RTW and Lawo have jointly announced at NAB 2010 that the new RTW TouchMonitor TM7 will be available as a fully integrated hardware option for the Lawo mc² range of digital audio consoles.
Lawo is showcasing the redesigned mc²66 console during NAB with a special OEM version of the RTW TouchMonitor TM7 as part of the desk’s control surface.
The TouchMonitor version specifically developed for Lawo features a customized GUI which allows for the upright operation of the screen so that it integrates into the mc²66.
“RTW and Lawo have both been successfully providing quality audio solutions to the broadcast, recording, post-production and live sound industries for more than 30 years,” says Andreas Tweitmann, managing director of RTW.
“We are very pleased that Lawo has chosen to include the new TouchMonitor TM7 as a hardware option for its mc² range of digital audio consoles. We look forward to developing our relationship further.”
The Lawo mc²66 is an audio console with 512 DSP channels, 144 summing busses and top quality signal processing ensuring maximum precision. The newly developed operation philosophy “assign at destination” allows fast and secure interference also in critical live situations.
The redundantly designable MKII Router with 8192 cross points provides a fully integrated control system for the highest possible level of reliability.
RTW’s new TouchMonitor range with audio metering systems features the TM7 with a 7” touch display, also available as an OEM product for Lawo’s mc² digital consoles. The TM9 comes with a 9” touch sensitive TFT screen.
The stand-alone versions of both models will be available with analog and/or digital audio I/O interfaces including AES3id versions with BNC connectors and a 3G SDI option for the TM9 supporting up to 32 audio channels.
