HEBDEN BRIDGE, U.K. -- 8 March 2017 -- Signalling Calrec Audio's momentum in the fast-growing Hong Kong marketplace, LeSports Hong Kong is ready for future expansion with three new Calrec Summa digital audio consoles. A popular OTT sports video platform, LeSports Hong Kong chose the Summas for their wealth of features and extreme ease of operation.
"At LeSports Hong Kong, we are constantly striving to improve our programming and expand our multiformat content to attract new viewers," said Mr. P.K. Lee, LeSports Hong Kong. "The new Summa audio consoles are an important step in achieving these goals, because they make even the most demanding audio playout tasks very straightforward."
