MALAYSIA: 

Media Prima Audio, one of the largest radio broadcasters in Malaysia, has called on JAA Systems to install a Remote Monitoring and Control (RMC) solution which allows remote management, monitoring, diagnostics as well as direct control of its major audio equipment from any remote location. The broadcaster is represented through five broadcast brands: Hot FM, Buletin FM, Molek FM, Fly FM and 8 FM as well as the Audio+ app.

The RMC system aims to notify, monitor, and control in real-time on the audio system status in the Control Room via a smart phone or web-based app. The system consists of Davicom’s Cortex as the main brain of the system while Inovonics 635 provide audio monitoring and BDi combines audio switching and sensors together.

Media Prima Audio is now said to more capable of managing its studio facility, and the lack of manpower in the engineering department is no longer an issue, as the team are now able to deal with problems remotely. “The Covid-19 pandemic has taught us many things, including the need for remote work. During the lockdown, many of us were having trouble accessing the studios and monitoring the health of the audio system directly. With this RMC solution, productivity is increased by the option of overseeing the radio studio facility from any remote location and at the same time. It is a great concept,” said Ivan Loh, head of engineering, Media Prima Audio.

“The RMC system is an inexpensive yet powerful solution that can bring a lot of benefits and value to the broadcasters. It aims to solve a situation in which a technical issue occurs in the studio, with RMC’s data allowing decisions to be made quickly to mitigate or even solve the problem remotely,” said David Chan, managing director of JAA Systems.
