Amek, one of the Harman International stable of manufacturers, renowned for their range of mixing consoles and high quality signal processors have retained a very long relationship with the directors of Sensible. Many of Ireland's leading studios, live venues and broadcasters use equipment from Amek. Some examples of the range are shown below. More detailed information is available on the Amek website (there's a link on our links page) , or from ourselves via email, post etc. just let us know.

 

Media 51 uses AMEK's traditional in-line mixing surface design to provide familiarity of operation, whilst providing a feature set, up to now unavailable on a console of this quality in this price range. The demand for surround formatted high quality audio material has never been greater. Film, TV, Video, DVD, DVD-A, Digital Radio and the Internet will require more and more programme material; all of which must be produced and mixed, or re-mixed, with present and future multichannel audio formats in mind. For that reason AMEK designed Media 51, a cost-effective all-analogue console solution for multi-format Music Recording, Post-Production and Broadcast environments. Multi-format bussing and true multi-format monitoring, including a fold-down matrix, supports current and envisaged cinema and multi-channel broadcast formats including Dolby Digital, Dolby Surround, DTS and Sony SDDS.

Media 51 comes equipped as standard with AMEK's Supertrue™ Automation which provides comprehensive fader and switch automation, Virtual Dynamics™ for software control of signal dynamics, Recall, External Machine Control and Visual FX™ for controlling selected external effects devices. Operating Supertrue™ is not only a logical and instinctive experience, it makes commercial sense, guaranteeing freelance producers/engineers are able to quickly drive the automation system and ensuring you don't have to compromise on functionality.

At AMEK we have thought long and hard about your requirements for multiformat audio…
