Allen & Heath’s dLive digital mixing system was employed on the main stage of the recent Bacardi NH7 Weekender, held in RBDSA sports complex in Shillong, India. The annual multi-city festival is one of the largest music festivals in India.
PA company, Sound & Light Professionals [SNL], has managed sound reinforcement for the main stage since the event’s inception. To meet the technically diverse demands for monitoring on stage, SNL deployed its recently purchased dLive S7000 Surface and DM64 MixRack. The products were supplied by Allen & Heath’s Delhi-based distributor, Sun Infonet.
Manish Mavani, owner of Sound & Light Professionals, said: “With dLive, my team was confident it would be able to cover each section of the stage.â€
Madhur Hastikar, monitor engineer, commented: “This was my first experience of using dLive, and there are several features about the board which really stand out. Firstly, the headroom is simply remarkable. Also, the dual Touchscreens make the GUI very intuitive to the average user. The rotary controls feel very responsive, similar to that of an analogue desk, which makes dialling parameters or gain a lot smoother.â€
