Adlib's Scottish operation continues its active support and strategic partnerships in the region with another sale of premium brands L-Acoustics and DiGiCo to rental company AudioCP, a busy operation based in Glasgow and headed by Scott Young.
AudioCP was founded by Scott in 2012 and specialises in providing carefully crafted sound systems for the live music sector. Scott, who originally studied popular music at Edinburgh's Napier College before working as a professional drummer for 10 years, has also owned and run a recording studio and a rehearsal room so he knows a thing or two about good sound!
By late 2016, he was looking to invest in a premium audio system for AudioCP complete with a state-of-the-art mixing console to enable the company and its business to move up several levels, consolidate their current client base and also pitch for larger and higher profile projects.

Coincidentally - just before Scott started thinking seriously about the upgrade, Adlib Scotland's business development manager Barclay Dakers invited the company to visit their warehouse - also in Glasgow - and discuss potential options available through Adlib. At the time he was unaware that Scott was actually on the verge of being in the market for a new system!
Right from the first approach, Scott was impressed by Adlib's attitude. They were relaxed, friendly, highly knowledgeable in the field of live audio and totally understood where I was at - it was obvious that we were on the same wavelength, stated Scott.
He explained AudioCP's specific requirements and after listening carefully, Barclay recommended that Scott and his team consider the L-Acoustics KARA complete with SB18 subs. This is an especially good choice for covering shows and events where the PA has to be ground stacked, and for companies where it's essential to have a flexible system that sounds equally as good flown or on the floor!

Once Scott decided to go ahead with a purchase, he also looked at some other brand / supplier options, but all roads led back to Adlib and L-Acoustics.
Before he'd made his final decision, Barclay and Adlib director John Hughes visited AudioCP's facility, and it was after that meeting that Scott knew L-Acoustics was the right choice and Adlib would be an excellent supplier and partner.
