ITV recently completed installation of a new 5.1 mixing room as part of their upgrade to HD. The upgrade also included AudioFile SCX upgrades for all of their existing dubbing suites. After looking at all the possible solutions, they decided to purchase an AMS Neve DMC Console to compliment their existing array of AMS Neve Consoles and AudioFiles.

The new studio makes extensive use of the DMC Star Command to control Protools via Ethernet and is used for 5.1 dubbing and also for 5.1 up-mixing live events such as football. An AMS Neve CineFile dubber has also been installed in the new studio to complement the DMCs 5.1 stem mixing capabilities.

The SCX upgrades have been purchased for their existing Logic 1 and Logic 3 Consoles which are still in daily use after more than 15 years service.
