"The desk is so easy to use,"says Roberts. "Everything is completely accessible on the touch sensitive screens. There are plenty of gates / compressor limiters, all available at the touch of a screen, and in several banks of 8 channels, so you are not limited to working with one channel at a time.
"There are loads of channels. I managed to fit the Criminals on the first layer, and the tour support (Cantaloop from Leicester) on the second. In addition, the Vi6 output busses could be configured for whatever purpose I required. For mixing purposes, I was able to set the up the first eight busses as sub-groups with compressors inserted across them. The second bank of eight, I assigned as FX sends, using the internal effects. The third bank of eight was set up as matrix outputs, in order to cope with extra feeds to House PA systems/Media sends."
