multi-device sound cards.

New consoles

The installation at the San Sebastian radio station has also included replacing the old consoles with two mixing consoles. D&R Airence with unit expansion (with 6 more inputs) and featuring a master unit with 4 microphone/stereo line/USB inputs; 3-band equalizer; 2 telephone hybrid inputs; Call LED; 100mm faders; faderstart; aux Pre or Post, as well as a measurement system via USB.

A table has also been set up in the studio Airlite with 8 double inputs, 3 microphone inputs with EQ, 4 USB inputs/outputs, 16 USB control buttons, integrated telephone VoIP functionality (Skype) and measurement software.
