Southward Car Museum in New Zealand has made an Allen & Heath Qu-16 rackmount digital mixer part of an upgrade to its events audio equipment.
The renowned museum houses a collection of more than 400 vehicles, as well as three aircraft, and hosts various events from balls and festivals to conferences. ‘We need to offer our clients a professional service – including good quality audio equipment,’ explains Booking & Events Coordinator, Levi Hampton. ‘The A&H mixer is a no brainer – it’s easy to operate from set-up to pack down.’
Staging at the venue alters depending on the type of event and its requirements. The Qu mixer’s simple dSnake Cat5 connection allows the venue to install the console wherever it is needed. ‘For me, Qu’s greatest assets are the touchscreen interface, which makes tasks such as EQing and routing very easy, and the simplicity of the console, which makes for a much more efficient pack in and load out time,’ Hampton concludes.
