As reported by Fast-and-Wide from the Plasa Show floor, Midas Consoles has presented Britannia Row with a Pushing the Boundaries award for its work on the Queen’s Jubilee Concert.

‘The award has been made in recognition of Britannia Row’s design and application of the largest, most complex network of Midas consoles to date,’ explains Midas Brand Manager, Richard Ferriday. ‘The system was used on the hugely demanding Queen’s Jubilee Concert where more than 250,000 people packed into The Mall, St James’s Park and at the Queen Victoria Memorial, to watch the stellar line up of bands, who performed in quick succession, as millions more watched around the world on TV.’

‘Since the launch of the Pro2 and Pro2C Britannia Row has substantially increased its stock of Midas Pro consoles,’ says Bryan Grant of Britannia Row.

‘‘The Queen’s Jubilee system was designed and supervised by one of our top systems engineers, Josh Lloyd, and included Midas Pro9 and Pro2C consoles front of house and XL8, Pro9 and Pro6 consoles in monitor land. In addition Josh employed 14 Midas DL431 digital mic splitters to take care of house band plus orchestra, plus guest bands, the most impressive patch I’ve ever seen. All the consoles and split systems proved themselves to be robust, reliable and ideal for meeting the challenges of an epic, multi band, fast turnaround show.’

‘Everyone at Midas was delighted to see Midas consoles deployed in such a clever and creative way by Britannia Row,’ Ferriday adds. ‘The company’s efforts had to be acknowledged. Britannia Row’s decision to apply Midas’s integrated networking capabilities on a gig as important – and public – as the Queen’s Jubilee Concert is a fantastic endorsement for the Midas System.’
