MCI contracted to Modernize HR HF-broadcast complex in Frankfurt.

In April 2012, the Studio Hamburg Media Consult International (MCI) GmbH had been commissioned by the HR broadcasting service (Hessischer Rundfunk) to modernize four broadcast complexes in Frankfurt / Main including the option to modernize a fifth.
The broadcasting complexes, which were taken in use in the year 1999, continuously met the limits of today’s technology and functionality. Therefore a replacement and a conversion to current technology was unavoidable. MCI, as the general contractor, is responsible for the supply, the installation, the initial operation, the documentation as well as for the trainings on the new equipment, which is applied, in the four new broadcast complexes.

The HR decided to use the SERIX audio mixer (Mandozzi). A total of 16 audio mixers are connected by a redundant designed IDEA audio matrix of the same fabricant. In each broadcast complex a Draco tera KVW matrix is applied (IHSE). The already existing broadcast automation system (d’accord) is still used and interfaces are accordingly adjusted.
Each complex exists of two one-man studios, a production area, a support area and a multifunctional area. The four complexes are almost identically equipped, whereby flexibility in the editorial process is explicitly enhanced.
During the whole modernization, the broadcast of the programs hr1, hr2, hr3 and hr INFO continues on-site, so that the modernization can be effected in two stages of construction. Before the installation, each broadcast complex is gut.
All furniture is customized and fabricated by the MCI workshops
The first two broadcasting complexes will be presented to the HR for test operation in February 2013, the two following presumably in March 2014.
Studio Hamburg Media Consult International (MCI) GmbH is a systems and trading house operating internationally in the field of professional broadcasting and media technology. Using its own in-house resources, MCI provides consulting, planning and construction services for TV, radio, media and event projects throughout the world.
