Canada’s Sam Roberts Band has completed a three-month tour of America and Canada, promoting their sixth studio album, TerraForm. Travelling with them are dLive S Class front of-house/monitor and ME personal mixing systems from Allen & Heath.
Comprising a Dante-enabled S5000 Surface and DM48 MixRack, engineer Matt Lamarche mixed FOH and monitors using the system, while drummer, Josh Trager, used a ME personal mixing system.
‘After trying out a number of the other monitoring systems on the market, the ME-1 has been a game changer and life saver,’ Trager says. ‘It’s easy to configure, build groups as needed, and is quick and easy to adjust during the show.’
The tour took in 30 dates between November 2016 and February 2017, including a variety of venues and festivals. ‘dLive is great. Lots of the house techs are very blown away with it, and the drummer loves that ME-1,’ Lamarche says. ‘For the support acts we’ve had, I make a scene, and setup a layer so quick for them, they are amazed how easy it is to configure. The DEEP processing plug-ins are excellent and very useful.’
