EDIT: The master control room isn't used now? Oy, I need to be updated on some things.
The master control room is still used, it just isn't used for production anymore. (It was used to produce some shows up until the move to HD in 2008.)

No, I mean the one that was built along with the HD studio. Is that still used?

@ 10:32AM on WUWA they used TITAN for radar? The lighting around the greenscreen looked different too. I guess they we're working in the HD studio.

Yeah, TITAN is being used... Well, glad to see it back at least temporarily.

You like Titan more than Max? I like its base-map color, Max well they need to choose a lighter one.

They have at least two HD control rooms. Kyle Smith might have said there's a third one, but I'm not completely sure of that.

Did it use the old 2010 titlebars?

They doing Day Planner from the Lightning Rod studio today. :blink:

The lighting for the key wall is pretty terrible, and the camera in front of the key wall starting going into stutter-motion earlier.

They have an interesting stand-up desk with two desktop computers where the OCMs can work with the maps.

EDIT: I've been informed that this is the Digital Media Center that people have been talking about. I'm really behind on the TWC info.

They're back in the HD studio for the second half of Day Planner today. I wonder if construction is finally complete.

Highly doubt it. Sometimes, they take breaks.

At the start of Day Planner Heather made specific mention of there being "no construction noise" today, as well as the fact that they are in the HD Studio.
