JOHANNESBURG —South Africa’s Shattered Glass recently purchased a Soundcraft Si2 console to prepare for upcoming events including the 2010 FIFA World Cup.
The company had used a Soundcraft Vi6 console for years for live events including corporate events, concerts and in theatre environments. Selling points for the Si2 included the console’s ability to switch between channel and global mode, FX and dynamics processing on every channel and easy VCA routing.
“We chose the Si2 because it is so user-friendly,” said Adriano Landi, the technical director for Shattered Glass. “Any good sound engineer will be able to use this desk in a matter of minutes without using it before. It’s compact, straightforward, easy to learn and so easy to train on.”
Shattered Glass has already used its new Si2 for events including the Coca-Cola Moment 4 Summer Recruit, the MNet Long Service Awards and the Vodashop Spring Break at Sun City.
“The Si2 is an absolute pleasure to work with and outstanding value for our money,” Landi said. The unit’s features include independent filters, 31 band EQ and dynamic processing.
