Sep 2, 2008 12:16 PM
Token Creek Mobile Television is upgrading its Hiawatha OB truck to HD, which includes the addition of a 56-fader Calrec Omega console.
Token Creek Mobile Television near Madison, WI, is installing a 56-fader Calrec Omega console in its Hiawatha OB truck, which is being upgraded to all-HD operation. Hiawatha's sister truck, Varsity, already carries a Calrec Sigma with Bluefin console.
Calrec’s Bluefin High-Density Signal Processing makes the console a popular choice for OB trucks because it provides the power and flexibility to configure complex shows in a compact footprint. The Omega features 160 channel-processing paths packaged as 48 stereo and 64 mono channels, allowing up to 24 full 5.1 surround channels. Omega also features Calrec's TFT metering capabilities to offer maximum control of the assignable system.
