Showmaster: Indosiar TV Station Counts on grandMA2

.

Indosiar Visual Mandiri (Indosiar) is an Indonesian national television station, operating in West Jakarta since 1994 that employs around 1,550 people and is a member of PT. Elang Mahkota Teknologi Indonesia (Emtek) - Indonesia's second largest media group. Currently, Indosiar is fully owned by Emtek’s subsidiary, Surya Citra Media.

The station has a strong focus on cultural programming, such as a programmes dedicated to specific types of performance like wayang puppet theatre.  Recently it has been broadening its horizons with reality shows, talk programmes and drama series’. For those reality shows and singing competitions a highly reliable and powerful lighting control solution was needed – a grandMA2.

Lighting Designer Hadi Suroso specified a grandMA2 light:  “Having used the console for the first time during the 2011 Southeast Asian Games in Palembang, it has never left me! It works exactly the way I work. Coming from other consoles it was very easy for me to adjust the grandMA2 to my needs, even though other programmers will often want to use it differently. Having an ever growing user group here in Indonesia together with support from Galva and the MA office in Singapore I know that help is never far away! What else could I wish for?”

The equipment was delivered by PT Galva in Jakarta.
