April 20, 2007 - Redmond, Washington, USA – Avitech International Corporation, a supplier of
multi-image display processors announced today that Colorado Studios has purchased their industryleading
multiviewers for their recently upgraded HD production trucks.
Colorado Studios is a highly sophisticated Denver-based facility for SD and HD video production, with
services including post production, studio production, mobile TV, on-location production, computer
graphics, and other services such as; video & audio fiber-optic distribution. Under the agreement,
Colorado Studios will outfit their state-of-the-art mobile production facilities with 55 MCC-8004U
multi-image processors. The trucks will be used to produce and cover a wide variety of live events.
Avitech’s multiviewer modules will be used to visually monitor a wide array of incoming signals
integrated seamlessly with a variety of production equipment. Signals are routed to the Avitech
Multiviewers via a QuStream (Pesa) Cheetah routing switcher, which is being used along with a Grass
Valley Kalypso production switcher, an EVS super slo-mo video server, and Grass Valley LDK 8000
multi-format cameras. Avitech’s MCC-8004 series also interfaces with ImageVideo’s UMD / Tally
system for tally display on each channel.
“We chose the Avitech Multiviewers, because the picture is amazingly good,” comments Phil Garvin,
President, COO, and General Manager of Colorado Studios and HDNet. “It's obvious that Avitech has
spent time and money on the video quality as well as the splitting and positioning. For hidef this is
essential."

industry,” states Bill Gray, Avitech’s Western Region Sales Manager. “Colorado Studio’s expansion is
another example of how well suited our products are for these types of environments, which demand
extremely high performance in a limited amount of space.”
