W E Audio adds two Quantum 338 Pulse consoles with DMI Klang expansion cards to DiGiCo inventory

W E Audio was one the first companies in the UK to place an order for DiGiCo’s new Quantum 338 console. They already own a large stock of SD11 and Quantum 225, but when DiGiCo announced the new product, W E Audio immediately jumped on board.

W E Audio’s Luke Ireland and Samuel Cooper agree that there is always the opportunity to find a new DiGiCo convert and providing the full audio package for Seal on his UK and EU tour was a chance to win over another engineer, as Sam Cooper explains: “We had one engineer who is firmly rooted in the studio scene. He had used the SD consoles before, but once we showed him the additional capability and functionality of the Quantum 338, especially the new Chilli and Mustard processing, he was taken aback. The added functionality of the screens was another bonus that really impressed him.”

“For someone like me, the offline software is a real bonus”, he adds. “When programming the show file between different venues, or if I have to pick up a different console for example, it makes it easier to prep in advance and that makes the whole process smoother. For our monitor engineer, who has been touring for a number of years with high-end artists, and who came from an SD10 and SD12 background, upgrading to the Quantum 338 was impressive but still familiar, so he got to grips with it really quickly.”

Looking to the future, Ireland is most excited about the Pulse software upgrades for the Quantum 225. “The Quantum 225 with Pulse updates will have all the efficiency of the Quantum 338, but in a smaller unit,” he says. “The other thing that I really like about the Quantum 225 is the dual-purpose screen, which you can configure for Klang, Waves or for a desktop PC.”

“We’ve also recently acquired a large stock of Martin Audio, so we will carry the full stock of WPL, WPC and WPS products”, he adds. “Taking those out on tour with our DiGiCo consoles is a winning combination.”
