Rivage PM7 in the mix on Euro festival circuit
- Details
Olli has worked with Yamaha digital consoles since the early 2000s. As well as his work at live concerts, he is an experienced engineer on the biggest live television shows. This summer he is out on the European festival circuit, mixing a number of well-known German rap and electronica acts, including Casper, Sido, Kool Savas and 187 Strassenbande.
Caspar is on a full festival tour, mainly playing as headliner / co-headliner, which started with the twin Rock Am Ring/Rock Im Park festivals in early June. “Major festivals are always a challenge and, when you are performing at such showtimes, there are some really good bands out there. You have to be sure that your artist sounds exceptionally good!” says Olli.
“Yamaha consoles have always been known as the most reliable choice and I really liked the layout of Rivage PM10 from the beginning,” he says. “The latest version of the Rivage firmware has added all the minor tweaks and updates that we were asking for. In terms of reliability, the classic ‘analogue’ sound and its sheer versatility, Rivage PM7 is fantastic. Mix engineers of other artists we are playing with have been openly admiring it.”
