About The Customer
Jesper Eriksson is a self-defined one-man band, operating Jesper Eriksson JE-Digital in Värmdö, Sweden. His Nordic broadcast clients include HBO-Nordic, Ericsson, C More Entertainment, TV4, Kanal 5, SBS Discovery, and more. Other output from his Värmdö studio includes Blu-ray and DVD masters for brands such as Sony DADC, Dicentia Nordisk Undertext. Eriksson has always worked on all incarnations of Pro Tools and has been on Pro Tools | HD Native since 2012. He is part of a worldwide user community of thousands and considers Avid Pro Tools as a cornerstone of his business.
The Challenge
Jesper Eriksson, an audio production engineer, operates a one-man studio, JE-Digital, in Värmdö, Sweden. His clientele includes major Nordic broadcast clients like HBO-Nordic, Ericsson, C More Entertainment, TV4, Kanal 5, SBS Discovery, and more. He also produces Blu-ray and DVD masters for brands such as Sony DADC, Dicentia Nordisk Undertext. The challenge was to stay competitive and take on large post-production projects for TV, film, and commercial clients that required more I/O and processing power. Working in the Nordics and in the 4K/UHD broadcast domain, Eriksson had to deal with a complexity of output formats on a daily basis. Moreover, working with audio in the 4K/UHD broadcast domain, with big surround formats, required a lot of I/O. His existing setup was running at 95 percent of the native system, which limited power for large-scale projects.
The Solution
To overcome these challenges, JE-Digital built a powerful customized audio infrastructure based on Avid’s comprehensive tools for audio content creation powered by the industry’s most open, tightly integrated and efficient platform designed for media, Avid’s MediaCentral Platform. To add even more power and flexibility to his workflow, JE-Digital became the first Avid customer in Scandinavia to purchase the very first HDX system in the region – currently the largest and most powerful HDX system available on the market. With Pro Tools | HDX, Eriksson was able to process, fix and QC over 2,300 television episodes from one major broadcast client. The power offered by Pro Tools | HDX is also being used for immersive audio at his studio. With Pro Tools | HD software at its core, Pro Tools | HDX offers a CPU-saving dedicated DSP, plus the power of the computer, to handle highly demanding sessions.

Predictive Maintenance for Industrial Chillers
For global leaders in the industrial chiller manufacturing, reliability of the entire production process is of the utmost importance. Chillers are refrigeration systems that produce ice water to provide cooling for a process or industrial application. One of those leaders sought a way to respond to asset performance issues, even before they occur. The intelligence to guarantee maximum reliability of cooling devices is embedded (pre-alarming). A pre-alarming phase means that the cooling device still works, but symptoms may appear, telling manufacturers that a failure is likely to occur in the near future. Chillers who are not internet connected at that moment, provide little insight in this pre-alarming phase.
