SOUNDDESK RAISES THE BAR WITH
GENELEC 8200 SERIES DSP MONITORING SYSTEM
— Facility adds Genelec’s acclaimed 8200 Series DSP Monitors
in surround sound configuration, assuring that multiple locations in
the control room are able to accurately
monitor the exact same multichannel mix —
NATICK, MA, March 26, 2008 — Sounddesk,
a three-year-old audio post production facility in Chicago, has purchased
and installed a Genelec 5.1 8200 Series DSP Monitoring System, consisting
of five Genelec 8250A monitors and a Genelec 7270A subwoofer. The Genelec
8200 Series Bi-Amplified Monitors employ the company’s proprietary
DSP (Digital Signal Processing), GLM™ (Genelec Loudspeaker Manager
software) and AutoCal™ (Automated Calibration software) technologies,
which together create a self-calibrating monitoring solution that both
guarantees accurate audio and ensures a steady-paced workflow.
Mark Bandy, President of Sounddesk, whose clients include
the award-winning public radio program World Vision Report as well as
national commercial campaigns, says he spent time comparing various
monitoring systems before choosing Genelec. “I knew I wanted to
be able to present the exact same mix to several locations in the control
room,” he explains. “I wanted the producer’s chair
to hear exactly what I hear in the engineer’s chair.” The
Genelec DSP system was precisely what he needed. The GLM software and
control network enhances the performance of Genelec 8200 series loudspeakers
and 7200 series subwoofers. It features adjustment of levels, distance
delays and flexible room response improvement equalization. “I
have to say I was skeptical at first,” Bandy states. “But
the Genelec GLM system works like a charm. I can load various presets
in a matter of seconds, moving the engineer’s mix and the ‘sweet
spot’ to any place in the room. The sound – the response
– just blew me away. Plus, Genelec is a name that discerning audio
clients know and trust.”
