Sonotechnique has just been appointed Canadian distributor for Lawo radio products.

Headquartered in Montreal and with offices in Toronto and Vancouver, Sonotechnique serves broadcasters with planning, integration and installation services. The company will represent Lawo’s full line of radio equipment and solutions, including the ruby and crystal mixing consoles, high-density Power Core AES67 audio gateway, touchscreen-based crystalClear mixer, and Rǝlay line of Virtual Radio software for PCs.

‘Beginning an association with Lawo at this moment is particularly good timing,’ says Sonotechnique President, Patrice Delhaes. ‘We have seen that many of radio’s early AoIP adopters are now looking to begin their second round of networked-studio builds. Many stations with traditional studios are also preparing to network. All of them want standards-based networking, rather than proprietary protocols that limit their choices. Lawo, with their continuing technical innovation and commitment to open standards such as Ravenna and AES67, is a perfect fit.’

‘Lawo is very pleased to be working with Sonotechnique,’ says Lawo Head of Sales for Radio, Jochen Richter. ‘Thirty years of personalised service has given them enviable experience and insight into the Canadian radio market, and their skill in helping broadcasters define and achieve their operational goals is second to none. It is a pleasure to welcome them as our partner in Canada.’
