With six studio albums to their name, festival headliners Nonpalidece have been Argentina's leading reggae band for nearly twenty years and regular performers at music festivals all over the country. Also on the bill was Ponto de Equilibio from Brasil, the Daara J.Family Sound System from Senegal, and C4, also from Argentina. All acts were using Nexo's 45°N12 line monitors on stage.
Rental company Valiente Produciones, with support from Los Angeles Musica, designed a substantial STM rig for the venue, the Platense Stadium in Buenos Aires, which has capacity for 32,000 people.
Argentina is now one of the primary markets in south America for the Nexo STM Series, which is a regular fixture at the country's largest events, thanks to a network of rental companies which collaborate and pool their inventories as required. Cooperative cross-hiring of Nexo STM and Geo Series is made easier by the standardization of amplification and controllers in the Nexo Universal Amp Racks (NUARs).
