M3 Purchases third 5.1 Genelec 8200 Active DSP Monitor System
posted:
As part of newly expanded operations, Voyager joins M3’s East Coast-based Eclipse and West Coast-based Horizon mobile recording trucks and features a Digidesign D-Command work surface, Mac® computers, Avid DSP, Avid MADI IO’s, a full complement of Waves signal processing, and, like the other M3 trucks, a mirror-image Genelec 8200 Series Active DSP Monitoring System.
“Our new facility (Voyager) is a high-track count, music/television broadcast audio mobile recording facility, but in a smaller-format vehicle,” stated Joel Singer, M3 Chief Engineer. “A bulk of our work is in Manhattan, where space is a consideration, yet we still needed to have a world-class, consistent monitoring environment, not only for our lead mixers John Harris and Jay Vicari to reference during recording/broadcast, but for the artists, producers and managers that come into our M3 trucks for playback. This is why we have standardized operations and have Genelecs in all three trucks. With Genelecs, ear fatigue is non-existent, and they deliver uncolored, accurate sound, providing us with the security of knowing exactly what we’re hearing on the night of the broadcast.”
With newly expanded operations, the most advanced remote recording facilities for music and live broadcast markets once again rely on Genelec Active DSP Monitors
The Genelec 8200 Series Bi-Amplified Active Monitors employ the company’s proprietary DSP (Digital Signal Processing), GLM™ (Genelec Loudspeaker Manager software) and AutoCal™ (Automated Calibration software) technologies, which together create a self-calibrating monitoring solution that both guarantees accurate audio and ensures a steady-paced workflow. This, combined with Music Mix Mobile’s long-time use of Genelec active monitors, made the Genelec DSP monitors an easy decision.
