Las Vegas, NV; April 4, 2024 – At NAB Show 2024, Backbone Networks Corporation (Booth W4406) is introducing the world’s first integrated broadcast system for in-venue fan audio experience on iOS/Android phones, as well as worldwide 24/7 streaming between events. Named SoundSystem™, a joint development project of Backbone Networks and Technica Del Arte (NL), this powerful “turnkey” service bonds the venue’s existing wi-fi with 5G and requires no capital expenditure or specialized hardware beyond a simple computer, mixer, and microphones for broadcast. The result is an unprecedented, real-time, subsecond-latency feed for the entire stadium, with 48kHz clarity, and no audio dropouts or dead spots in the venue.
For sports broadcasters, event organizers, and production teams attending the NAB Show, SoundSystem represents an exciting opportunity to explore new horizons in live event broadcasting. SoundSystem, is based on industry standards and is scalable to accommodate over 100,000 simultaneous listeners, making it perfect for any event size, from local sports matches to grand-scale concerts and conferences. During games or live events, fans can use the free EventSound phone app or their team’s app, geofenced to the venue and its immediate vicinity. Before and after games, the app reverts to the worldwide team broadcast stream.
On the production side of the event, SoundSystem offers a suite of features that include automation, live assist for radio production, phones, comms, syndication, and streaming software. Listeners will have multichannel access, with options to select the on-air feed or optional channels for visiting teams, alternate languages, or sight impaired fans.
All attendees are invited to visit us at Booth W4406 in the West Hall to experience SoundSystem firsthand. Experts from Backbone and Technica Del Arte will be on hand to demonstrate this amazing technology and discuss how SoundSystem can be integrated into your next event to create memorable, immersive experiences for your audience.
