Korean Broadcasters Embrace Calrec Audio Solutions
The past year has seen significant growth for Calrec Audio consoles in the Korean broadcasting market, with several prominent broadcasters investing in the company's audio mixing solutions. The Hyundai Home Shopping Network, a T-commerce channel, recently installed its first Brio36 console, which has received praise from the broadcaster for its premium quality audio and compact design.
MBC TV, a terrestrial TV channel owned by Munhwa Broadcasting Corporation, also installed a Brio console, citing its low-cost and high-performance capabilities as ideal for its news operation. MBC already has 14 Calrec consoles installed, making it a familiar customer with the company's capabilities.
Korean Broadcasting System (KBS), a long-time Calrec customer, is currently installing two new Artemis desks for live radio programming and recently purchased two Summa consoles, one of which was used for the FIFA World Cup. The second Summa console is being installed at KBS Mokpo.
In another project, KBS installed Calrec AES67 interfaces at its main facility to connect its range of existing consoles to an AoIP network, easily and cost-effectively. The installations were handled by Calrec's official Korean distributor, Ingang Audio.
