Danmon Group Norway has taken on distribution of all Solid State Logic broadcast products in Norway, including Network I/O, C Series consoles and System T.
The move is regarded as a logical step for the Norwegian business, which has become one of the country’s leading suppliers in broadcast, television, film and commercial production. ‘We have been very focussed on radio broadcast for many years but have seen increasing demand for high-end audio consoles in the TV broadcast market,’ says Sales Manager Ketil Morstøl. ‘We evaluated all of the brands, and took into account the experiences of our customers and our colleagues. SSL stood out clearly as the company with the best reputation, both when considering the products themselves and their reliability, as well as the level of service and support available.’
Danmon’s operator and production-focussed approach to business is also a match for SSL’s own outlook: ‘We create systems that are easy for our customers to use, so it’s easy to make great programs really fast,’ Morstøl says. ‘Our new partnership with SSL underlines that philosophy.’
Morstøl has been particularly impressed with System T – a new broadcast audio production environment based on an Audio-over-IP networked audio infrastructure with multi-user networked control and the powerful Tempest processing engine. ‘It is very impressive,’ he says. ‘A fantastic product at the beginning of its life – I think System T is the future of broadcast audio.’
Danmon Group Norway is one of four companies within the Scandinavian Danmon Group. It supplies products, aftersales services, installation services, and support and training, as well as providing complete turnkey solutions for studios, ENG/DSNG vans, and OB vans.
‘Danmon Group Norway has a vast track record in broadcast installations in Norway and beyond,’ says SSL Senior VP of International Sales at Solid State Logic, Jim Motley. ‘I believe that our shared vision of a networked future for broadcast facilities infrastructure means that together we can truly offer systems that deliver the right results with the right integration and scalability.’
