Azerbaijan project calls for Custom Consoles
Published: MEA
AZERBAIJAN: A major new broadcast studio project in Azerbaijan has called for six Custom Consoles Module-R desks and Media Wall monitor display mounts. The furniture, which was prefabricated in the UK before being shipped, includes two video production control desks, two video editing desks, two audio control desks and two Media Wall monitor display mounting systems.
The two Media Walls were shipped in compact form as vertical columns and 2.66m wide horizontal beams. They were assembled on site and equipped with monitor panels to display camera, VTR and auxiliary sources plus two larger screens assigned to preview and programme. Each Media Wall is positioned directly in front of a video production desk.
Both video production desks are designed for simultaneous use by a camera input controller seated at left, graphics assistant (centre) and vision mixer (right). Each desk is structured as a three-bay in-line 4.66m unit. Four camera control panels are set into the left-hand bay plus a Sony video production switcher in the centre bay. Two desktop-level equipment bays with space for a total of eight single-rack unit equipment chassis are mounted along the rear left bay. Two additional 4 + 4U pods are positioned at the rear of the central bay.
Each of the two video editing desks is configured for use by up to two operators. The desks are of rectangular design, 2.6m wide, with two 3U high desktop equipment pods. An additional Sony video production switcher panel and a central Sony video editing controller are also included. Two TV Logic video monitor panels are located on the equipment pods. An additional monitor is mounted on the left-hand bay, suspended from an Ergotron height-adjustable and angle-adjustable arm.
The two audio control desks are single-bay designs measuring 1.58m wide by 1.2m front-to-back. Each houses a Soundcraft 24-channel audio production console, a 6U high desktop equipment pod and a 24-inch monitor display on an Ergotron adjustable arm.
All six desks are finished in beech veneer with grey Marmoleum desktop worksurfaces.
