South Africa’s Gearhouse operation has made a significant investment in ARX Systems’ USB interfaces as an essential addition to the company’s live production toolkit. In total, Gearhouse has purchased ten ARX USB DI VC Plus, ten USB DI HP and six USB DI audio interfaces from Octave Distribution, the distributor for the ARX Systems product range in South Africa.
The Gearhouse Group is a collection of companies, branches and divisions that fit together to provide the widest range of technical services currently available to the live event industry in South Africa. With a portfolio that includes live touring, corporate events, concerts, rental and installation, the company prides itself on their creativity, state of the art technology and experience.
The ARX products that Gearhouse has chosen are plug-and-play USB Audio interfaces, featuring 24-bit high-resolution digital-to-analogue conversion, which removes the need to use a computer’s internal soundcard outputs with its inherent noise and distortion. The USB DI Plus VC is a Dual Mode (Digital and Analogue) audio interface with the addition of volume control. The USB DI and USB DI HP are dual-channel interfaces with full transformer balanced output isolation to eliminate earth loops/ground hum and other extraneous interaction noise and distortion.
