Wheatstone Audio Processing

Deliver sound so good, you can feel it. Bring it on with Wheatstone's ultra high resolution Vorsis processors for voice, AM, FM on-air or streaming. Sound that's loud, yet detailed. Only Wheatstone offers processors with the surgical precision of 31-band processing for audio detail that sings! It’s the Vorsis advantage and it's all inside: brilliant highs, articulate vocals, bold bass…ambience. If you need sound shaping for FM, AM, HD, television, webcasting, podcasting, mastering or live audio, this is the place.

Tee Time

Meet Tee Thomas, who is a bit of an audio eccentric even by our standards. It's straight up 24-bit, 44.1 kHz sampling all the way for his stations in Lubbock, Texas. And by way, we mean Wheat Net-IP AoIP routing through fiber optic link from the studio to the transmitter site. So, when Tee says he's gone kind of nuts with the Wheatstone stuff, we have to wonder.

There’s something you need to know about Tee Thomas, aside from the fact that he’s Ramar Communications’ Chief Engineer for three FMs, an AM and ten TV stations in Lubbock, Texas.

How do you describe "cleaner" at your station?

Audio processing is very subjective. How do you describe the meaning of "cleaner" at your station?

In this video, Mike Erickson hosts as we hear telephone interviews with several AirAura customers, each of whom describes how the Vorsis AirAura resulted in a cleaner sound for their respective stations. Interviewees include Robert Butler of North Texas Public Broadcasting, Bob Hoffman of Hubbard Radio St. Louis, George Corso of Beasley Broadcasting in Miami, and Stephen Poole of Crawford Broadcasting in Birmingham, Alabama.

This video is presented in 720p High Definition.
