INA purchases second SSL MT Plus console

The Paris-based Institut National de l'Audiovisuel (INA) has recently acquired its second Solid State Logic MT Plus digital audio console.
Established in 1975 with the aim of preserving France’s national audiovisual heritage, INA is a public organisation that collects audiovisual programmes, preserves and restores collections, offers up to date and efficient documentary services and improves access to images and sounds for film, television and the Internet.
Brigitte Vayron, head of INA’s postproduction sound studios, said: “We have been SSL customers for nearly 10 years and have always enjoyed good quality digital systems from the company and excellent after-sales support. Our first 40 fader MT Plus was installed last year and has brought great satisfaction to staff and customers alike. When the volume of work we were handling became too much for one high-end room, we decided to build a second one with identical equipment and capacity, hence the installation of our second MT Plus.”
Philippe Guerinet, SSL’s director of international sales, added: “It is great to have the opportunity to work closely with a team that has such expertise in the sound mixing process. We are delighted that they recognise the benefits and sound quality of SSL’s desks.”
Solid State Logic’s MT Plus is an advanced digital audio console designed specifically for multitrack recording, overdub, and mixing applications. It provides fast, easy, detailed and reliable operation and is suitable for use in a variety of studio installations. Its in-line design allows it to maximise the number of signal paths for any given console size. As a stand-alone system the MT Plus can handle over 400 inputs and outputs, or it can be networked with other SSL products allowing thousands of analogue and digital I/O.
Full dynamic automation of the MT Plus simplifies the mixing process and enables complete system reset in a fraction of the time required with analogue consoles.
