portable editing bench

Explanation:
I like 'editing kit' too. As you say, the portablility is clearly implied in the word 'valise'.

The basic term : 'editing bench/console/table' most commonly represented by 'table de montage' in French.

AVID (in Neuilly sur Seine) deliver, install and collect thier own make video broadcast equipment ... and send out nice choccies at Christmas time. (I have worked for one of their clients a fair bit in the past).
