Visuals Switzerland receive order from TSR

Visuals Switzerland, a member of the Visual Impact Group, has won an order from the Télévision Suisse Romande (TSR) in Geneva to equip their six regional stations.
Visuals Switzerland will supply each with an Ultimatte 400 unit plus ReflecMedia reflective Chromatte screens and LED ring systems. They are also supplying some Snell & Wilcox Kudos IQ boards to provide remotely switched by-pass routing. The equipment is being installed as part of Swiss TV's re-branding for its news and current affairs transmissions.
In addition to supplying the equipment, Visuals Switzerland is providing operational and technical training, together with advice and assistance on the integration of the systems with the rest of the production chain in each TSR region.
Roland Fischer, chief engineer, Test, Measurements and New Technology Laboratory, Technology Laboratory at TSR, said: "We selected Visuals Switzerland to supply this equipment because they offer the best all-round service. We are installing this new equipment in our regional stations as part of our new-look station branding. It's a high-profile exercise and it is important that we get it right. In addition to having a wide range of equipment, Visuals Switzerland was able to offer very competitive pricing. The contract includes after sales training and technical support and, because they are located in Geneva, they are close at hand whenever we need them."
