The Flexiva VistaMax™ system serves as the network core of multi-station facilities with demanding requirements for shared resources and on-the-fly changes. The optical hub option extends the connection range to other VistaMax networked devices to up to 2 km. For smaller network needs, Flexiva VistaMax Envoy™ networks four Flexiva RMXdigital® and/or Flexiva NetWave® consoles, expandable to eight studios with an optional, second hub card.

Operating a Flexiva VistaMax™ network has never been easier with VistaVue™ workflow management software. Interfaces are definable for each user to help “goof-proof” signal routing changes, whether the user is switching day-parts, merely changing the background music in an office zone or anything in between. Individual and community macros allow for one-click routing changes, supplementing the scheduled and automated macros.

An elegant interface between Flexiva VistaMax™ digital studio networks and automation computers, the Flexiva VMQuadra™ interface tackles a number of key issues — having a large number of audio channels at each automation computer, the distribution of the computers throughout the facility and the need for bidirectional logic control. With the majority of automation system workstations connected to central servers, the Flexiva VMQuadra interface was designed to reside near the server and provide interconnection with up to four computers. Along with the elimination of costly sound and logic interface cards in automation computers, the Flexiva VMQuadra solution results in simpler, more economical facilities. With its additional ability to interface with nearly every computer, the Flexiva VMQuadra interface is an ideal foundation for new media workflows in the studio. Every desktop and portable computer supporting USB audio, whether running Windows, Mac OS, or Linux, can be connected to your Flexiva VistaMax network.

The Flexiva VMConnect audio management frame makes powerful, flexible Flexiva VistaMax™ digital studio networks an option for radio station operations of all sizes. Based upon, and fully compatible with, Flexiva VistaMax audio management frames, the Flexiva VMConnect system delivers total reliability and performance. The Flexiva VMConnect frame adds a new level of scalability to Flexiva VistaMax networks. In addition to lowering the cost of entry for a new facility, it offers an additional means for adding distributed network connectivity to existing networks with Flexiva VistaMax frames. The optical hub option extends the connection range to other networked devices up to 2 km.

The Flexiva™ VMXpress system harnesses the Flexiva VistaMax™ digital studio network’s provision for both centralized and distributed audio and logic interfaces to best match the individual requirements of radio facilities. It adds a new level of scalability by economically providing physical inputs and outputs that can be located where needed, while allowing easy integration into the overall Flexiva VistaMax network. Adding sources and destinations or networking a previously isolated studio is quickly accomplished with the Flexiva VMXpress interface. Eight different models offer numerous analog and digital audio I/O and logic configurations. Based on individual physical plant and operational needs, users can distribute network connectivity to any room in the facility, increase I/O capacity at a technical core area, or create a secondary hub. Flexiva VMXpress is also ideal for ad-hoc point-to-point applications.
