The final of Malaysia’s Anugerah Juara Lagu (Champion of Songs) national song contest saw A/V rental company, MJ Event Management Sdn Bhd, supply a large-scale Allen & Heath dLive S Class digital mixing system to manage the studio and broadcast sound.
The event was hosted by broadcaster TV3 and watched by 6.1m viewers, and featured live performances from the 12 finalists as well as a number of guests. Several of Malaysia’s most prominent audio engineers were enlisted to mix this prestigious event, with Zairi Ariffin at FOH and Jim Teh handling monitors, supported by Zunun from TV3. The system engineer was Mohamad Firdaues, who has been a leading advocate of dLive in the country.
MJ Event Management specified an Allen & Heath dLive system for both FOH and monitors, and to provide the broadcast feed via an active splitter. The system included a pair of dLive S7000 surfaces running in multi-surface mode with a DM64 MixRack, plus an S5000 surface and DM48 MixRack. System I/O was supplemented by two DX32 expanders. A Waves3 card enabled 128 channel multitrack recording of the performances. Some 30 ME-1 personal mixers were supplied, enabling musicians to control their own monitors.
