Prodigy OB Truck
P

roshow Broadcast, a leading
broadcast
and
media
production company based in
Vancouver, British Columbia, has
upgraded its Prodigy HD truck
with Calrec Audio's Brio console.
"The term 'revolutionary' might
be overused in our industry, but
the Brio is revolutionary in many
ways. There really is nothing
else like it for the price point
- a truly compact console that
doesn't make any compromises
on broadcast feature set," said
Tim Lewis, President, Proshow
Broadcast.
"When we heard Calrec would
be launching the Brio, we knew it
would be perfect for our Prodigy
upgrade, especially after we

sent three highly respected
A1s to the Calrec booth at the
NAB Show to take a look at it.
All of them said it would be a
significant improvement over
our old desk."
Lewis said that with a Calrec
Omega installed in Proshow's
largest truck for five years, he
was familiar with the "quality
and performance of the Calrec
product".
Prodigy is used to covering a
wide range of Pac-12 Network
events,
including
college
football,
volleyball,
and
basketball, as well as other
