Custom Consoles MDesk-Technical HA To Make IBC Debut

Custom Consoles is to promote its full range of broadcast control room and production suite furniture at IBC 2025, Amsterdam, 12-15 September.

Exhibiting on stand 10.A42, the company has nearly three decades of experience in developing and producing technical control furniture for a customer base which includes television and radio channels as well as media production service providers in Britain, mainland Europe and around the world.

Making its first IBC appearance will be the MDesk-Technical HA height-adjustable workstation. "M-Desk Technical is an industry-proven design developed for use in control rooms and related locations where there is no requirement to house large equipment within the body of the desk," commented Gary Fuller, sales manager. "MDesk-Technical HA has an electrically motorised desktop which can be raised or lowered between 66 and 125 cm above floor level. Operators can choose their preferred height or transition between seated and standing work modes. Total lifting capacity is 400 kg, meeting practically any control room or postproduction suite requirements."

The MDesk-Technical HA feature set includes robust extruded aluminium legs, high-strength CDF construction, LED lighting at the front and sides and in the footwell, desktop cable trays feeding work-surface cable ports, plus under-side power sockets for desktop equipment. Available options include personal or PC storage, a wide choice of worktop surface finishes, freestanding 19 inch desktop pods, and desktop induction pads to charge mobile devices.

Also on Custom Consoles' IBC stand will be a latest-generation desk in the Modular-R series. "One of the most successful product ranges in our entire portfolio, Module-R allows customers to select the exact features needed for their current workflow," added Neil Reed, managing director. "The desks are also highly futureproof as they can be modified or extended easily to allow changes in location, staff numbers or workflow."

Module-R elements include single-bay, dual-bay and triple-bay desk sections with front or rear access, work surfaces in matching widths, corner desk sections with integral worktops, slide-out keyboard drawers, equipment pods, storage pedestals and equipment bays. Also available is Module-R Lite, a space-saving version with a front-to-back depth of only 95 cm compared with the 120 cm of Module-R.

Complementing Custom Consoles’ IBC 2025 stand will be an example of the MediaWall video and audio monitor support frame system which offers the same combination of structural rigidity and operational versatility as Module-R desks. MediaWall is fully adjustable to ensure optimal sight lines. Individual or multiple frames can be used in self-supporting mode or coupled directly to the studio wall. Flat-screen video displays of practically any size can be accommodated in almost any configuration. Video display screens can be positioned so that the edges meet exactly to form a continuous horizontal display limited only by the monitor panel bezel. Monitor signal and power cables are fully concealed and can enter or leave the structure at any desired point. Enhancements in the latest version include narrower front-to-back depth, reduced from 60 to 50 cm.
