Danmon Asia completed the delivery of TC Electronic Auto Loudness Correction equipment – 04 sets of DB6 Multi 1 for the national television broadcaster of the Vietnam - VTV via our partner so-called Pakotek in May 2015.
 

The project was aimed at audio loudness control for four broadcasting channels including VTV1, VTV1 HD, VTV3 and VTV3 HD which are considered among the most important channels of the national broadcaster.

Mr. Uong Huy Dung - Danmon Asia’s Sales Engineer said, the equipment which includes Loudness Wizard II (aNorm) License for DB6 PreInstalled was respectively installed and tested between July and September and are all placed in the Master Control Room or MCR before transmission of the Technical and Program Production Center.

Talking about the effectiveness of the project, the MCR technicians said the DB6 equipment operate automatically and have managed to fix some of their audio issues related to loudness and audio level while transmission. However, they are still in learning curve and will need more time to learn the full advantages of this equipment due to a fact there are many types of programs in VTV including music, news, special programs, movies, etc.
 

VTV is among the first few broadcasters in Vietnam that applies the audio loudness control in their broadcasting channels in compliance to the Ministry of Information and Communication’s guidelines on audio loudness standardization.
