Let It Be Midas as McCartney Tours US
Roden is also a long-time champion of Midas consoles and has been using the Heritage since its launch, having relied on a pair of H3000s for last few McCartney tours.
“It sounds great and is reliable too,” he says. “Money and space requirements are not an issue with McCartney, I can have whatever I need to do my job and the temptation to change to a digital format was strong, but we have done several tours very successfully using the two H3000s and the old saying 'if it aint broken, don't fix it' kept springing to mind. McCartney is a very organic show to mix and I need to be able to see and do things instantly without pressing three or four buttons to get to where I want to be, so in the end the choice was easy.”
Boothroyd is also using a Klark Teknik Helix digital equaliser for his final system EQ. “I love the DN27 emulation, and it sounds really good and musical,” he says. “It’s easy to use and to be able to grab and cut peak frequencies quickly. I’m also using a KT DN1248 Plus active splitter to feed mono and stereo buffered feeds from FOH to media, video world, the arena hearing impaired system and anything else that needs to be fed and forgotten.”
