MALAYSIA: 

Appointed by main contractor, Global Technological Solution (GTS), JAA Systems has successfully upgraded and modernised yet another two RTM FM radio stations in Terengganu and Pahang, nestled along the beautiful shoreline of the East Coast of the Malaysian Peninsula.

The adoption of AoIP technology – specifically AES67 ­– was a crucial aspect of this upgrade. AoIP allows for more efficient and flexible audio routing, enhancing the overall quality of broadcasts. JAA Systems incorporated Calrec’s Type R digital audio consoles in various sizes across the studios, with seven mixers for RTM Terengganu FM and six for RTM Pahang FM. At the same time, a large audio router in the Master Control Room is using Calrec’s Type R Core at both stations respectively. All the routing and control are managed by a single Calrec LSP touch panel. RCS’s Zetta radio automation system, Yamaha mixers and Merging Technologies’ interfaces also feature.

LaON’s Genie “matrixless” digital IP intercom panels have been implemented for internal communication purposes, alongside Prodys’ Quantum 2 W and Quantum ST IP audio codec system, as well as JK Audio’s RemoteMix 4 for mobile reporting. The addition of WinMedia’s Wincam to its visual radio system highlights RTM’s commitment to aligning with industry trends. Visual radio enables broadcasters to connect with their audiences through multimedia channels, besides traditional radio reach. Also selected is Sonifex’s AoIP Grand Master, Artel’s PTP switch and the Orban Optimod 8700i LT audio processor.

“The overall combination of advanced audio equipment, automation systems, IP technology and visual elements paint a picture of a comprehensive and technologically advanced broadcasting setup at both RTM Terengganu FM and RTM Pahang FM. This integrated approach by JAA Systems is to provide a rich and immersive experience for listeners while optimising the efficiency of the broadcasting workflow. It reflects a positive stride in keeping up with technological innovation within the broadcasting industry, ensuring these RTM studios remain at the forefront of modern broadcasting,” said Ts. David Chan, director of JAA Systems.
