Jünger Audio delivers consistent voice recording for broadcast

Dynamics processing specialist Jünger Audio has launched the D*AP4 VAP Voice Processor, which incorporates a Spectral Signature dynamic EQ offering automatic and dynamic EQ control to balance spectral differences in real-time. By analysing incoming audio and comparing its spectrum with individually predetermined voice 'fingerprints', the unit can automatically apply dynamic EQ corrections to give a consistent sound. Should a performer suffer from a sore throat, for example, on day three of a recording session, the unit will assess the tonal characteristics of the actor's voice on day one and automatically adjust the frequency until both voices match.

The D*AP4 VAP Voice Processor further assists broadcasters desiring to create an aural identity for their radio stations. By using similar spectral sound management principles, the unit measures the running programme and uses the station master sound fingerprint as a reference. The Spectral Signature algorithm matches all different programme elements to this reference signature, thus creating a dedicated 'station sound'.

The Berlin-based producer has also provided a dedicated voice leveler combined with an auto-mixer circuit to help mix voice programmes into loudness-based broadcasting on the fly. An optional SDI I/O card automated voice over can be added for SDI embedded audio. Connected as either an insert into a mixing desk or as a standalone unit, D*AP4 VAP offers interfaces that allow integration in existing environments via an AES insert. The unit can also be used with an optional analogue board that adds two mic-preamps.
