Building on its Broadcast Academy programme, Studer has announced additional half-day Studer Broadcast Academy introductory training sessions on its Vista and OnAir digital consoles. The free sessions will be held at the Soundcraft Studer premises in Hertfordshire, and will include instruction on the Vista 9, Vista 5 M2, OnAir 1500 and OnAir 3000 desks.
Planned for 9 December 2011, and 26 January and 15 March, 2012, the courses are conducted by independent ex-BBC sound engineer Micky Curling in Studer’s purpose-built studios. All attendees will be offered lunch, as well as morning and afternoon refreshments, and will also be given a tour of the impressive Soundcraft and Studer manufacturing facility. In the adjoining museum attendees are able to view consoles and tape machines from both Studer and Soundcraft’s past, dating back to the 1950s.
For those interested in detailed training and factory certification, Studer also offers full-day courses on the Vista series: Vista Foundation includes product overview, Vistonics U/I and general operation, connection with third-party networks including Optocore and Aviom, and integration with Riedel’s RockNet and MediaNet. Vista Intermediate includes more advanced topics such as detailed presentation of the DSP, I/O formats, Virtual Vista remote control and system redundancy.
To apply for a place on the course or register for interest in future courses, please visit the Studer training registration page. For US training, the American Studer website offers enrollment in the mobile Studer Broadcast Academy in the custom-built 73-foot truck.
