Pharos Interfaces Audio Servers to Omnibus Systems G3 Platform

Pharos has become the first third-party vendor to interface products to the OmniBus G3 platform

Pharos interfaces audio servers to OmniBus Systems G3 platform OmniBus Systems have announced that Pharos has become the first third-party vendor to interface products to the OmniBus G3 platform. Pharos audio servers are now G3 compatible, meaning users of any OmniBus G3 system can seamlessly integrate the audio servers into their facilities. The first installation of the Pharos G3-enabled audio servers is at the new BBC Broadcast Centre in London. The G3 architecture is based on standard, open-IT protocols, making it flexible and scalable and allowing broadcasters to use a single consistent interface to integrate, control, and configure OmniBus products and third-party equipment for smooth content-flow management throughout entire operations.

With the G3 interface capability, Pharos audio servers communicate directly with OmniBus systems such that to the user they function as a tightly integrated unit. Now, for instance, any voice-overs recorded to the Pharos audio servers are instantly available to OmniBus automation, making scheduling and play-to-air simpler processes. By using the power of Microsoft.net architecture, OmniBus G3 technology offers a unique implementation of micro-modular design, delivering integrated units of functionality, each addressing the precise requirements of individual users. In sharp contrast to the "one-size-fits-all" approach of traditional software development, G3 provides tailored, task-specific modules that share a common interface.
