Sweetwater constructs new HD truck

Los Angeles-based Sweetwater Digital Productions is currently in the process of outfitting a new HDTV production truck designed to accommodate large-scale concerts, awards ceremonies and other high-profile entertainment events. Although some of the equipment choices for the 53ft unit are still being finalized, the Sweetwater team has settled on the Studer Vista 8 digital mixing console.

The Vista 8's customizable I/O frames and comprehensive redundancy capabilities were both key factors in Sweetwater’s decision. Sweetwater’s new desk employs 20 rack-mounted Studer D21m I/O frames and two new SCore Live DSP cores — one for the console and another for the massive 1024 x 816 router.
