Calrec Audio Unveils New Artemis Console

Calrec Audio has announced that it will launch a new Artemis console at NAB 2017, Booth C3118.

Artemis Ray has 456 fully featured input channels and can handle up to 72 faders. Via a new fader/monitor panel, Artemis Ray sports a new surface layout that allows more faders in a reduced surface area. The panel is the same width as a standard Artemis fader panel and includes eight full-size faders to give operators more control and a higher fader density in a smaller footprint. Artemis Ray's 72-fader layout fits into 2,372mm (93.39 inches) of space.

Capable of operating at multiple sample rates, at 48kHz the Artemis Ray provides up to 456 channel-processing paths, 128 programme buses, 64 IFB/track outputs, and 32 auxiliaries. The console also features a second compressor/limiter in each channel, more than 70 minutes of assignable delay, and three independent APFL systems for multiple operator use.

Dave Letson, Calrec Audio's vice president of sales, said: "We work closely with our customers and listen to their requirements. In situations where space is at a premium, like in OB trucks, we understand that a high fader density is not only desirable, but essential. Artemis Ray provides the same functionality as previous models, but with more channels and faders in the same footprint. It's a very powerful combination."

"By making the new monitor panel available on all our existing Artemis models, we're giving our customers access to all of this increased functionality," he added. "Artemis has proved a very popular and reliable workhorse all over the world, and the new Artemis Ray adds even more value."
