The Soundcraft Vi6 was installed in a way to cope with all manner of monitor feeds, allow for joint front-of-house redundancy and to provide ultimate portability. "After researching the venue and presenting our ideas, the Vi6 was the easy choice for the Hall to make," says Aaron Rudden, owner of CET /AMR Export. "Key items that secured the Vi6 were its 96-channel solution, Soundcraft's commitment to product support, ease of use, light weight, modular design and rapid tour acceptance on the world market."
Rudden adds that Soundcraft's customer support is equally impressive as the design and engineering of the company's products. For this project, Adrian Curtis, Soundcraft Studer's vice president of sales, personally visited Queen's Hall to assist with the training and commissioning of the CET staff. "We were very happy to see Adrian, knowing that his tutoring of us was way beyond his duty," Rudden adds.
"We've seen a handful of shows since we finalized the installation and the sound couldn't be better," Rudden continues. "The residents of the Caribbean have always been fans of the 'British Console' sound."
