DiGiCo marketing co-ordinator Maria Fiorellino with 5 Star's Keith Sykes
UK - Continuing its long and successful relationship with console manufacturer DiGiCo, 5 Star Cases is supplying flight cases for their latest console - the SD9, which was launched at the Prolight&Sound exhibition in Frankfurt.

The partnership started with the case design and build for the SD7 in late 2007, and has continued through DiGiCo's SD8, SD8-24, D5 and D1 editions - and now with the SD9.

Ten special versions of the case were fabricated to coincide with the SD9's launch, alongside a standard issue 'production' version. The production model has the additional facility for using optional VESA screen mounts on either side of the console.

As on the SD8 models, a pull-out keyboard drawer and a rear-hinged access flap are included as standard. Colour matched rubber handle grips and the usual DiGiCo branding add further visual impact to the case.

David Webster, DiGiCo's marketing director comments, "The relationship between DiGiCo and 5 Star continues to go from strength to strength. Their philosophy mirrors ours exactly - give the customer what they want, when they want it."
