Manaus PA
company, SPA, recently invested in Allen & Heath’s dLive digital mixing
system, adding the flagship S7000 Control Surface and DM64 MixRack to its hire
stock.
“I was
interested in investing in a new console to update our hire stock and went to a
demo of the dLive,” comments SPA owner, Pedro Chaves. “I love the versatility
of the dLive system, the expansion and networking capabilities, and the
brilliant tools, such as the compressors and reverbs. The system works
faultlessly in Brazil’s climate too, which can be very hot and humid.”
SPA’s new
system was used for the first time for the live recording of a new DVD, They
Sing Samba, hosted at Manaus’ spectacular Amazon Theatre, and at a concert of
famous singer, Alceu Valença, also held in Manaus.
Aurelio
Kauffmann, sound engineer for Alceu Valença, commented:
“This was
the first time I had seen this console but it was very easy to figure out and
soon I was surfing! dLive is very simple to use, the workflow is intuitive, and
the sound quality is great. I really enjoyed mixing on it.”
