Calrec Audio Unveils BVE Lineup

Calrec Audio has announced the products it will exhibit at BVE 2016 next month.

Apollo and Artemis V4.0
V4.0 is the latest software enhancement for Calrec's Apollo and Artemis consoles and will make its debut at the London show. It builds on the software and hardware upgrades launched in V3.0 last year, offering more features.

The new features include send levels on faders that allow the user to change the path level indicators on the fader to aux send level, admin-level protection of bus widths that are stored in the show memory for quick and easy changes, and meter highlighting when a fader is touched.

V4.0 is available for all consoles with the Concord processor upgrade.

Waves SoundGrid Integration
Calrec Audio will demonstrate an integrated Waves SoundGrid solution for its Hydra2 platform of consoles. This integration uses a brand new SoundGrid interface module on Calrec's Hydra2 network. The module provides a direct connection between Hydra2 and the Waves SoundGrid network, allowing simple integration and introducing fewer parts into the chain for lower latency and greater reliability.

Customers can control Waves software, such as MultiRack, from the integrated touch display in Apollo and Artemis surfaces, which allows direct control of Waves plugins from the mix position. This provides Calrec users with instant access to the range of Waves plugins and broadcast tools, such as the new UM225/226 stereo-to-surround upmixers and WNS noise reduction tools, as well as a variety of creative processors.

All Calrec/SoundGrid I/Os benefit from the Hydra2 feature set, which includes source and destination protection, Hydra Patchbays, aliases, access rights, and the inherent redundancy of the Hydra2 network.

Jim Green, International Sales Manager, Calrec Audio, said: "We always look forward to BVE. It's a very important forum for us to demonstrate our newest innovations to a local audience, and it's also a great opportunity for us to have relaxed, meaningful interaction with our customers and partners."
