USA - Eight GQ600 Dual Channel Graphic Equalisers from XTA Electronics are at the sonic centre of a sophisticated line array PA system designed and assembled by Sound Image and deployed by live sound specialists Star Way Productions. The XTA GQ600 equalisers and the rest of the system are used regularly for major concert events at two of the country's leading Native American gaming and resort facilities, the Pechanga Resort & Casino and the San Manuel Indian Bingo & Casino, both in Southern California.

Since taking possession of the system earlier this year, Star Way Productions has used it for shows featuring artists such as Engelbert Humperdinck, Styx, Jamie Foxx, Stevie Wonder, Ludacris, and Phil Vassar.

The PA system, which is based on QSC WideLine components and uses two Yamaha PM5D FOH consoles, was designed by Sound image. "We recommended the GQ600 EQs for this system because we felt it was the best possible solution for equalisation," says Dave Shadoan, president of Sound Image. "It's a great EQ and we have it out with several of our clients, including Merle Haggard, who is opening for Bob Dylan, and with the Doobie Brothers. We also use the GQ600 in our contracting division. And they're super reliable - we've never, ever had to send one back for repair."
