An Allen & Heath dLive digital mixing system was used recently on a special concert in the Philharmonic Hall of Astrakhan, in the southern region of Russia.
Comprising an S5000 Control Surface and DM48 MixRack, the system was fitted with Dante, Waves and Madi network cards, and was used for both FOH and monitors, as well as making a multichannel recording of the event.
The concert was performed by Makhov’s, named after its first artistic director and conductor, Vyacheslav Makhov. Based in Astrakhan, the orchestra tours musical festivals all around the country, and staged a special home coming performance.
‘dLive has an amazing sound,’ says orchestra conductor, Leonid Butakov. ‘It is unbelievably soft and velvet smooth. I was so comfortable working on stage that I didn’t even notice when our performance was over. I’ve never heard sound of this quality at our Philharmonic Hall before.’
