Its integration allows external analogue sources to be easily brought into a single control point, supporting the audio supervisor in managing multiple signals efficiently. It is equally suited to Master Control Room (MCR) environments, where reliable handling of diverse audio sources is essential. In this context, the module enables seamless incorporation of analogue feeds into workflows for signal quality control, playout coordination, and compliance monitoring, all within a centralised
