Director Philip Murphy said: "With our background in live sound production and installation, we immediately perceived the benefits of Aviom's distributed audio networks and personal monitor mixers for use in theatres, studios and houses of worship. This is an exciting, innovative and cost-effective product range, bringing a new generation of high quality digital snake systems to the Asian market."
Coda supplied a 64-channel digital snake system comprised of four AN-16i input modules, four AN-16o output modules and an SB-1 system bridge for the MTV Asia Awards in Singapore in February. The system, which was used as a multicore from front-of-house to the broadcast and recording locations, was selected by Joe Gan, director of production specialist The Show Company. "Our long-term relationship with the MTV Asia Awards has familiarized us with the high technical standards demanded, so venturing into the world of digital multicore systems was not to be taken lightly," says Gan. "Having investigated what was available on the market, we decided the Aviom A-Net system had the bandwidth, sonic transparency and number of inputs and outputs required to meet those demands. Coupled with a Yamaha PM1D desk, the Aviom system allowed us to remain in the digital domain at virtually every stage of the broadcast and recording process, whilst using inexpensive Cat 5 cabling. Aviom has created a brilliant product - lightweight, simple to set up and natural sounding."
16 A-16 personal monitor mixing systems have also been supplied as part of a church installation in Singapore, by contract specialist Electronics and Engineering.
