Wyatt 002 - Broadcast and Recording Studio
Peabody College boasts the only broadcast uplink facility at Vanderbilt University. The WC 002 suite is equipped with a VYVX/fiber optic broadcast system (broadcast TV transmission via fiber optic network) used primarily for live video news feeds for the VU Public Affairs News Office (VUStar - Vanderbilt University Television And Radio). As well as transmitting live signals from the WC 002 studio, we can feed XDCam, BetaCam SP or DV/DVCPro from our head-in. The WC 002 studio is sound-proof and equipped with a small "academic office" set, microphones, lighting, and a 3 telephone line IFB ear-set system. The Wyatt Center studio regularly broadcasts to CNN, Fox News, NBC, ABC, CBS, and many other television news organizations.
A fully equipped radio/audio studio is also part of the WC 002 studio suite. This studio is used to record interviews with Peabody faculty and visiting scholars and other renowned individuals. The recordings provide the core of a modern audio treasury documenting education and social issues and are used in research, instruction and for creating podcasts about Peabody’s work. The audio studio is equipped with a Telos Zephyr ISDN radio broadcast codec allowing interviewees from throughout the Vanderbilt community to participate in national and international radio interviews at quality levels equivalent to being in the same studio as the interviewer. We regularly conduct radio connections with NPR, Reuters, the BBC, the ABC Radio News Network and other radio outlets around the world.
