FOH engineer Sean Sullivan
USA - For Sheryl Crow's current spring tour, promoting her new album Detours, FOH engineer Sean 'Sully' Sullivan (Beck, Justin Timberlake) put together a streamlined live sound system based around a Digidesign Venue D-Show Profile integrated with a Pro Tools|HD system.

Keeping the system compact was a primary objective for Sullivan. The Venue system allows him to reduce the need for outboard analogue processing in favour of TDM plug-ins. And when combined with Pro Tools|HD, the D-Show Profile provides Sullivan with access to studio-quality production tools that allow him to achieve album-quality mixes from venue to venue on a nightly basis.

"On this tour, I have a very small simple setup," he explains. "When my production manager saw my rig he asked, 'When does the rest of it arrive?' But the bonus is, with the Venue [D-Show] Profile, my favourite plug-ins and a Pro Tools rig, I am achieving album-quality mixes night after night."
