The aim was to provide listeners and viewers, with a “360° experience and superior audiovisual quality,” which the emblematic Monegasque station easily achieved when it signed onto the new studios in September. Joachim Garraud, a renowned French DJ and tech buff, was influential in the studio layout and lighting design, and our studio experts at SAVE Diffusion in France provided the studio equipment and integration.

We provided a complete WheatNet IP audio networked studio system comprising audio routing, logic control, console surfaces, talent stations, mic processors and virtual interfaces, all tightly integrated with RCS program automation as well as camera automation through our proprietary Automation Control Interface (ACI). (For those who don’t know about ACI, it enables programming to control faders, logic and mixing functions on WheatNet IP consoles directly from the automation system and vice versa.) With ACI, the automation system can control the mix for satellite or local insertion switching, for example. ACI also feeds the camera automation details about mic status and fader position for automatically turning cameras on/off or panning them as needed.

Radio Monaco broadcasts news and thematic programs from Bordighera to Saint-Tropez, France, on 95.4, 98.2 and 103.2. The iconic brand has three streaming channels plus a SiriusXM channel (360) and can also be heard on a DAB+ channel in Paris and Nice.
