Country superstar Kenny Chesney has taken two Midas Pro X digital mixing consoles on the road as part of his 2016 Spread the Love Tour, which visits 14 major US city stadia. The consoles are serving the band’s monitoring, along with four DL431 Mic Splitters and two DL451 Stage Boxes.
‘Morris has been a longtime supporter of Midas, so when they introduced the Pro X, upgrading seven of our Midas consoles was a natural choice for us,’ says Danny Rosenbalm, CEO of the production company handling the Love Tour. ‘As we aim to provide our clients with the best technology available, the increased channel count and upgraded Neutron DSP make the Midas Pro X console update a solid investment for our company.’
‘I’ve been mixing on Midas Pro Series consoles for more than eight year,s and have fallen in love with the sound they produce,’ says sound engineer and designer, Bryan ‘Opie’ Baxley. ‘The Neutron DSP system upgrade on the Pro X has made the console even more stable, and the 144 inputs satisfy my needs on Kenny Chesney’s tour for years to come.’
‘Midas is one of the easiest consoles to get around on, and I love the pop groups,’ adds monitor engineer, Phill ‘Sidephill’ Robinson. ‘The sound is great from the analogue preamp to the digital processing and back out.’
Along with Kenny Chesney, Morris clients Grace Potter, kd lang and Eli Young Band are also currently touring using Midas Pro X mixing consoles.
