Are those two AKG 426s I see?

And check out that cool green "rolling" light!

Anybody recognize the truck?

Longer clip, but it won't embed: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sK22gyS1qc8

The cue light is the old wooden topped version of the Canford Floor Cue Light (Available Here). I have one with a red lens and a couple of the Table Cue Lights (both with red or green lenses). They're fairly expensive but work well and do look smart.

The truck is the Pace Mobile. Based in Oxford, UK. If it still exists in that form. THey used to have that one and an even rougher one in a Ford Transit van. It was towards the budget end of the market. The only time I've had anything to do with them was on some speech radio work for the BBC. They were pretty clapped out but more or less functional. The one in the clip had a strange layout with the desk against one long wall of the truck and the door more or less opposite. Made for a wide but very shallow work space and a strange monitoring environment. I'm not sure whether the company still exists or if it was taken over/sold. I did hear that the truck had been bought by someone but that could be complete rumour/fabrication so don't take it as fact.

You can see a quick glimpse of the Pace Mobile logo off the side of their truck in the extended version of the YouTube clip you provided us.
