DiGiCo SD7T Is A Sound Choice For Buehne Baden TheatreLocated in the Austrian spa town of Baden, the Buehne Baden Theatre hosts a wide array of productions, from plays, operas and musicals to symphony concerts, big bands and rock concerts. Accommodating such a variety of shows is a challenge for the theatre’s sound department, but one which has been significantly eased with the delivery of a DiGiCo SD7T console. A feature of this historic, 1700-seat theatre is its excellent acoustics, so any new Front of House console had to match the purity of sound. The SD7T does just that and, with its significant processing power and ease of use, has brought many other advantages.

DiGiCo SD8 Adds Colombia To Its Ever Growing ItineraryWhen Colombian rental company C Vilar worked with a DiGiCo SD8 on a tour by Grammy-winning singer Carlos Vives, so impressed were the staff by its performance that it wasn’t long before the company purchased one for its own inventory, adding another country to the console’s world itinerary… Vives’ Front of House engineer Rob ‘Cubby’ Colby is a keen DiGiCo user and C Vilar proprietor Mauricio Vilar Martinez felt the SD8 would be the ideal product for the company. “The audio quality, dynamics and frequency response are all excellent and I really like being able to connect the remote snake via MADI,” says Mauricio. 
Koch Theatre Revamps Main Audio System From Analogue To Digital SD8The David H. Koch Theater, part of the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts in New York City, has been home to the finest ballet and opera performances since opening in 1964. Formerly the New York State Theatre, the historic structure was originally built as part of New York State's cultural participation in the 1964-1965 World's Fair. During a multi-million dollar renovation that began in 2008, funded by billionaire philanthropist David H. Koch, the massive overhaul encompassed structural and architectural improvements, and eventually included a revamp of the theatre’s main audio system from analog to digital. Abe Jacob, a world-renowned audio mixer/sound designer and the theatre’s Sound Supervisor worked in tandem with Lew Mead, Director of Autograph A2D, and Group One Ltd, both U.S. DiGiCo distributors, to spec in an SD8 console. Both decided that the SD8 was the perfect fit, in terms of size and onboard features, for the theatre’s numerous requirements.
