LAS VEGAS, April 13, 2008 (NAB2008, Booth N2502) — Harris Corporation (NYSE: HRS), an international communications and information technology company, is demonstrating new functionality in its Harris® PR&E VistaMax audio management system at NAB2008 through its new VistaTouch software. The VistaMax audio management system is the centerpiece of the Harris networking and infrastructure equipment for the radio broadcast industry, providing routing and connectivity across the radio broadcast studio to more efficiently share resources while reducing costs associated with traditional audio routing systems. At NAB2008, Harris introduces VistaTouch, a Windows® PC client application that expands access to common tasks for studio personnel with a simple and visually oriented presentation that provides secure system-wide control functionality to operators. VistaTouch software features user-activated "Image Panels" to initiate frequent, show-specific and day-part requirements. Each Image Panel is associated with specific session or macro tasks and controllable via mouse or touch-screen for optimum control. The VistaTouch software offers visual enhancements to the studio operator by associating predefined Picture or Live Webcam images with each Image Panel. As many as 20 Image Panels can be assigned to each application to address multiple-user or requirement-specific presentations at every VistaMax-connected studio within the facility. The Live Webcam streams are ideal for visual cueing of live sources — especially useful for news and talk stations, and live multi-talent morning shows. The Harris® PR&E VistaMax audio management system simplifies network audio management in a centrally located, multi-studio environment by allowing radio stations to connect sources and destinations to the system over the shortest path, eliminating or reducing stand-alone routers, distribution systems and long multi-pair bundles. VistaMax audio management can be used with most Harris on-air and production consoles, including RMXdigital and NetWave consoles. VistaMax audio management systems and RMXdigital and NetWave on-air and production consoles are among the wide range of Harris solutions that optimize the digital studio workflows of today's radio broadcast operations. Harris Broadcast Communications provides products, systems, and services that deliver interoperable workflow solutions that span the entire broadcast delivery chain. The Harris ONE approach brings together highly integrated and cost-effective products that are ideal for emerging media business models and for customers upgrading media operations to digital and high-definition services.
