TSL Products Acquires U.S.-based DNF Controls

Tuesday April 2, 2019. 04:38 PM , from Digital Pro Sound
Acquisition Provides Customers With A Comprehensive Control Ecosystem

Marlow, UK, April 2, 2019 – TSL
Products, a leading designer and manufacturer of
broadcast workflow solutions, announces the acquisition of DNF Controls,a U.S.-based
company offering a wide range of human-to-machine and machine-to-machine
solutions for more than 27 years. The joining together of these two companies
provides opportunity for TSL to expand its presence in the broadcast control
systems market for customers worldwide, and to offer audio and power solutions
locally to the Americas.

The TSL and
DNF teams will be exhibiting together at NAB 2019 in TSL’s new position in the
South Lower Hall, Stand SL4621. This will be the first opportunity for
customers to witness first-hand how TSL and DNF will together provide a
complete control platform that services the needs of customers from single
interfaces right through to advanced enterprise solutions.

DNF customers
in the U.S. region will have increased access to TSL’s complete product range,
offering audio and power solutions in addition to control systems, with the
ability to place orders and utilize its renowned support department out of
Northridge, CA. Meanwhile, TSL customers in the U.S. and around the world will
benefit from DNF’s dedicated hardware control panel and integration
capabilities, allowing them to add further functionality to their systems.

“We are
excited to work together as one with DNF Controls,” says Chris Exelby, Managing
Director, TSL Products. “Our values and mission are aligned in the strong
belief of empowering the end-user to have complete control of their system. We can
now accomplish this by providing the most modern, compatible, expandable system
available, and by offering a wide range of user-friendly controllers, panels
and virtual interfaces. Both TSL and DNF are built from strong engineering
roots and have a combined 60+ years in delivering systems for customers
worldwide.”

TSL Products
has significant success for its own broadcast control system, TallyMan, with
over 2,000 installations worldwide, and the U.S. is now TSL’s single largest
market across all product ranges. DNF is providing new opportunities to expand TSL’s
control offering, specifically MOS integration to work with news systems, SCTE
control, used for advert and regional content insertion and automated schedules
and rundowns for playout services. The joining of TSL and DNF also brings combined
development and configuration teams.

“DNF’s
relationship with TSL Products grew to an OEM agreement in May 2018, and we are
thrilled that it has now grown further into the companies fully uniting,” says
Dan Fogel, CEO and founder of DNF. “The acquisition will provide a wider
offering for our current customers while also introducing our products to new
markets globally.”

There will
be a period of transition to bring the DNF and TSL product families together,
with DNF’s California base becoming the TSL Inc. head office for the Americas.
However, TSL and DNF have a joined vision, which feeds into the overall control
platform product roadmap. Existing DNF and TSL customers will be able to
maintain and grow their existing systems, whilst TSL shifts to offering
complete solutions that may incorporate components from all product families to
provide the most powerful and cost-effective solution for the customer.
