About MicroMPX

So, what’s in it for you ?

In classic FM Broadcast systems the audio is send to the transmitter sites, so at every transmitter site a STL limiter, stereo-generator and RDS generator is needed to generate the MPX and is than fed to a transmitter. The MPX needs some clipping to get some loudness in the MPX domain.

Usually all transmitter sites are equipped with an FM broadcast processor, and an RDS encoder.

With MicroMPX this is not needed;
The FM broadcast processor, RDS encoder and a MicroMPX encoder is seated at the studio site.
The digitalised MicroMPX stream from the studio is streamed via IP to as many transmitter sites as your bandwidth allows.
At the transmitter site a MicroMPX decoder is used to convert the MicroMPX stream to analogue MPX to feed the transmitters.

This saves money!

Especially when multiple transmitters are used for the same program:

- A Phantomtronics MicroMPX decoder is power efficient (10W)
- You don’t need any stereo generators, audio processors or RDS encoders at the transmitter site.
- This saves rack space at the transmitters sites; Often rack space costs money !
- This makes dynamic RDS and playout integration easier, since the RDS encoder is in the studio.
