RTV Montenegro Comes out Singing and Dancing with First Install of Multi-Stage Calrec Audio Upgrade

Tuesday March 5, 2019. 05:31 PM , from Digital Pro Sound
HEBDEN BRIDGE, UK, MARCH 5, 2019 — RTV Montenegro debuted
its new Calrec-equipped HD OB 6 in February
to broadcast Montevizija, a national
singing competition to select its entrant to the popular Eurovision Song
Contest 2019.

Dejan Vujović, Chief Technology Officer, said, “This was a
particularly important production for us because it was RTV’s first stereo
television transmission and it was distributed in HD. The sound quality was
superb, and that’s due in large part to the new Artemis Light console we have
installed. The Artemis is incredibly easy to learn and operate.”

The new OB unit is expandable on both sides and is equipped with 13
Sony cameras, though it’s cabled for up to 17. It also benefits from EVS Max
servers, a Sony vision mixer, Avid graphics, a KSC control system as well as
Calrec’s Hydra 2 audio networking capabilities. The OB unit has been designed
to meet major sports rights holders’ production standards.

RTV Montenegro is a national public broadcaster that consists of
three TV channels and two radio channels. Its content reaches 99-percent of
Montenegro’s population. The Artemis installation was handled by systems
integrator BFE with the sale concluded by Calrec partner, Kompani DigiTV. 

Vujović adds, “Hydra 2 was one of the key advantages that we saw
with Calrec. We have a stage box in HD OB 6, with internal audio sources
plugged into that. Hydra 2 is used for all routing, including the audio that
passes through two additional external stage boxes. They are connected via fibre
and instantly appear on the network, completely transparently, making life for
our audio engineers much easier. We will be installing further Calrec equipment
this year as we continue the upgrade of both our television and radio studios.”

“It’s no accident that our consoles, including Artemis, are used
widely in outside broadcasting. The Artemis, in particular, was the perfect fit
for RTV Montenegro because of its superior sound quality, ease of use and
flexibility. It’s already been used on a major production and is ready for more
high-profile work. We look forward to continuing to build upon this great
partnership,” said Mike Reddick, International Sales Manager for Calrec.
