As well as a new vision switcher, production area and studio floor upgrade, the studio control room now houses a new MA Lighting system comprising of two grandMA2 light consoles, a MA NPU (Network Processing Unit), a MA onPC command wing and a grandMA2 fader wing. The installation was completed in only a few weeks and training was given for those in the lighting department who had never used the grandMA2 before.
"I was very happy with our lighting directors who just jumped in to the training and within two weeks were 'on-air' using the consoles," commented senior lighting director Stuart Anderson.
