KBS Installs Multiple Horus in KBS Hall

The hall’s recording facilities have traditionally been based around an SSL 9000 K super analog console and the quality of the audio conversion has been an important factor.  The installation of the three Horus units is the result of extensive testing by Ko Moon Ahn and Lee Dong Hoon; the main engineering team from the hall.  As is often the case, the workflow pattern is gradually changing to doing more of the mixdowns in Pyramix. “We really appreciate the improvements in A/D and D/A conversion with Horus. This combined with Pyramix is the ideal solution for the recordings we make in the KBS Hall.”, commented Ko Moon Ahn.
