Uniq Solutions acquires Soundcraft Vi6 console
Published: ASIA
SINGAPORE: Singaporean production company Uniq Solutions has added a Soundcraft Vi6 console to its inventory of equipment, enabling the company to cater for medium to large concerts and events. The 10-year old company has a large stock of Yamaha digital and Midas analogue consoles in addition to a wide range of EAW, Electro-Voice and Nexo loudspeakers for various sized corporate and live events.
‘I like the fact that we don’t need to carry much, if any, outboard racks for our productions when using the Vi6,’ confided operations manager Leman Ghani. ‘It’s an easy set up and it’s an easy console to use via the five touchscreens. I was trained up on digital boards and I find this one particularly user friendly. We opted for the Vi6 as opposed to the Vi4 as it has a lot more inputs with 96-channels and so we will be able to work on larger concert sound performances.’
Mr Ghani added: ‘I like the fact that is has redundancy via Cat-5 cabling, but above all is a great sounding desk sonically with a warmth you don’t normally associate with digital. I initially witnessed the Vi console being used at the Esplanade Theatres on the Bay here in Singapore and thought how the engineer seemed so relaxed using it. For many productions, you plug in your presets and away you go.’
