Mackie launch specialist Broadcast Division

Mackie Designs Inc have launched a new division - Mackie Broadcast Professional - dedicated to serving the needs of the expanding broadcast/post production market.
Mackie believe the recent integration of Soundscape International, after the acquisition of Sydec BV – a company with a reputation in the fields of broadcasting and post production – will put them in pole position in a competitive market and further enlarge their customer base.
Mackie have long acknowledged that the world of broadcast, post production and pro-audio has particular needs and issues that differ from those of Mackie’s traditional studio market, and so justify a specialist team to serve them.
Keith Olsen, Corporate Director, Global Recording Market and Product Development at Mackie Designs Inc, said: "Soundscape have earned a great reputation among high-end users as a powerful recording system with a remarkable track record for reliability.”
Mr Olsen added: "For many years, Soundscape have been the DAW (digital audio workstation) of choice for professionals that have had the courage to chose the best system rather than the common one. If you watched 'Walking With Dinosaurs', you heard Soundscape. It was even used recently for Andrew Lloyd Webber’s West End musical 'The Beautiful Game'."
