DLC Business Platform Installs eMotion LV1
VMT Enterprises installs comprehensive audio system in its Della Towers studio
When DLC Business Platform wanted a studio, which is at par with the best broadcasting studios in India, they reached out to VMT Enterprises to design and build an audio solution which could seamlessly handle live shows and broadcast the feed to a global digital audience.
The Studio at Della Towers is a state-of-the-art digital broadcasting studio which is responsible to develop fine pieces of recorded & live content for the DLC community. DLC is a Business Platform that focuses on six pillars - DLC Forums, DLC Knowledge, Brand Collaborations, YouTurn, DLC Genie and 19 Global Summits. The content includes masterclasses, interviews, fireside chats and seminars by global leaders in their respective fields.
The Waves eMotion LV1 was “impressive and perfect for the job” says Sai Prem, Mix Engineer, Della Leaders Club. The game changer with Waves is its ability to use studio plugins within a live mixer seamlessly with near zero latency. The Waves platinum bundle installed into the LV1 at Della allows the mix to engineer the ability to manage tasks effectively. The Q10, Vitamin, C4 and H-Reverb have become “staple plugins” at the studio
adds Sai.
The microphone inventory included 6 wireless channels from Sennheiser’s 500 series, E835 handheld microphones for internal communications & talkback with another 4 EW100 - IEM G4 in ear monitors. The PCR Room uses 2 pairs of KRK studio monitors one each for the broadcast & camera stations. The Sennheiser MK4 large diaphragm studio microphone is set-up for dubbing and audio recordings.
"The brief at Della was simple - they wanted a studio which is at par with the best broadcasting studios. We were able to create a great synergy with the eMotion LV1, the Waves Plugins and Sennheiser microphones to achieve the desired level of quality," says Jeff Mandot, National Sales Manager, VMT Enterprise.
“Waves offers the ability to customize the solution for specific needs” says Vicky Pereira, Application Engineer, VMT. For DLC, we chose the SoundGrid STG 1608 – local I/O that allows 16 input and 8 output channels. This was coupled with the Waves eMotion LV1-16 software which runs on the Waves Axis Proton Host. The proton server handles the audio processing on the unit. “The system is built on the foundation that it can be easily upgraded to grow with the studio. Further, Waves separation of the host & server units provides a robust backup In case of failure.” Adds Wicky. We added a FiT controller to retain the tactile feel of a fader, while using 3 Viewsonic Touchscreens for the mixer & plugin pages.
“At DLC we only work with the best and VMT has been our audio partner for nearly a decade now. Their knowledge and speed of execution is fantastic. They also have the best prices and incredible service support. Our needs were well understood by their team and the project has been successfully executed to make the DLC studio at par with the very best in the country” said, Jimmy Mistry, Founder & CEO, Della Leaders Club.
