More details from Stage Electrics (www.stage-electrics.co.uk):
In the past 12 months Stage Electrics have supplied DiGiCo SD8, SD9 and SD11 digital mixing consoles to over ten venues across the country with recent sales to Embassy Theatre in Skegness, Scarborough’s Stephen Joseph Theatre, The BRIT School in Croydon; Liverpool Everyman & Playhouse, Eton College, Peterborough Key Theatre, and to Newcastle College who have installed two DiGiCo SD9’s in their main house and studio theatre. The college also plays host to the company’s annual Tyneside exhibition set for Oct. 22, 2013.
Nick Rogerson, Instructor at Newcastle College Performance Academy said, “The purchase of these two desks has allowed us to upgrade the resources available to our Stage Management and Technical Theatre students and stay current with the equipment in use in the industry. I was impressed at how user-friendly and intuitive the desks were while still having the flexibility, features and sound quality of the larger SD-series desks. I’m also extremely happy that we have been able to purchase a product that is both designed and manufactured in this country. The support from Stage Electrics in helping us identify which products would meet our needs has been fantastic.”
The DiGiCo SD series have already set a new benchmark for digital consoles on the market, by providing its users more power, flexibility and creativity whilst still being serviceable, compact and user-friendly. The SD9 and SD11 in particular have demonstrated their value and popularity by successfully tapping into the more budget conscious markets where there is still a demand for the highest production values.
“2012 was great year for us with DiGiCo products; both the SD11 and SD9 have proved to be ideal choice for our customers. The recent SD9 Supercharge rack pack from DiGiCo that offers its users high end audio console with two D-racks plus two Digital Snacks in one package at a competitively price been highly successful and sought after. We have a strong order book for 2013 and we’re confident that it will be an even more successful year for us with DiGiCo products.” commented Davie Bell, Divisional Sales Manager, Stage Electrics.
