Julius Wang, PTS and Ken Kimura, DPA Microphones
Taiwan - DPA's Taiwanese distributor IX Technology, part of the Linfair Group, has supplied more than 130 DPA microphones to Public Television Service (PTS), a division of the Taiwan Broadcasting System (TBS). The order includes large quantities of 4006-TL omnis, 4011-TL cardioids, 4015-TL wide cardioids and 4017 shotgun mics, as well as seven 5006 surround microphone kits (five matched 4006-TLs and accessories) with seven S5c surround mounts.

The new mics will be deployed across PTS' new HDTV facilities in Taipei, including four new TV studios, two new HDTV OB trucks and an audio recording truck dedicated to mastering in surround. A major part of their use will be for recording classical music and opera performances at live venues such as the National Theatre and Concert Hall.

PTS' supervising audio engineer Julius Wang comments: "I'm extremely happy with PTS' additions to its existing DPA stock. DPA microphones exhibit natural and detailed sound with an extended dynamic range."

"Having known Julius for years and seen his uncompromising approach to audio production, I am very pleased that PTS have expanded their DPA tools with our finest microphone solutions," adds Ken Kimura, DPA's regional sales director, Asia Pacific. "I am confident the new additions will enable PTS to take their surround content to the next level."
