MW Video develop new height adjustable edit desk

MW Video Systems are delighted to announce the launch of their brand new product, the height adjustable edit desk.  After listening to, then acting upon feedback from customers, MW Video have created the new desk, to join the standard range of edit desks.  With the aim being to help create healthy working practices for media studio users, the electrically-operated desk can be raised to allow standing at the workstation, then at a touch of a button, lowered for the seated position.

The new product line comes as MW Video were recently awarded the contract to supply 3 height adjustable edit desks for the audio department of a gaming company.

The 3 edit desks will each be situated within their own studio with specialised AV equipment. Surround sound speakers and mixers, as well as supplied Novus monitors arms are provided to house 2 display screens per desk.  To maintain tidy cable management whenever new equipment is added,  4 cable entries have been spaced evenly across the desks surface and a cable basket is located between the front and rear courtesy panels.

As with all standard edit desks,  power supplies with 6 or 8 output mains distribution unit in either 13amp or IEC are installed within the cable basket.  In additon, a trunking strip is located on the side of one of the actuated legs, to allow the cable to be brought down to the floor and then safety added to the electrical mains without being seen.

The height adjustment factor was a necessary requirement for the client, as employees would be spending approximately 7-8 hours per day at each workstation. Allowing sit-stand routines to be controlled individually by the user, and with no restrictions on the number of height adjustments, a healthy working environment is achieved, and all at the touch of a button.

Black powder-coated with a black Poivre Roc coloured laminate finish, the edit desks look sleek and beautiful, making any studio environment look like a world class working environment.

See a demonstration of the new height adjustable edit desk at the MW Video stand M30 at B.V.E London from 28^th February until 2^nd March, and download the MW Video edit desk leaflet for more information.

Production desks bound for prominent school

At our factory last week, 3 custom designed consoles were being manufactured for a prominent film, television and games school. MW Video Systems were awarded the contract to provide furniture for the National Film and Television School, based in Beaconsfield.

The three consoles are required for their  Main Production Gallery. A central Production desk, Audio and Lighting Desk and a Sound Control console  all have fully integrated equipment for ease of access and hardware stability.  With marmoleum worktop finishes to the desks, a vision mixer has been inset into the main production console as well as desktop pods added at the left and right hand corners.

Once installed, the consoles will be used by students of the school, allowing them hands on experience working with professional equipment.

New edit desks at the University of Leeds

MW Video Systems have recently provided 5 edit desks at the University of Leeds for the School of Media and Communication department.

One 2400mm wide desk and three 1800mm wide desks from the MW Video standard product range were provided.  The desks, complete with mains distribution units, are finished with black nosing and volcanic ash marmoleum worktops.

The School of Media and Communication is one of the top departments in the country for the study of communication, media and culture. With investment in new facilities needed, a specially refurbished state-of–the-art building at the heart of the Leeds campus was created. This prompted the school to look for new furniture for their new media suites.  After visiting the MW Video Systems website, contact was made and the standard edit desk range proved to offer an affordable, yet high quality solution.

“We found MW Video to meet our needs perfectly. The quality of the desk solution is first class and I would happily recommend MW Video to anybody wanting cost-effective specialist broadcast furniture”, praised Andrew Thorpe, School General Manager.
