control unit, and the audio device, (RSHD). The Smartcaster unit no longer handles the

audio file playback and recording for the system. It controls the audio device (RSHD)

via a serial control cable. Both boxes connect to the LAN for file sharing as well.

The RIDZ audio switcher is connected to the Smartcaster controller. Audio from the

RSHD is also routed to the RIDZ.

Systems. As the need has grown for switching capability, so has the technology involved

The latest device is an 8 x 2 switcher, allowing eight incoming stereo channels and two

outgoing stereo channels. Eight different sources, such as the production board, a

satellite audio feed, or a CD player may be fed into the RIDZ, where they will be sent in
