HIGHLIGHTS
This is what a 360-degree studio looks like. Radio Monaco’s new multimedia studios mark a turning point with ultra-high-definition 4K cameras, AI assistance via RCS automation, WheatNet IP networked LXE console surfaces, and imposing walls of screens and immersive LED strips.

Sometimes, support calls are about fixing a problem that already happened; other times, they’re about asking, “How can we do this?”
A couple of months ago, we got the second type of call from the engineers at WOR. Today, as I write this, WOR 710 is broadcasting the New York City Marathon using our console and a custom road kit. They knew that a real broadcast board in the field would make intercoms easier than taking a Mackie into the field. So, we went to work. Jay Tyler put together a road case and a custom back panel so plugging in headphones and a network connection would be easier. We then discussed with iHeartMedia’s engineers how to make the broadcast work.
You don’t have to carry a big stick, and you certainly don’t need to broadcast from one either to be a Wheatie. Shown here is Loo Katz with his IP-16 console working the sounds for his internet station Hound Radio, located at the Basset Broadcasting Building (a.k.a. his spare room) in metro DC. Katz started Hound Radio in 2018 and has been running on Wheat since. You can tune into www.houndradio.com for “music, chat, and this and that.” Above, a look inside his home studio, complete with a VoxPro editor and an impressive rack of gear.
