Leading dry hire and multi-location production solution provider Presteigne Broadcast Hire has expanded its mixing capabilities with the purchase of a 40-fader Calrec Artemis Shine console for large live event mixing and simultaneous multitrack recording. The UK-based company offers solutions to a wide range of production requirements worldwide, through its RF, audio, video, EVS, HD and 3D divisions.
Presteigne’s new desk supports 680 channels, with 128 main and group buses, 32 auxiliary buses and 64 track buses. Included in the purchase is a Calrec Hydra2 audio router with two remote stageboxes, two local I/O boxes and six Madi interfaces. The system is quick to set up and configure, as well as giving high audio quality and control.
‘As a rental business supporting the professional market, we listen to our customers and provide the kit they need,’ says Mike Ransome, CEO of Presteigne Broadcast Hire. ‘Calrec is the number one name in broadcast audio, and we are delighted to be able to offer the Artemis. It is a powerful console in a compact frame, and has a user interface that our customers are already familiar with.’
