UK venue Glee Club installs Soundcraft’s Vi1 desk

Pacific recommended the desk to Glee Club owners, Comic Enterprises, after working on the resident ‘parent’ Soundcraft Vi6 console at the O2 Arena’s IndigO2 while on tour last year. This led to an invitation for a demo at the Soundcraft HQ.

In addition to the sound system, the company also designed and installed the lighting, based around LED fresnels, colour bars and house lights, all run off an Avolites Pearl Tiger.  

Converted from a Jongleurs Comedy Club, with a Cat5 cabling infrastructure, capacity runs at 450 seated (700 standing) in the main theatre and 250 seated (350 standing) in the second room. he venue’s production manager can use the desk inputs for band mixing upstairs in the main venue (which also has a raked balcony), while a floor lower in the second space, which operates as an independent room, a small Soundcraft EFX12 has been deployed.
