ENGLAND — CV Audio called upon on Allen & Heath iLive system for sound reinforcement at the Shrewsbury Folk Festival, a four-day festival with many international acts, such as Grammy-nominated Winnipeg five-piece The Duhks; Richard Thompson from Fairport Convention, legendary folk rockers Oysterband and Irish instrumental band Lunasa,
The iLive system was installed at FOH with a multicore and analog split to a second iLive system comprising an iDR10 stagerackand iLive-80 control surface positioned on monitors. This was complemented with a flown HK line array, front fills, subs and wedges.
“Due to the comms system, it was necessary to employ a traditional analog set up, connecting the FOH and monitor consoles via multicore and active split,” explains CV Audio’s Graham Bradshaw. “This wouldn’t be possible with most digital systems, but iLive is so versatile we were able to easily adapt the system on this occasion. All the visiting engineers were unfamiliar with iLive, but they quickly picked up naming and color-coding channels and saving band scenes.”
