Dome Productions has integrated Calrec's Artemis consoles into its flagship Titan and Empire OB trucks.
   

The upgrade reflects Dome’s commitment to delivering unmatched audio experiences across a spectrum of live events for major sports leagues including the NHL, NBA, and MLB as well as government entities, eSports, and news broadcasting.

Roberto da Conceicao Junior, Senior Technical Manager and Titan and Empire’s Project Lead, said: "We chose Calrec because of its reputation as the market-leading audio console provider for North American live events. The Artemis is a brilliant console. Its ease of integration and workflow compatibility with freelance crews and clients were a key factor in our decision. We also like its compact design, flexible routing, customisable control surface, integrated processing, and the way it easily integrates with Calrec's Hydra2 network, which we’re using in both of the trucks."

The setup of both trucks uses a ST2110 IP core for routing, powered by an Evertz NATX setup. The Artemis core is composed of an Artemis, with Bluefin 2 high-density signal processing, 64 multi-layer faders and Stagebox I/O, connected using Calrec’s Hydra2 network with an Evertz audio gateway for conversion to AoIP. "Hydra2 lets us expand and integrate additional I/O devices that are suitable for both small and large productions. It ensures that we can adapt to customer needs without significant overhaul," Conceicao added.

Kypros Christodoulides, Calrec Product Specialist at True North, said: "Dome Productions is no stranger to the advanced capabilities of Calrec consoles, which is why the company was keen to install Artemis in its state-of-the-art Titan and Empire OB trucks. Sports broadcasters in North America expect the highest quality productions, they want to know these trucks have powerful audio setups that can excel in fast-paced sports and news environments."
