Stefan Ledergerber started his professional career as a DSP hardware engineer at Studer (Harman), where he later became responsible for the specification and design of the Vista series mixing consoles. Later, as head of R&D for Studer and Soundcraft he was involved in media networking technologies for the first time. He continued to set this focus at Lawo, where he was heading R&D over 5 years. During this time he contributed to the success of RAVENNA as well as AES67 audio networking standard. He was one of the responsible people behind the commentary system at the World Cup 2014 in Brazil, where IP streaming technology was used for the first time on such a large scale. Stefan Ledergerber holds a masters degree in electrical engineering and in “Management, Technology and Economics” from the ETH Zürich.
Oliver Ettlin holds a degree as “Tontechniker eidg. FA” and realised multiple projects as head of audio for Riedel, Habegger and Smartec. Due to his passion for efficiency he found his way to networking technology. While he is our guy for any kind of network questions he is also teaching classes at ffton, ffakustik and TBZ. Oliver holds a Cisco CCNP certification at Hochschule Rapperswil.
Gabriel Leuzinger gained his skill set starting with Test and HW-Development. Through his years with large Telecom suppliers, he had designed more than 20 boards, from fiber optical receivers to converters and various other interfaces. He then changed to customer relations, supporting tendering, releases, trade shows and providing trainings. After a short excursion into the Security Industry, which already in the year 2002 recorded more than 5000 camera-signals using IP-technology, he returned back to the broadcast world. At Swiss national broadcaster SRG SSR, he had been working with a team who was responsable for planning, engineering, implementation and operation of the high availability platforms for DVB, DAB, streaming, baseband infrastructure and supervision systems of the broadcast distribution chain. Having experienced several technological changes, Gabriel is assessing the actual migration to IP-technology as one of the most interesting and challenging time of his worklife.
