Rooms like yours, already on air.

Varto designs, integrates and commissions production systems for stations and production companies, municipalities, campuses, congregations, corporate teams and venues. Equipment, design, integration, commissioning, training and support all come from one company in East Rutherford, New Jersey.

The equipment is much the same from one to the next. What changes is who operates it, and what happens if it stops.

Broadcast & Media

Network-grade systems for stations, studios, production companies and community broadcasters: camera chains, switching, graphics, prompting, shared storage, playout and the transmission path out of the building.

Straight Shooter Media · The Stephen A. Smith Show, Jersey City, NJ. Varto designed, integrated and commissioned the camera systems and both control rooms, and trained the staff who ran them.

Government & Municipalities

Council chambers, PEG studios and community channels built so a typical meeting runs from one position at the desk: chamber audio, camera coverage, recording, streaming and playout.

Piscataway Township · Piscataway Community Television, Piscataway, NJ. Varto designed, integrated and commissioned all three rooms, trained the township’s staff, and still supports the systems.

North Brunswick Township, NJ. Varto installed Cablecast playout for the township’s PEG channel, and supplied and installed the chamber’s Panasonic 4K PTZ cameras.

Sports Venues & Teams

Replay, graphics, scorebug data, intercom and the venue infrastructure underneath, built for game-day pressure from high school Fridays to the pros.

Seton Hall University Athletics · Mike Sheppard Sr. Stadium, South Orange, NJ. Varto designed, integrated and commissioned the room, and trained the program’s own staff to run it.

boardrooms · campuses · congregations

Systems run by staff, students and volunteers.

The same equipment, specified for people who did not come from a control room, with training and documentation treated as part of the build.

A corporate production desk with a switcher control panel, a PTZ camera controller, rackmounted audio and monitors

a corporate production desk: switching, ptz control and monitoring

Corporate & Enterprise Events

Hybrid event rooms, executive studios and event production with redundancy, for organizations that need more than a meeting camera and less than a broadcast department.

Pitney Bowes. A corporate production environment built on NDI and Dante, with PTZ cameras running autotracking, Allen and Heath audio, NETGEAR AV networking and Adder KVM.

Education

From middle school media programs to university athletics: classroom switchers, sports rigs with replay, campus networks, and the training that keeps them running through the school year. These systems are specified for operators who range from twelve-year-olds to professionals.

Becton Regional High School, East Rutherford, NJ. A Varto school project: a television studio with three prompter-equipped cameras, an anchor desk and a green-screen wall.

A Christmas liturgy at St. Vartan Armenian Cathedral carried on multiview and program monitors above a TriCaster control surface

Houses of Worship

PTZ cameras on presets, simplified switching, and a broadcast mix split from the house console, built so the service does not depend on one technical volunteer. A phased path that starts with audio and grows into cameras and graphics is normal here.

St. Vartan Armenian Cathedral, New York, NY. PTZ cameras placed to cover the liturgy respectfully, TriCaster switching, and a repeatable service workflow. Varto has also worked with Our Lady of Consolation in Wayne, NJ, and Calvary Baptist Church in Morristown, NJ.

A sector that is not listed

Varto has also delivered media centers, a state lottery draw studio and visual radio studios, and upgraded a station production truck. Tell us what has to go on air, where, and on what date.
