The 40-channel MH3 is replacing an older Soundcraft desk, which has given good service to the owners of Rubix, the University of Surrey Union. Technical manager Ian Lipp explained: "The MH3 has a good balance of features without being over-specified and confusing. It does everything we need at the right price, and most importantly, at the right weight. Some of the other consoles we looked at were just too heavy. We do move this desk around - for example it will be used during the Guildford Festival, so it needs to be portable."
