Teleradio Veneta serves the Veneto region which like most of Italy is under lockdown. Giorgia and Ketty usually do their show in the same studio but they are social distancing so in this case one of them is in the studio and the other is on a Huawei Android phone. As you can tell, even in Italian, they’re able to go back and forth as if there were no distance between them (the first voice is on QGo). If you need to work from home QGoLive is the easiest, fastest and most flexible way to get on the air from wherever right now!
Every night at 7pm 1010 WINS in New York goes to a different neighborhood of the city for live coverage of “Clap Because We Care“. This is the nightly salute from the people of the city to the essential workers who are on the front lines of the fight against Covid 19. On Saturday night April 4, live coverage came from an iPhone running QGoLive propped up in an apartment window in Hell’s Kitchen, across the street from Mt. Sinai West Hospital. We think the salute sounds as big as the gratitude New Yorkers feel.
Building demolitions and QGoLive go hand in hand. Here’s an example from KRLD where reporter Alan Scaia covers the second attempt to knock down an 11-story office building in Dallas, Texas, after last week’s implosion efforts were not totally successful. From these reports it sounds like the Leaning Tower is still putting up a fight. At least the audio is crystal clear! Notice each report contains a pre-recorded interview played right from the field over QGoLive, plus the hosts and reporters enjoy latency-free talkback.
Used the sound clip playback and app’s script function. Sounded great. No dropouts from Downtown DC.
Lee, one quick note. Can the script function work with the iPhone’s auto word generation/auto correct? Those functions help when trying write scripts in haste.
Great idea Mike. Already submitted to the development team and we hope to have it soon. Stay tuned.
Meantime here are a couple of Mike’s reports on a shooting in DC which he was able to put together even without benefit of auto correct.
UPDATE! New version of QGoLive with Auto correct now in the Apple App Store!
Last week, Walter Sabo of Sterling on Sunday needed some help recording spots for his network show. Instead of recording on his own and sending the spots in for editing, another solution appeared in the form of QGoLive. By connecting to my QGoLive receiver, Walter and I were able to chat back and forth about length, beds, etc. Then when it came time to record, we simply started rolling. When the read was over, it was simple to play the audio back to him using QGoLive.
One good option built in to the receiver software is the ability to turn on and off transmit audio going to the remote party. Since the receiver setup on my end was of temporary nature, I didn’t have a true mix minus setup. To prevent Walter’s audio from feeding back to him, I simply turned off the transmit audio by clicking the green “TX” button when it was time to record. This also functioned as a good cue – once Walter heard my audio disappear, he knew it was time to start talking.
Next time a client needs to record a spot for you – consider QGoLive. Maybe you have a car dealership calling in for weekly ads over the phone… this week, have them download the app and give them your generic login to use as credentials. It’s the next best thing to being on the other side of the glass!
