„Hymn to the hybrid“ Interview with Peter Kreutz from Radio Siegen, Germany Radio Siegen is one of 45 local radio stations in North Rhine-Westphalia (NRW). In Germany there are hundreds of those little private radio stations. Radio Siegen has been on air for 15 years and has been the market leader of all radio stations received in Siegen-Wittgenstein since it started. The Siegen-Wittgenstein region is the one with the most competition concerning radio stations in NRW - various public and private radio stations from NRW as well as from Hesse and Rhineland-Palatinate broadcast programmes.
AVT: Mr. Kreutz, could you please introduce yourself to our readers. Mr. Kreutz: My name is Peter Kreutz, I’m a trained electrical engineering technician and at Radio Siegen I’m responsible for radio engineering as well as for all computer based applications. AVT: What experience have you had with AVT products? Mr. Kreutz: Radio Siegen purchased the MAGIC ISDN Telephone Hybrid recently and we’ve had very good experiences with the system, I myself as well as my colleagues who work with the hybrid daily. I implemented the system myself and it worked immediately without any problems. If you are looking for somebody who is singing a hymn to your telephone hybrid, then I’m the right person! AVT: Why did you decide to purchase the telephone hybrid from AVT? Mr. Kreutz: A colleague of mine and I, were at an AVT Roadshow in Cologne where the Telephone Hybrid was presented. I was immediately convinced by the system and therefore we decided to purchase the hybrid from AVT. After we had purchased the system and put it into operation, we were even more enthusiastic than before.

Unlimited Games DTMF Analysis for Gameshows with the ISDN Telephone Hybrids
W
ith the MAGIC ISDN Telephone Hybrid DTMF the MAGIC ISDN Telephone Hybrid System can now analyse DTMF tones. It is possible to analyse and display received DTMF tones for each caller line. The DTMF system supports up to 16 caller lines and it can be used as a DTMF analyser or as a normal Slave system. In the standard operating mode the DTMF analysis detects the key pressed and displays it

chronological order of the pressed keys is additionally analysed. Besides, the fast-
multiplayer gameshows with up to 16 participants are now possible. A special highlight is the gameshow mode in the MAGIC Screener Software. A catalogue of questions, which can be loaded by the presenter at the beginning of the gameshow, can be prepared in advance as an MS EXCEL file. Now the presenter must only ask the questions. The gameshow can be carried out by pressing a single key. The software automatically analyses all answers and immediately displays the current score for each player. Optionally, the DTMF

he MAGIC DC7 and MAGIC AC1 Audio Codecs are particularly suitable for reporting because of their powerful functionality and their compact design. Both Audio Codecs incorporate an analogue POTS telephone interface as well as an ISDN interface for high quality Audio transmissions. The headset interface can be used optimally
for reporting. A Pre amplifier and a limiter for the microphone signal ensure a distortion free transmission. In this way live transmissions can be easily realised. Optionally, the MAGIC DC7/AC1 offers a digital mixing functionality. The headset signal, the Audio output signals and the transmit signal can be mixed and controlled via a user friendly software or via the keypad and display. You only need the DC7/AC1 Audio Codec Page 2
and a telephone connection and the transmission can be started. The Audio
Codecs can be controlled via the front keypad as well as via a Windows PC software included in the delivery. Optionally, you can also operate the system with the MAGIC DC7/AC1 Keypad.
