Live Sound For Rovin Fest 2015

We were asked to provide the sound for the Nam stage at a new festival Rovin Fest. A 3 day family festival, with a varied lineup of artists, from folk to jazz to dance to punk. We ran the system with the DiGiCo Sd9 as Front of House and monitor mixer. 30 hours of music through the system and it didn't even break into a sweat! We had some DPA defacto 2 microphones on loan to try out, amazing mics which are now on our to buy list! Some great artists on our stage included Jim MullenJean ToussaintSkinny ListerThe CuginisThe Screaming DeadAlex HutchingsErica and Cutmaster Swift.
We are looking forward to next year.



















Live sound for The PeatBog Faeries

Once again we were asked to supply the P.A Rig for The Peatbog Faeries. They tour with their own front of house mixing desk, and mics and engineer, which we successfully interfaced with our system. 4 18" subs aside achieved the appropriate spl, which got the audience up and dancing straight away.

Live Sound for Juan Martin

We were really pleased to be asked to do the live sound for Juan Martin once again.
Martín has been voted one of the top three guitarists in the world in the magazineGuitar Player.
An amazing evening was enjoyed by the audience at this sold out event in Hellens Great Barn.
Our Schoeps Cmc5's were used on the acoustic guitars much to the delight of Juan. Needless to say a great sound was achieved!
