GMM Media - Bangkok Thailand
GMM Media Public Company Ltd is the leading company in the fields of music, TV and radio production, publishing, show production and promotion, artist management, on-line content distribution, retail and radio broadcasting in Thailand. The stations Green Wave 106.5; Hot 91.5 FM, Chill 89 FM and 94 EFM are broadcast from studios on the 38th floor of the GMM Grammy Place Building in Bangkok. The studios required a full rebuild with new wall, floor and ceiling treatments, new furniture and of course a complete new technical system. GMM’s broadcast facility comprises seven on-air studios, five production, three sound booths, a live studio, audience room, MCR and media production rooms for FM, internet and mobile streaming. A large part of the project’s requirement was to deliver a system that is fully upgradable in the future, flexible and of the latest design. Using Klotz Digital DCII as the core of the system, and having detailed discussions with GMM Media on its requirements Telesto recommended a solution with fully-assignable and customisable controls for GMM Media. The Klotz DCII modular approach and the ability to customise the control surface with a choice of modules was important to GMM Media, as was the clean and simple presentation the system offers to its DJs. The GMM Media Klotz hardware comprises the latest version of the successful DCII range with upgraded modules and a revised console surface, which is believed to be the first in Asia. GMM’s Apisit Poonnaniti commenting on the project said ‘The partnership between Klotz Digital and Telesto Broadcast Solutions gave me confidence that whatever obstacles and problems might arise with such a complicated refurbishment of our facility, they would be handled with professionalism and dedication and we now have a brand new facility that will allow GMM Media to grow to meet the changing face of media broadcasting in Thailand.’ .

Smooth FM - Lagos Nigeria
In late 2008 we where asked if we could undertake the build and commissioning of a radio station in Lagos. The site was a double story house on Victoria Island and the building required complete refurbishment, installation of acoustically controlled studios and the addition of a transmitter tower in the garden. Our associate Acoustic Consultant (Arlab) and ourselves undertook to support the owner in realising a modern state of art digital broadcast facility comprising 2 On Air Studios, News Studio, Production Studio and Production Offices. Many design and planning iterations later and after a year of building approvals and construction the station was launched in November 2009. Early on in the project it was decided that all equipment would be purchased by Telesto and fully prefabricated in our facility in Singapore to ensure a trouble free and quick onsite build and commissioning phase. The total on site time was less than 3 weeks and the pre build proved to be a great success and will be a model for such systems in the future. More..
