Published: ASIA
CHINA: Hong Kong-based Rightway Audio Consultants recently supplied a DiGiCo SD8 and SD8-24 console for the seventh Jazz Music Festival Shanghai.
‘The festival provides a chance for jazz musicians and audio engineers to get together and enjoy the music,’ said Monica Au, marketing and communications executive at Rightway. ‘They have very high standards, so we will only use the very best systems bringing the truest, clearest sound to the critical ears of jazz audiences, musicians and the professional engineers.’
The SD8 and SD8-24 were described as ‘ideally suited’ for FOH and monitor duties at the festival. ‘The entire DiGiCo SD Series feature the same creative mixing power, versatility and exceptional sonic purity, and we decided the SD8 and SD8-24 were the best choice for the Riverside Stage,’ explained Ms Au. ‘The intuitive user interface and powerful stealth digital processing also means that they are ideally suited for festivals.’
Rightway’s product manager Shaojun Liang and technical engineer Jimmy Zhan were present to assist the stage’s audio engineers TL Pettersen and Dan Mosley.
‘The team from Rightway helped to make my first DiGiCo experience a very positive one,’ said Mr Pettersen. ‘Together with the fabulous K-array loudspeaker system, it was a very free and creative sound experience. I look forward to my next encounter with a DiGiCo console,’ he enthused.
