dB Broadcast delivers new 13.5 metre OB vehicle to BBC Radio & Music
dB Broadcast, the leading independent UK systems' integrator, has completed the technical installation of a new 13.5 metre mobile studio vehicle for Siemens, on behalf of BBC Radio Resources.
With the ability to deliver a totally digital broadcast path from a live event to the transmitter network, the new vehicle will bring greater flexibility and improved coverage to large sporting and musical occasions.
BBC Radio Resources' new vehicle has a fully-assignable Studer Vista 8 console, which has a special interface that provides an instant overview, as well as immediate access to critical controls. The vehicle also has flexible production, edit, studio and engineering areas.
A Riedel Communications Artist M matrix enables multiple outside source working.
Coach-building was carried out by specialist company W H Bence (Coachworks), based in Yate, near Bristol.
Tom Swan, dB's sales and marketing director, said: "At 13.5 metres, this mobile studio is about as big as you can have on the UK's roads, and brings the total number of OB vehicles of all types supplied in the last 20 months to 17."
