CINEMATIC LOOK IN LIVE SUPER SLO-MO Red Digital Cinema BY DAVID FOX
Red has two different production sectors in its sights at IBC: live broadcast and independent fi lmmakers, with its new Cine- Broadcast Module and V-Raptor XE, respectively. Jeff Goodman, VP Product Management, Red, said: “The XE is essentially a streamlined version of our V-Raptor X camera.

for independent creators that want the pinnacle of image quality, but don’t need all of the other premium features that the V-Raptor X has.” At $14,995, it’s about half the price. However, it is twice the price of its current offering in that market, the Super35-size Komodo, but “the larger-format, VistaVision, higher-image quality sensor [of the XE], is a big step up”. The Cine-Broadcast Module is
already being used for sports and music productions, marrying the cinematic look of Red’s large- format global shutter sensor cameras with live production. It provides single SMPTE fi bre output and allows the cameras to integrate with RCPs and

FINDING SPACE FOR AUDIO Schoeps
BY KEVIN EMMOTT Pfütze: ‘Partnership allows us to offer some very interesting new products’
Spatial audio formats are an increasingly integral component of the broadcast and content creation industries, and microphone manufacturer Schoeps is highlighting its immersive expertise with its full range of Colette Series and CMIT Series microphones at IBC. Schoeps was involved in this summer’s FIFA Club World Cup, working to develop immersive microphone placements that work better in US stadium environments. Demonstrations on its stand focus on a variety of advanced immersive recording techniques, live and studio broadcast application use, and best practices for fi xed installations. Offering a wide range of tailor-made systems, the company says it is eager to share its knowledge of the science as well as real-world techniques required to get the most out of immersive recording. Florian Gundert, Marketing
Manager, Schoeps, said: “We get involved in a lot of immersive applications in live broadcast events like international soccer tournaments, but we are also seeing increasing demand for immersive recording in music; not just in classical, but also with pop and rock applications.” 8.D64
