UK - Adlib Audio supplied a JBL VerTec sound system and full audio production and crew for Brand New's recent UK tour - the New York based Indie rockers' largest production tour to date. In control of Brand New's FOH mix is engineer Chris Cole who recommended Adlib to tour manager Jamieson Shea, having working with them several times in the past.

VerTec and also three of the latest Dolby Lake processors for EQ were employed. They used ten elements of flown VerTec a side and six Adlib DF4 twin 18" subs. The VT was powered by Camco Vortex 6 amplifiers and the subs by Crown VZ5000s.

Cole used a Midas H3000 console, which he describes as "a great desk for sound quality and ease of use, and generally excellent for the band". For compression, he used a combination of dbx 160s and BSS901s chained together. Adlib also supplied a rack of four dbx 160s which he put across the two main vocalists and their guitars. Effects wise, he used a TC M3000 on all the vocals, along with a D2 delay.
