Becoming the second Belgian rental company to take a large-format Midas Pro6, leading rental company Sound Inc has a new flagship mixing console that has already won admirers. ‘We’ve used the Pro6 for two bands so far and they were blown away by it,’ says Jan Durant, Sound Inc founder and MD. ‘With the console already booked for some 80 gigs in the coming year, its fan club is only going to grow.

Serving the live arena circuit since 2002, Sound Inc has long experience of Midas consoles, with XL200s, XL3s, Legend 3000s and H3s all featuring in its portfolio over the years. Durant had previously rented a number of digital consoles of various brands, and believes that purchasing the Pro6 was the logical step: ‘At first we were worried that by going digital we would lose out on sound quality,’ he says. ‘However the Pro6 delivers that wonderful warm Midas sound, just like its analogue counterparts.’
With sound quality assured, Durant is free to appreciate the digital advantages of the Pro6, particularly the POP(ulation) groups and the Area B, where ‘all your channels are right at hand.’
