UK production company Nub Sound took an Allen & Heath dLive digital mixing system on the road with British singer songwriter Jamie Lawson.

Rob SimpsonSigned by Ed Sheeran’s new Gingerbread Man Records labelin 2015, Lawson tour coincided with the release of a second single from his self-titled No.1 album. Nub Sound managed audio production for the tour, selecting the smallest dLive system, the S3000 Control Surface and DM32 MixRack for FOH duties.

‘We have Allen & Heath iLive, GLD and Qu mixers in our hire stock, so I have been excited about trying out dLive as soon as I heard it was in development,’ says Nub Sound FOH engineer, Rob Simpson. ‘There was no production rehearsal time available before the tour and I did not get my hands on the dLive system until the night before the first show. However, within 20 minutes I was up and running – it’s so intuitive.

‘dLive sounds fantastic,’ he continues. ‘The space in the mix is amazing, it sounds more open and ‘wider’ than other consoles I’ve tried – the headroom is incredible. One of the major reasons for choosing dLive was the FX – I have always been impressed with the quality of the iLive FX library, and dLive’s offering is even better, plus there are extra FX slots. I really love the new opto comp, and I use the multi-band compressors, de-essers, dynamic EQ and reverbs. On a practical note, the system easily fitted in the tour trailer, which needed to house the whole A/V kit, so my impact on the tour load was minimal.’

The tour covered key venues across the UK and Ireland, which all sold out, and Lawson will now be using dLive on his spring tour of Australia.
