First Studer Vista 5 Goes On The Road In Ireland

News Image
Television Mobiles Ltd (TVM), a leading outside broadcasting facilities/service provider, has chosen the new Studer Vista 5 digital console to spruce up the audio section of its popular OB3 production truck, becoming the first customer in Ireland to adopt the Vista 5 for a mobile broadcast application.
TVM's Bart Arnold briefly auditioned the Vista 5 at the 2006 IBC expo before deciding that it offered one of the most attractive price-performance packages on offer for a compact digital console.
The Vista 5 replaces a 48-channel analogue console in the 40-foot OB3 Volvo artic, which has four separate rooms, Production, Sound, VTR and Engineering, has been designed to cover sports and light entertainment. It carries a 12-camera scanner, with a current component of six Hi-Def and six Standard cameras, although the latter will be phased out as the OB3 becomes a fully HDTV unit.
So compact is the Vista 5 that the TVM team had space left over after installation, enabling them to mount the VGA monitor on custom-built oak panels beside the console.
Reflecting the variety of shows and events attended by the OB3, the Vista 5 can slide into two different positions, one for sports, and the other ideal for music production.
In the first few weeks after commissioning, Bart Arnold assigned the OB3 with its Vista 5 to a variety of projects, including live rugby matches and horse-racing at Leopardstown.
