Commenting on the decision to switch distribution to Soinua, Cadac brand development manager Richard Ferriday says, "It was a strategic decision in order to more effectively focus our distribution on the live production sector. This is where Soinua is especially strong, being heavily involved with sound touring and live event production throughout Spain."
Commenting for Soinua, general manager Jorge De La Torre states, "The aim of our company is not to carry an expansive range of brands but to have a highly select and complementary portfolio of products, chosen purely on the basis of quality. We were looking for a key high end mixer manufacturer to partner other represented marques like Lab Gruppen and TWAUDiO. We wanted a brand where we can believe 'this really works' and with a good team of professional people behind it. Cadac was a perfect fit.
"The touring and installation markets are very important for us. The CDC four - and in the near future, the CDC eight - will serve very important clients extremely well for ST, event, installation and theatre sound applications."
Already the company has scored successes with sales of both the digital CDC four and analogue LIVE1 compact consoles. Most recently Soinua has supplied a CDC four for FOH on the reformation tour by leading Basque rockers Lin Ton Taun. The tour, marking the band's reformation after a 10 year hiatus, is currently playing across the Basque region before going national in the summer and throughout the rest of the year.
