“Harman saw a great opportunity in Platinum Hit as it is caters to our core customer base. We really believed in the concept of the show – musicians, songwriters, producers and live sound industry professionals will truly enjoy it as song writing and producing music is the foundation of our business,” stated Nick Owen, Sales Director, JBL Professional, who worked side-by-side with Walter in formatting the technical aspects of Platinum Hit.
“With Jewel hosting, professional, well-known judges and a reservoir of talent and potential in the contestants, the show has major credibility and will definitely provide great entertainment, as well as great sound to viewers.”
Combining the different audio environments on the show presented a serious challenge Walter had to overcome.
“AKG, JBL and Soundcraft allowed us to bring in the equipment that would not only sound great, but would also connect all aspects of the show, whether recording, performing or broadcasting,” stated Walter. “Every space on set has to be ready and able to function correctly, be taken down, reworked, perfected and sound amazing in no more than 15 minutes notice of any kind.”
“Harman solutions eclipse other companies in the industry and we can safely rely on their customer service, and equipment in general, to help us put on a great season.”
