The conversion of Berlin-Neukölln’s Britz Castle into a cultural centre, is now complete – providing the German city with a new 300-capacity concert and theatre hall

The technical spec for the venue was for a future-proof digital system that could easily be used by sound engineers of guest productions. It also needed to be portable to service not just the hall but other areas in the venue, and flexible and simple to configure, with the option to have wireless control for smaller events. The solution is centred on Allen & Heath’s iLive digital mixing system.

The iLive system comprises a Dante-enabled iDR-32 MixRack with iLive-T80 Control Surface, plus a PL-10 rotary panel for remote control.

iLive’s competitive price, built in compressor and EQ, as well as the possibility of the live recording of events via a laptop through the Dante interface, are cited as the main reasons it was selected: ‘iLive meets all requirements and expectations,’ says Dirk Förster, from System Integration Berlin. ‘The system is light weight, which made the installation easy, and has amazing technical flexibility.’
