Part of its celebration of the of the Mexican Revolution bicentennial and the Revolution centenary, the Government of the State of Mexico has opened the Mexiquense Bicentennial Cultural Centre in Texcoco near Mexico. The building houses a library, a museum, art workshops, an auditorium, a 1,300-seat theatre and an outdoor theatre, and is equipped with Allen & Heath iLive systems throughout.
The CCMB venue hosts conferences and performances by national and international performers, with the aim of making the arts accessible to the general public.
In the main theatre, an A&H iLive-144 control surface and iDR-48 MixRack are installed at FOH, with an iLive-T112 surface and another iDR-48 MixRack provided for monitors. For the outdoor theatre, iLive-T112 surfaces and iDR-48 Mixracks were installed at both FOH and monitors.
‘I love the iLive – the routing is very easy, the sound of the preamps is incredible, and processing controls are available on the surface so it is not necessary to work just on the screen,’ says CCMB’d Head of Audio. ‘The option to create custom layers is the best feature of all. It is the easiest mixer to operate.’
