Midas PRO6 impresses the professionals in Ukraine
The Midas PRO6 live audio system proved to be the highlight of the third annual Ukrainian Sound Engineers Union Seminar which was held during May in Kiev’s resort district Pushtcha Vodica.
Midas Klark Teknik’s Ukrainian distributor CORTMI Ltd provided a PRO6 as FOH console for the entire three-day seminar. As well as demonstrating the Midas sound to delegates for all the presentations, the set up was used for a vocal microphone test arranged by the Ukrainian Sound Engineers Union, as well as a sound engineers’ proficiency contest.
The seminar also included a presentation devoted especially to the PRO6 by CORTMI sound engineer Vladimir Prokof’yev. Delegates participated in a workshop introducing them to the practical aspects of working with the console, and were given a presentation by sound engineer Vitaliy Siroshtan from rental company Jazz-Club Service, the first Ukrainian company to purchase a PRO6. Siroshtan shared his personal experiences of working with the PRO6 at numerous events in a variety of venues during the Ukrainian tours of Russian superstars Grigoriy Leps and Philip Kirkorov.
Stanislav Serbin, marketing manager, CORTMI says: “It was a fantastic opportunity for delegates to see and hear the PRO6 close-up, and in the breaks between presentations, engineers were able to touch the console and examine its functions for themselves. Engineers were particularly impressed with the PRO6’s unique ability to produce authentic analogue sound via an intuitive workface combined with a richness of digital functions, features and usability. They get the best of all worlds.”
