Dedicated to bringing calm to live television

We are driven to transform how studios are built and run, making the journey from first concept to first broadcast a smooth one. At newsalix we believe the best television feels effortless to the viewer precisely because the engineering behind it was planned with care.

Guided by our fervent belief in rehearsal, redundancy and clear communication, we help newsrooms and production companies create live programmes that stay on air, stay on time and stay on message, whatever the day throws at them.

Every crew is different, yet the same principles hold in every gallery. We respect the people on the floor, document what we install and leave your team fully able to run the studio without us.

General questions

  • Can you work with the equipment we already own?

    Yes. We start by auditing your current cameras, switchers, mixers and lighting, then integrate or replace only what genuinely limits your output.

  • Do you support news programmes as well as live shows?

    We design for daily news bulletins, long-form interviews and large live entertainment shows, each with its own rundown pressure and failover needs.

  • Will our crew be trained to run the studio?

    Every installation ends with hands-on rehearsals and written guides, so your operators can run the studio confidently without us.

Orders & delivery

  • How long does a typical studio project take?

    Single-discipline packages are usually delivered in two to four weeks. Full studio fit-outs are scheduled around your transmission calendar.

  • How do quotes and discounts work?

    Prices shown are starting points with current launch discounts. Send us your brief and we will confirm a fixed quote in writing.

  • Can I change the scope after requesting a quote?

    Of course. Packages are modular, so you can add or remove elements before the work is confirmed.
