KSC CORE Success At
BroadcastAsia2016

K

SC CORE, the broadcast control
and
monitoring
solution
envisioned
and
produced
by
international broadcast specialist BFE
Studio und Medien Systeme GmbH,
made a successful first appearance at
this year's BroadcastAsia.
The participation at the leading
broadcasting event in Singapore
marks the next step for KSC
CORE, which has already been
implemented in numerous
projects in the Asian region.
The small but welcoming
booth, which was part of the
German Pavilion, was very well
received by the show's audience
and saw a constant stream of
highly-qualified visitors during
all show days. In-depth talks
with potential partners opened
up a multitude of opportunities for
the product to further strengthen its
presence in the region.

"Broadcast Asia was an extremely
successful first show in the region
for BFE's KSC division," said Berend
Blokzijl, Senior Sales Manager for KSC
at BFE Studio und Medien Systeme
GmbH.

KSC Core offers broadcast control
and monitoring

"Making sure we were introduced
to the right potential partners, we
had many constructive meetings and
feel we made a good entrance for our
KSC CORE Control systems into South
East Asia. Now we will spend ample
time and efforts on building strong
relationships with our contacts to
serve the region ideally."
BFE and KSC CORE thanked all
the visitors for their presence
and successful talks during the
event.
KSC Core is hailed as
the next generation of
the KSC product line. It
offers
workflow-optimised
functionalities for mobile
production, studio, control
room and playout centre.
Based on many years of
experience
in
product-neutral
control and monitoring of broadcast
components, KSC Core defines the

Medien Systeme at BroadcastAsia

milestone for future controller
solutions.
KSC Core allows to flexibly respond
to broadcast production, to efficiently
monitor components in the controller
system and to quickly configure new
parameters in the system.
Intuitive user interfaces, fast
configuration
and
a
system
architecture tailored to future audio
and video technologies make KSC Core
the most powerful controller system
worldwide.

Custom Consoles Reports Surge
In Demand For Techical Furniture

C

ustom Consoles has reported a
major increase in demand for
studio furniture with substantial
new orders from customers in the
broadcast and wider media publishing
sectors. These follow on from a highly
successful CABSAT show in Dubai
where the MediaPost portable monitor
mount made its Middle East market
debut.
"Confidence
throughout
the
broadcast media industry is at an
all-time high," says Custom Consoles'
Business Director Graham Buchanan.
"Most of the orders we are seeing are
from established networks investing
in technical upgrades or expansion
of existing infrastructure rather than
new-builds. One of the largest is for 40
desks which have been commissioned
by a major broadcast systems
integrator on the European mainland.
We are not at liberty to name the client
yet but this contract alone amounts to
some 150 metres length of Module-R.
"One of the UK's largest television

production facilities has ordered
Custom Consoles desks plus MediaWall
monitor display mounts for a dualstudio project which is scheduled to
complete before October. The client
already has our Module-R desks,
tailored to accommodate its specific
requirements, and MediaWalls. We are
also installing a Module-R desk and
MediaWall for a television channel run
by a major UK publishing house.
"These projects follow on from
the recent completion of three
Module-R technical control desks
plus a MediaWall for one of Europe's
busiest financial trading houses where
they will be used to create news and
comment for broadcasters around the
world.
"It is perhaps stretching a point to
describe CERN as a broadcaster though
its pioneering research continues
to be the subject of many television
and radio programmes. But CERN
too puts its trust in Custom Consoles
technical control furniture. We recently

completed a large installation of our
ultra-robust SteelBase desks for the
CERN Large Hadron Collider beauty
(LHCb) experiment at the experimental
site on the Franco-Swiss border.
"The CERN contract included the
design and installation of desks for
the LHCb main control room and the
LHC cryogenics control room on site.
Largest of the two suites is the main
control room. This has been equipped
with an 8.85 metre wide oval-shaped
SteelBase central control desk with 19

desk bays. Each bay incorporates three
monitor display mounts (two in front,
one overhead). Low-level storage
units for computer equipment are
incorporated at the mid-left section of
the desk."
"Our focus now is on the IBC
exhibition in Amsterdam where we
will be promoting examples of our
established product range including
Module-R, the EditOne flat-packable
desk plus the recently introduced
MediaPost."
