Another year has gone by right before our eyes, yet here we are in the first week of a brand new year. We prepare to wave goodbye to the memories, challenges, and triumphs that embodied 2021 and say hello to the trials, opportunities, and discoveries that await us in 2022. So before we say our final goodbye, we want to take a moment to reflect on all of the best moments from our year here at Telos Alliance. Without further ado, we present our blog one year in the making: Telos Alliance's 2021 Year In Review—Top Blogs, Videos, Social Posts, and Product Introductions!

We're honored to share that we've recently received three “Best in Market” awards (previously Best of Show at the 2021 NAB Show) from leading industry publications! RadioWorld awarded the new Axia Quasar SR AoIP Console a Best in Market 2021 award, while TV Technology and TVB Europe both recognized Telos Infinity VIP Virtual Intercom Platform as Best in Market this fall.

If you follow along with our Telos Alliance blogs, you may remember our recent story of Rares Paunescu. Rares had the dream at just 11 years old of building his own home studio using Telos Alliance Axia and Omnia gear. At 19, Rares turned that dream into a reality! We wanted to get a closer look at his journey, so we reached out and sat down for a Behind the Sound interview to hear this young man's inspiring story.

Dear Omnia Guy,

Our Omnia.11 sounds amazing on HD, but we are splitting off and adding an HD2. I don’t see an option to add an HD2 for the Omnia.11. Omnia.9 has it. Have you thought about adding that to the Omnia.11?

In this episode of Behind the Sound, we get to speak with Tony Bono. Tony has had a hand in just about every aspect of radio over the past 52 years from producer, to DJ, to program director, general manager, owner, and beyond. In 2018, Tony decided to upgrade his audio processing to none other than Omnia VOLT. In this interview, Tony shares everything he loves about our Omnia VOLT, as well as explains the difference it made for his station’s sound with version 2.0.

In our recent Behind The Sound interview, we got a chance to speak with Tom Van Gorkom. Tom has been in his role as broadcast engineer for Radio Esperanza (Hope Radio) for the last 8 years. He was recently tasked with upgrading all the equipment. After reviewing options and talking to users, he chose Axia for their mixing consoles. He continued to remodel their studios, one at a time. Eventually, for their webplayer and phone app, they went with Z/IPStream R/1 so they could feed it with Livewire and have control over the audio routing to it.

More recently, their audio processors were randomly locking up at the transmitter sites, so they decided to try out Omnia VOLT. Tom was impressed with the interface, flexibility, and clarity. Tom then implemented Omnia MPX Nodes to clear up STL distortion and overshoots, which allowed them to install the VOLT at the studio. Sure enough, it worked well, allowing them to send the processed audio to two FM stations from one VOLT fed by Livewire. Hear all about Tom's projects and decision-making in this interview.
