 Gaylord Entertainment’s legendary
WSM, home of the Grand Ole Opry,
has purchased Axia Audio consoles and IP-Audio networking gear to outfit
its Nashville, Tennessee studios.
On the air since 1925, the WSM call letters are among America’s
best-known, and the station is the source of the Grand Ole Opry radio
broadcasts, heard by millions on terrestrial and satellite radio. WSM
was recently added to the National Register of Historic Places. WSM’s
Axia gear will be used in the production and broadcast of Opry radio
shows.
The purchase, made through Broadcasters General Store of Ocala,
Florida, includes 20- and 28-position
Element 2.0 mixing
consoles with PowerStation integrated console engines, plus multiple
Axia Audio Nodes (networked interfaces for analog, AES/EBU and
microphone-level audio sources). Axia allows broadcasters to quickly and
easily build audio networks using switched Ethernet to connect a few
rooms, or an entire facility. Axia networks have a total system capacity
of more than 10,000 audio streams, and can carry hundreds of digital
stereo channels (plus machine logic and PAD) over a single CAT-6 cable,
eliminating much of the cost normally associated with wiring labor and
infrastructure. Axia radio consoles are a hit, with installations in
over 2,000 studios worldwide.
