Paired with HOME 4.0, it will ensure scalable, high-quality production for OB and remote workflows.

At IBC 2025, Lawo underscores its leadership in IP-native broadcast technology with a focus on premium sports coverage, including cricket—India's most popular game. While the company introduces innovations across its portfolio, one spotlight is firmly on its mc²-based mixing system, a proven solution for high-stakes live broadcasts in stadiums and OB vans around the globe.

mc²56 – The Audio Backbone of Global Sports

From cricket to football, athletics, skiing, aquatics, and more, Lawo's mc²56 audio production console as well as its mc²36 xp and mc²96 siblings have become an industry benchmark for sports broadcasters who require absolute reliability, advanced workflow control, and pristine audio quality. For cricket in particular—where broadcasts must capture not only the excitement of the crowd but also the detailed sound of the bat-and-ball action—the mc²56 delivers superior clarity and spatial accuracy, ensuring every moment resonates with viewers.

The mc²56 is IP-native by design, offering full SMPTE ST 2110/RAVENNA/AES67 compliance for seamless integration into modern workflows, while maintaining compatibility with MADI and Dante® for hybrid setups. Its compact footprint and high processing density make it ideal for OB vans that cover large-scale cricket and other tournaments, where space and efficiency are critical.
