Yannick Olivier, lead broadcast engineer, France Télévisions, and Costa Nikols, strategy advisor, M&E, Telos Alliance, look at the future of sport audio

Major live events like the Paris games, Paralympics and UEFA Euro 2024 dominated TV screens and drew in millions of audiences around the world this past summer. While growing investment in 4K UHD and ever-increasing demand for superior viewing quality push broadcasters and streaming services to innovate with more immersive on-screen experiences, there’s an unsung hero that has underpinned every cup final, gold-medal race and penalty shootout: the audio.

isn’t always enough

Examining and implementing
S-ADM workflows

Serial ADM (S-ADM) is metadata that describes the elements of an audio program to enable object-based personalization in TV productions. It is defined in ITU-R BS.2125 and is starting to be adopted. This summer (2024), France TV and other European broadcasters will use it for the first time in broadcasts of some large-scale sporting events.

Great audio is essential to keep listeners coming back 

If you are in the radio industry it’s probably not too much of a stretch to say that “sound is everything”. You work hard to develop that signature sound that helps your station(s) to stand out when listeners scan the airwaves. Telos has long recognized this importance and hopefully many of you will already be using products from our Omnia line to do just that. But what if you also want to make your content available on demand? How can you ensure that your podcast audio inherits the same signature sound that is so important in your on-air transmissions, and ensure that it stands out in a crowded market?

The frequency of regular visits will depend on a variety of factors, including accessibility, proximity, time, and whatever else the universe sees fit to hurl at us on any given day.
