Adlib puts L-Acoustics & DiGiCo in the Limelight
- Details
Limelight had already developed a relationship with Adlib as they previously owned a smaller L-Acoustics system and would use Adlib to source cross hires for larger shows and for spares as necessary.
The recent purchases include most of the current L-Acoustics range of speakers - K2, Kara, Kiva and ARCS Wide plus HiQ wedges – supplied together with LA amplifiers, proprietary flying systems, a set of LoadGuard motors and rigging - all fully flight-cased. A DiGiCo SD12 console was selected as a fully-featured user-friendly console with which most professional sound engineers will be familiar.
Craig Duncan, owner of Limelight Event Services, said: “We feel that L-Acoustics is the best option for the majority of our work, and it’s the system most often requested by band riders. This, coupled with the great relationship we enjoy with Adlib and their excellent after-sales support, made it an easy decision.”
Adlib director John Hughes comments: “There is a rise in demand for leading technologies and quality production values on the Scottish market, both in the live performance arena and for fixed installations, and our knowledgeable and proactive sales team is dedicated to assisting its development.”
The first show for the new kit was a high-profile gig for electronic gurus Leftfield at Glasgow Barrowlands, part of the 22nd anniversary tour of their seminal 1995 album Leftism and this set a positive tone and was quickly followed by gigs at Inverness Sports Centre for The Beach Boys and Status Quo with their acclaimed Aquostic show, followed by shows headlined by Little Mix.
