Success and the Recall have over the years become inter-linked. It has been and is continually selected to mix Front of House for glamorous music events, such as, the Grammy Awards, the Eurovision Song Contest and the MTV Music Awards. Recall RN is not only the central ingredient in countless large scale music concerts, but earns it's keep daily in some of the world's most prestigious broadcast organisations and fixed installations, for example, the Sydney Opera House and the Opera De Paris. Originally introduced back in 1993 as a computer assisted live performance console, Recall quickly revolutionised the sound reinforcement industry in terms of defining a higher level of performance, control and versatility. With Recall, AMEK can proudly claim to be the pioneer of the first dedicated cue based automation system that truly won over the live performance engineer, providing innovative features and benefits previously only available to the studio environment. Continuous
refinement has ensured the console does not excel solely in live sound.
The added flexibility and production advantages Showtime automation
provides means it is well suited to a wide variety of applications.
Offering greater flexibility in management of both the console and outboard
equipment, Showtime reduces the number of routine tasks allowing
the engineer substantially more freedom to concentrate on the creative
aspect of his/her work. For instance, the ability to store and then
quickly bring back console settings for different acts/programmes is
made easy by using the Recall function, this is ideal when there is
a need to change sound scenes very quickly. These settings can be stored
to a single floppy disc and then used on any other Recall RN console
around the world to ensure a consistent performance every time. But what of the sound? AMEK's mastery of analogue circuitry is second to none and all modern day Recall's benefit from the RN treatment as standard. RN provides you with an audio path of exceptionally high quality via an Equaliser and Mic Pre designed by Mr. Rupert Neve. The added benefit of this is quite simply unrivalled sonic quality. Over half a century of audio artistry and experience has been harnessed to deliver precise control of gain settings as well as that celebrated warm and sweet sound like no other. Built to an exceptional standard of quality Recall RN comfortably withstands the heavy demands of touring and compact frame sizes make it an ideal choice for outside broadcast applications. Over 500 Recall consoles are in use daily around the world, which provides testimony to the high level of trust and confidence operators have in the console. So whether the application is mixing live in front of a hundred thousand people, broadcasting a sporting event across the globe or even producing a weekly game show, Recall RN really is the choice of discerning professionals.
