Over the recent Easter weekend the 17th Annual East Coast International Blues & Roots Music Festival (better known as Bluesfest 2006) took place in Byron Bay, New South Wales, Australia.
Byron Bay is located at the Eastern-most point of the continent of Australia and is proud of its "no-traffic light" easy going lifestyle. The town is a popular holiday destination, and with a pleasant all year climate is also home to many people who choose to live away from the major cities.
The festival each year draws thousands of people from all around Australia. Writer, publisher (Rhythms Magazine) and broadcaster Brian Wise from Melbourne was there to record performances and produce three radio programs for the Australian Community Radio Network. Bill Runting from Hardata's Australian Distributor, Waratel Communications was there with Brian and Hardata Dinesat Radio software was used during the eight hours of national broadcasting to bring to listeners highlights of some of the 85 acts performing over four days.
A temporary studio was setup in a portable cabin. An ISDN line was connected and used to transfer the broadcast to the satellite uplink in Sydney. Performances from each of the four stages was recorded by the crew onto Compact Flash recorders which were downloaded onto several laptop computers. These were edited and divided into discrete WAV files which were then imported into Dinesat Radio across a local network.
The programs were presented live hosted by several music experts, led by Brian Wise. Dinesat Radio running on Bill's laptop enabled the program schedule to be revised up until the last seconds before an item was broadcast. Even during the program, more WAV files were being edited and seamlessly imported into the Dinesat database. The laptop was interfaced to the broadcast console using an Edirol UA-25 USB sound device, with the laptop's internal sound device being used for cueing purposes. Throughout Dinesat Radio performed flawlessly and contributed enormously to the smooth running of these special broadcasts.
