#IBC2025 MAPPING OUT UNIQUE SOUNDS
Nugen Audio BY KEVIN EMMOTT
Introducing show visitors to the sounds of historic tombs, cavernous concert halls and hidden urban gems, Nugen Audio is showcasing its unique Reverb Map at IBC. Providing a resource for location sound professionals, fi eld recordists, Foley artists and audio broadcast teams looking to incorporate real reverberation into their projects, the web- based interactive map highlights locations across the globe that are known for having unusual acoustic characteristics. In a world where AI dominates content creation, the Reverb Map enables users to plan recordings around a variety of real-life spaces. Available free of charge through
the Nugen Audio website, the Reverb Map offers a springboard for professionals seeking real- world reverberation profi les to use during fi eld capture or sound experimentation. Built with the same reverberation modelling technology and impulse response methodology behind Nugen’s other plug-ins, the map aims to add more authenticity and depth to immersive workfl ows and location-based audio planning. The collection includes acoustical landmarks like the Sydney Opera House in Australia, Boston Symphony Hall in the United States and St Paul’s Cathedral in England, alongside lesser-known spaces, such as the TANK Center in the US, Echo Cave in South Africa, and Teufelsberg Spy Station in Germany.

STRONG CONNECTIONS FOR TOUGH TV Percon BY DAVID FOX
Percon’s armoured SMPTE311M cable is designed to deliver maximum durability in demanding broadcast environments and combines robust mechanical protection with high-performance transmission capabilities. At its core is a spiral steel
armour that protects the cable
from heavy impacts and crushing forces. Complementing this is a tough PUR (polyurethane) outer jacket, which resists tearing and abrasion during frequent deployment and retraction. Each internal fi bre is further shielded by individual Kevlar reinforcements, signifi cantly increasing the cable’s resistance to stress and damage. Its new design directly addresses some of the most common failure points found in traditional SMPTE
cables. These include fi bre breakage due to equipment rolling over the cable, longitudinal cuts from poor
winding/unwinding practices, and compromised watertight seals. Percon has also unveiled modular Keystone system patch panels, offering a wide range of adapters, including
