For the tour, the role of monitor engineer was filled by Espen Andersen, using one of Soundcraft's new Vi6 digital audio consoles. "A tour is the real test of a console, not what you see in the demo. The Vi6 performed perfectly on each of the 14 dates, and I thought that the sound quality was amazing."
The Vi6 is already making quite an impact in Norway, purchased by the National Theatre, and also by Oslo-based PA company Christiania Lyd. With a customer base that encompasses live music and corporate events, Christiania Lyd has an inventory of JBL VRX PA system powered by Crown I-Tech. According to Soundcraft distributors LydRommet AS, the Vi6 is the perfect match for a PA customer like Christiania Lyd: "It is ideal for a regional PA compay which places an emphasis on quality equipment. The Vi6 will be their first digital desk."
