POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

This week I was invited to play a little part in making this mad idea a reality; 101 karts on an extended track, each with individually routable IEMs and live Mics, and able to chat in real-time not just to each other, but to the commentators, race engineers, and producers on command.

Cannot give enough praise to @antonyshawaudio and @spiritlandproductions for having the guts to take on this brilliantly ambitious project, working closely with @sennheiser to deploy #Spectera across such a wide area, with high range and high quality links achieved with an immensely elegant combination of software, api, and hardware built ground-up specifically for the project; @sslaudio #systemt doing all the heavy lifting on the audio side with externally triggered dynamic routing, mix minuses, automixing and noise suppression; and categorically the largest singular, centralised AV network I’ve ever seen deployed on Netgear, 4250s managing not just hundreds of audio channels in Dante, but switching and control data, video data and NDI, web access for 10+ live-streaming youtube channels with switchable sources, AES67 Riedel & motorola comms for a crew of over 700, and handling the reserve TX line to ESPN and Disney. Mega.

A huge honour to be a part of bringing this idea to the racetrack and pioneering “proximity chat” for more real life, live events of the future.

Extra props to @willthornton15 @joshstu.comm and @plus4audio @neil_.white handling a sprawling comms system, @rasoundeng for handling all things streaming, @tomross1 for connectivity and planning the mad amounts of antennas, APs and switches, @itsaliciajade @soundfairypurple @misstashikins Mike and Lewis smashing mics on 100 folks in no time at all, @claire_middleton_audio for streaming magic, and @andywood_sw19 for bringing us all to the party.

Here is the incredible team behind #proximitychat on Max vs 100.

We want to thank the whole team for helping to make this a reality, it was a lot of hard work and a lot of long hours.

The absolute best in their field, thank you. 🙏

✨ THE END OF AN ERA! ✨

heyy, some news to share…

our @capitalmidlands show is coming to an end.. after nearly 12 years on air, this week is mine and @clairechambers22’s last together - our final show is this friday, 21st february 🫡

what. a. ride! 🤯 it’s been the silliest and best time! thank you SO MUCH for listening and letting us blag our way through life this far!!!

such a ludicrous ‘job’ but more than any of the incredible, ridiculous things we got to do, it’s the people - everyone we were lucky enough to work with along the way - that i’ll treasure the most. thank you to each and every single one of you!!

(as much as i’ve scoured my brain and camera roll, i’ll no doubt have missed some people 🙃 for which i am very, very sorry!)

there’s nobody else i’d rather have blagged my way through life with and shared the studio with all these years than you @clairechambers22 (except from when you used to paint your nails cz that sh*t is stinkyyy 🤢). the longest relationship either of us have had so far! 🤯 thank you is nowhere near enough for everything over the years mate, love ya!

so many incredible memories, and some slightly wonkier ones, of which there might just be another carousel planned for later in the week… (don’t worry the caption will be shorter 🥴)

so here we go then, one final week of ‘Tom & Claire on Capital’ - see you from 4pm! 😘

(it wouldn’t let me tag everyone in the pics so here’s the rest: @joeflemons_ @callumfarmer @katgolledge @stumanton @itsmattcurtis @katiebaxter28 @jacobgrey0906 @_emmasnow @prodanhill - love yas!)
