Broadcast services company Dome Productions has chosen Calrec Audio for its newest HD truck, Echo. The 53-foot trailer is designed to be used as a standalone HD vehicle for NHL, NBA, Major League Baseball and other productions.
"Our business is growing and we are building capacity to match," noted Mike Johnson, director of engineering for Dome Productions in a statement. He cited both the quality of the technology and Calrec's customer service as major factors in their decision to acquire the audio console.
The truck will used a 64-fader Sigma console with Bluefin high-density signal processing, which packs all the necessary computing power into a single card, saving space and electricity. The Sigma with Bluefin incorporates 320 channel processing paths that can be configured for as many as 52 full surround channels.
It is the eighth audio control Calrec has provided Dome, which is owned by CTV Specialty Television and Rogers Broadcasting in Canada.
