Southern Methodist University (SMU) basketball’s production team, MustangVision, has been streaming its games to ESPN Plus and utilizes two Studio Technologies Model 214 Announcer’s Consoles in its basketball arena, Moody Coliseum, as well as a Model 46A Intercom Interface, located in the central control room on the fifth floor of the football field, Ford Stadium.
SMU more recently started broadcasting to ESPN Linear, including ESPN+, ESPN2 and ESPNU, and the production team was required to support more strenuous technical demands. With the new plan to stream to these national networks, one of the main challenges MustangVision faced was that the ESPN Linear network had additional redundancy requirements for on-air talent audio over what they were currently deploying.
