WARSAW, Poland — Continuing its tradition of bringing together stars with worldwide recognition to witness music at its finest, the International Sopot Festival is Poland’s largest event of the year and celebrated its 45th anniversary with a two-day festival. Warsaw PA rental company, GMB ProSound, supplied and operated the sound system centered on Soundcraft Vi6 and Vi4 mixers. The main front-of-house mixers deployed two Soundcraft Vi6s and the monitors were run through two Soundcraft Vi4 mixers.
The sound engineers powering the event were pleased with the appearance and ease of use of Soundcraft’s digital mixers. “One of our monitor engineers sat at the desk for the very first time and went through a timed rehearsal on day one without ever reading the manual beforehand,” said Remek Kasztelnik, sound engineer from GMB ProSound. “The ease of use and the touch-screen Vistonics interface allowed the engineers to handle any obstacle that the two day festival offered and didn’t interrupt the engineers’ ability to mix an amazing show.”
The festival was organized and aired live in HD by TVN, one of the country’s main commercial TV networks. Kasztelnik proudly stated, “Our TV partners were very pleased because the Soundcraft boards allowed us to provide them with a copy of all signals via the consoles auxiliary MADI outputs directly from the show.”
