“Every song on the ‘Friday Night Lights’ soundtrack was used in the show, most of them in prime spots where they really enhanced the emotional impact of the scene,” says Liza
“We were adamant that the soundtrack be a true reflection of the show,” adds Katims. But we had an embarrassment of riches of great music to choose from, so we narrowed down the track listing by making sure whatever we chose was especially representative.”
“We’re thrilled to be bringing the “Friday Night Lights” fans another piece of the show they can identify with, as well as help build excitement for the upcoming season,” comments Shelli Hill, Vice President of Video, Music & Product Development for NBC Universal Television Distribution.
Inspired by the celebrated 2004 film “Friday Night Lights,” the program is set in small-town

PRO AUDIO: SENNHEISER DEBUTS NEW EM 3732 TWIN RECEIVER AT AES
OLD LYME, CONNECTICUT: Sennheiser, currently celebrating 50 years of
wireless technology innovation, is introducing the new EM 3732 twin receiver
with 90MHz switching bandwidth at the 123rd AES Convention in New York. The
new flagship of Sennheiser’s 3000 Series, the EM 3732 offers automatic
scanning functionality, choice of five frequency ranges, transmitter
synchronization via infrared interface, flexible analogue and digital
connection options and exemplary audio quality.
Setting new standards for flexibility within the UHF spectrum while
maintaining maximum selectivity, the EM 3732 receiver features six
user-selectable fixed frequency banks and one user bank with up to sixty
channels that can be programmed in increments of 5kHz. The EM 3732
automatically searches for free frequencies within a frequency bank.
An integrated antenna splitter allows up to eight EM 3732 twin receivers to
easily be daisy-chained. The EM 3732 is ideal for large multi-channel
applications, not just because of its wide switching bandwidth and tunable
channels, but also because of its infrared interface, which very quickly and
easily programs SKM 5200, SK 5212 and SKP 3000 transmitters with the
receiver data via a Hot Key.
The receiver’s front panel layout is clearly laid out and its LED display
offers particularly high contrast and intensity. The interface guides users
through intuitive operating menus, featuring easily remembered icons, which
are navigated using a jog dial. Frequently used menu items can be accessed
directly via convenient Hot Key shortcuts. Both receivers can be monitored
via headphones individually or simultaneously.
The receiver system can be remote-controlled and monitored using the
provided Wireless Systems Manager software. The PC is simply connected to
the Ethernet socket of the EM 3732.
Output level can be set in increments of 1dB and is available at a
transformer-balanced XLR-3 analogue output as well as an AES3/EBU audio
output for direct connection with digital mixing consoles. Digital
synchronization of the 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 88.2kHz or 96kHz/24-bit sample rate
can be generated internally or accepted from the digital audio mixer via a
BNC connector. The high level of audio quality is further maintained through
the use of a DSP-based HiDyn plus expander rather than analog circuitry.
A range of convenient antenna accessories is available for the EM 3732 twin
receiver. The rugged AB 3700 broadband antenna amplifier is designed for a
frequency range of 470-866MHz and amplifies the received signal by 5 to
15dB. The antenna booster is fitted with four multi-color LEDs that indicate
amplification in 5dB increments, permitting the sound engineer or RF
engineer to read the respective setting even from a distance. Unlike
conventional antenna amplifiers, the AB 3700 will open a second,
low-attenuation (-6dB) signal path in case of power cuts. Further, two
active receiver antennas are available: the directional AD 3700 and the
omni-directional A 3700.
The EM 3732 is complemented by two variations: the EM 3731 single receiver
and the EM 3732 COM twin receiver, a special command version with a second
XLR-3 audio output for talk-back purposes. All models will be available late
fall 2007.
