Great bodypack with expensive proprietary cable

This body pack has a limiter, mono/stereo selector, volume control, and sounds great. Definitely like it.

The cable costs something like $100 and after hundreds of uses, mine eventually wore out. At this rate I could just buy a mixer to plug my stereo mix into and have that much more power over it.

We continued our work with Laura Mvula, providing a control & monitor package for extensive UK, European & USA touring. Consisting of Soundcraft Vi1 desks at FOH and monitors, D&B M4 floor monitors and Shure P6 hard-wire systems.

A custom line system was also provided allowing the hard-wire IEM system inputs to be included in the multpin connector of each stage sub-box.

This system has been touring with Laura and Her band internationally throughout the two year touring campaign following the success of the debut album ‘Sing to the Moon’, which has achieved gold sales status in the UK.
