The first outing for the Contours is with the current Metallica tour, engineered by Mick Hughes: Chris Beale also deployed Contours for front-of-house system EQ and delay management on the Pyramid Stage at this year's Glastonbury Festival.
Other tours featuring Lake Contours recently include Westlife and Radiohead, both out with Manchester UK-based Wigwam Acoustics, who purchased a pair of the processors late last year. Using the units for overall front-of-house zone EQ control, Radiohead's system engineer Florent Bernard commented: "The Contour processors perform great and the software is a really well-designed sound engineer's tool."
Lake Technology products are distributed in the UK by Out Board.
