"We will be operating intensive training sessions throughout the show," said Mike Case, Digidesign's European sales manager. "But spaces are limited and we will be filling places strictly on a first-come, first-served basis." Away from the training room Digidesign will be welcoming their top grade sound engineers, who have helped the company towards an outstanding first year in the front line of concert touring. Already using the desk are leading FOH men such as Jim Warren, Huw Richards, Pab Boothroyd, Robb Allen, Matt Manasse and others.
"We are delighted with the calibre of the early adopters of this desk," continued Case. "Aside from the Montreux Jazz Festival - where it spent a 16-day residency in the Miles Davis Hall - the Venue mixed Paris headline band The Cure during Live8 and has been out with a wide span of touring artistes, ranging from Rufus Wainwright to Nine Inch Nails."
Its appearance on further world tours will be announced during the PLASA Show, where Digidesign can be found on the Top Deck on stand FF7.
