Crystal has a re-designed user surface in an ultra-slim chassis and a new ergonomic handrest. The updated crystal base unit features power supply redundancy and optimized expansion slots for easy addition of I/O cards. crystal consoles offer seamless integration with leading radio automation systems, including ENCO, RCS, Dalet and Radiomax.
Also on show will be the mc²56 and the mc²66 audio mixing consoles in different frame sizes, providing features including advanced AutoMix, which enabled the production of 32 feeds from just two operators at the recent Brazil football event.
