Slovenia – The national television broadcaster RTV Slovenia recently completed a major studio lighting upgrade, installing Elation KL Series fixtures in its newly redesigned Studio 3 in Ljubljana. The project marks a milestone for Elation’s presence in the Slovenian broadcast market.
The installation, delivered by Elation’s local distribution partner Sync AV earlier in the year and integrated by KSL Sound and Light Studio, includes 24 KL Panel LED softlights and 29 pole-operated KL Fresnel 6 CW PO LED wash lights.
To ensure the best possible match for the broadcaster’s needs, Sync AV presented the Elation products in live demos and competitive shootouts, testing them directly in the studio environment.
Sync provided Elation units for extended on-site testing, allowing the broadcaster to experience their output, versatility, and build firsthand. This rigorous process resulted in the selection of the award-winning KL Series, which strikes a balance between premium quality and competitive pricing. All softlights in the refurbished Studio 3 are now Elation.
“Our goal was to find a top-calibre solution that offered reliability and value,” said Boštjan Konič, CEO of KSL Studio, a Ljubljana-based provider of sound, lighting and multimedia systems. “The Elation KL Series not only met but exceeded our expectations, providing outstanding light output and colour quality with real operational flexibility.”
Designed for light-critical and noise-sensitive environments, such as on-camera productions, the KL Panel is a full-colour-spectrum LED softlight optimised for film and television. Featuring a 6-in-1 RGBWLC (Red, Green, Blue, White, Lime, Cyan) LED array, it delivers up to 24,000 field lumens, a high CRI of 95, and variable colour temperature from 2000–10,000K.
For the Slovenian broadcaster’s news programming, the panels are mounted on a pole operation bracket and are primarily used as 5600K softlights, delivering natural, high-quality white light while offering the flexibility of full-spectrum colour when needed.
The KL Fresnel 6 CW PO features a 150W 5600K cool white LED engine with a CRI above 97, producing over 8,500 lumens.
Sync AV has worked with Slovenia’s national broadcaster for over two decades and oversaw all production for the project. “Elation’s KL Series stood out in both performance and price-to-value ratio,” said Sync AV’s Anis Souissi. “The broadcaster was looking for top-tier quality and precise light control, and the KL range delivered.”
The success of the Studio 3 installation has resulted in the installation of 50 KL Fresnel 6 CW PO and 12 KL Panels in the broadcaster’s Maribor facility in Slovenia’s second-largest city.
