Canada's Cgep de Jonquire and Calrec Take Five With a TV Studio Upgrade

C gep de Jonqui re, a public college in Qu bec, has upgraded its TV studio complex with five Calrec Brio consoles and a Dante IP network. The installation was commissioned by Calrec's Canadian partner True North AV and integrated by Applied Electronics.

Studio A in the college's Art et Technologie des M dias (ATM) department features a Brio 36 Duet console, while Studio B houses a Brio 36 Medley. Three Brio 12 consoles have been deployed for use across the campus. All five consoles are connected via a central Calrec router with Dante connectivity, enabling them to share I/O with third-party equipment from Yamaha and Sennheiser. Both main studio consoles are integrated with ATM's Ross Overdrive news automation system. The consoles also have access to a modular I/O box and a portable Br.IO unit.

C gep de Jonqui re is the largest public college in Qu bec and has offered media communications courses for more than five decades.

ATM of C gep de Jonqui re is the only public school in Qu bec that offers this level of professional training across the communications, television and film industries, said Alexandre Morin, Technician and Project Manager for cole Sup rieure en ATM. Over the years we have prepared thousands of students for professional broadcast careers in journalism, radio, marketing, television and film. Part of that success is our cohorts being able to study on industry-standard equipment, and for us that means Calrec as an obvious choice.

We're now able to centralize and share audio sources for all audio consoles and stage boxes, said Morin. Plus, the system works in standalone mode, which is essential for learning purposes. Our Brio 12 consoles can be used for the very first steps of audio console learning and can be utilised across C gep's campus. We can also mix C gep's concert hall Dante console sources independently in our classrooms.

The College's range of journalism, communications and media programs emphasises the complete broadcast chain from acquisition to delivery, said Kypros Christodoulides of True North AV. This investment in Calrec Brio consoles not only gives students access to broadcast-quality equipment, but its flexible Dante IP network also gives them the ability to adapt their needs to meet a range of production and training requirements.

With Calrec at the heart of C gep de Jonqui re's studio complex, students are well placed to meet the demands of the industry's fast evolving technical requirements in real-world environments, said Anthony Harrison, International Sales Manager at Calrec. Following C gep de Jonqui re's installation of 22 Type R modular IP mixing systems at the l' cole sup rieure en Art et technologie des m dias department last year, this installation further demonstrates the importance the college places on highly professional training and experience.
