Protec Group Purchase Absen LED, ClayPaky Xtylos, Newton Outline

Protec has upgraded its video capabilities globally with the purchase of Absen PL2.5mm indoor panels and PL3.9mm W outdoor panels for all branches in the UK, UAE, and KSA. These screens have an innovative side lock design, which means they can be installed flat or with a curve. It has also invested in the NovaStar NovaPro UHD Jr All-in-One Controllers and the NovaStar VX6s control boxes. With screens based in Birmingham, Dubai, and Riyadh, they can assist clients across UK, Europe, Middle East, and Africa with both large scale and intimate video solutions -- just in time for EURO 2020!

This recent investment is in addition to the new ClayPaky Xtylos and Sharpy Plus the lighting departments have received. The Birmingham branch has already received its order of the ClayPaky Xtylos. Protec Dubai has already debuted the Xtylos and was first globally to get on board with the new technology, which is predicted to be a lighting designer favorite, the company says.

The Dubai audio team have been investing in more powerful solutions to meet increased networking and processing demands which led to them being first in the Middle East region to adopt the "world's most advanced" Outline Newton 16 + 8 processor. Protec has also invested in the Waves SoundGrid Extreme Server, more Shure Axient gear with Showlink capabilities and increased its stock of Red-Net Dante A8R, D16 units, Luminex 16XTs, L-Acoustics Syva, L-Acoustics X15s and L-Acoustics X8s, ADX1 Shure beltpacks, and Sennheiser 2050 in ear monitors.
