European cultural broadcaster ARTE has strengthened its long-standing relationship with Grass Valley, selecting the company’s LDX 135 cameras and Creative Grading solution as part of its move from SDI/1080i to a native IP-based 1080p production infrastructure with UHD capability.
The project, delivered in collaboration with Broadcasting Center Europe (BCE) as system integrator, modernized two ARTE studios — one dedicated to News and another for general productions. The upgrade delivers a fully native IP environment based on SMPTE ST 2110, ensuring interoperability, scalability, and operational flexibility across ARTE’s production workflows.
At the heart of the new workflow is Grass Valley’s LDX Creative Grading solution with the latest CGP 500 grading panel. Together, they provide ARTE’s operators and shaders with intuitive, real-time control over image quality, color balance, and camera matching across the studios.
BCE, acting as system integrator, guided ARTE through the technical and operational transition to IP, ensuring smooth deployment, network integration, and end-to-end performance optimization.
With nine LDX 135 cameras installed across ARTE’s News and general production studios, the broadcaster now benefits from improved operational efficiency, seamless IP integration, and enhanced creative flexibility, enabling consistent, high-quality visual storytelling across all productions.
