Company Testimonials
A selection of customer views on Calrec.
| "Our announcers can go from a whisper to a scream at the whack of a tennis racket, or the stroke of a golf putter. There is no substitute for headroom, and for that reason alone, the Calrec is the console I’d most want to have in the truck. The other features just make it all the more desirable. " For example, having audio-summing groups allows me to group like elements for processing and distribution, like the commentators, or the sound effects or the playbacks. "Having aux sends from everything, including the groups, allows me to feed these groupings to others with one knob instead of searching out the individuals, for example sound effects to commentators’ IFB mix. "Small module footprints allow us the ability to handle a show with big demands in a very tight real-estate market. "Finally VCA’s allow me to isolate parts of a group, and sub-control them without affecting the group. For example the crowd mics, which are part of the sound effects group. We may have 6 to 8 crowd mics in addition to all of the microphones capturing the sounds of the event." Bob Dixon, NBC Olympics, USA |
| "When we are choosing a desk the first thing we look for is the Calrec logo! "We see probably 75 to 100 different freelance operators every year. Some work on the desk as part of a package for several months at a time, some just do a single show. Calrec’s range works well for us not only because the operation is very intuitive but also you can configure the desk to do just about anything you want to do within the series capability. "Flexibility is a prime concern and this is where Calrec scores." George Hoover, NEP, USA |
| "Most of our clients expect to see a Calrec console as part of our equipment specification. Calrec have become the benchmark for broadcast consoles in trucks, particularly for live sports coverage. They have a reputation for build quality and long-term reliability as well as excellent audio performance." Mark Cattell, Arena TV, UK |
| "Calrec desks are good for sports programming because of their reliability, flexibility and large number of separate outputs. Calrec are willing to listen to the customer’s needs and they offer excellent service back-up." Richard Mill, Visions, UK |
