Kangnam Joongang Baptist Church in Seoul marked its 40th anniversary with an upgrade to its mixing system. It selected Allen & Heath’s dLive and ME digital systems to manage FOH and monitors.
The church’s dLive system comprises a S5000 Surface at FOH with a DM48 MixRack installed on stage. It also purchased a ME personal mixing system, comprising one ME-U hub and five ME-1 mini mixers, to manage monitors.
Sanghun Kim, media manager at Kangnam Joongang Baptist Church commented: "The S5000’s user interface is superb - I can reach every function in just one or two touches, and I can reach a function several different ways. I think it is so nice for an engineer to be able to adjust everything to his own taste. For me, the dual touch screen is essential, and dLive has a super-fast response, and natural touch like a smart phone."
Daehee Kim, Kangnam’s worship band bass player and experienced jazz musician, added: "I have tried other personal mixers but ME is on another level. The sound quality is as if it came from a recording studio, the stereo image and density of the sound are really good. Also, ME has a built-in microphone and you can plug in your 3.5mm jack. These are small details but the small things can affect the way you play during a performance."
