AUSTRALIA — Victoria-based Intavent Technical Services provided all the AV requirements for this year’s Melbourne Cup in Australia, basing the audio system around two Allen & Heath WZ312M mixers.
Renowned as the “race that stops a nation”, the iconic event is a day of frivolity and fashion, attracting over 400,000 race-goers and culminating in the famous 3200 meter dash.
Gary Ashmore, managing director of Intavent, celebrated his 12th consecutive cup as the contracted audio supplier. He commented on his choice of Allen & Heath mixers:
“The two MixWizard consoles were the backbone of the audio system, distributing audio to 22 corporate and public areas. The mixers performed flawlessly in terms of operation, gain structure and ergonomics.”
Two MixWizard 12-output monitor mixers were connected using Allen & Heath’s Sys-link standard, which links two consoles together with a single cable to expand the channel count. This provided up to 24 zone outputs for the various areas around the Flemington Racecourse.
