According to Axel Nagtegaal, MD of distributor Midas Consoles Benelux, this marks a milestone in the Belgian market. "Sound Inc chose the Midas PRO6 to support their future growth plans," he says. "With Jan Durant spearheading the Midas digital march in Belgium, I am confident that more PRO Series deliveries will follow soon."
Sound Inc has long experience of Midas consoles, with XL200s, XL3s, Legend 3000s and H3s all featuring in its portfolio over the years. Jan Durant, Sound Inc founder and MD, who had previously rented a number of digital consoles of various brands, says purchasing the PRO6 was the logical step.
"At first we were worried that by going digital we would lose out on sound quality," he reports. "However the PRO6 delivers that wonderful warm Midas sound, just like its analogue counterparts.
"We've used the PRO6 for two bands so far, and they were blown away by it," says Durant. "With the console already booked for some 80 gigs in the coming year its fan club is only going to grow."
