DiGiCos SD Ten Takes To the Boards

DiGiCo's SD Ten digital mixing console sits perfectly between the midrange SD8 and the industry leading SD5 in terms of both price and performance. Like all DiGiCo consoles, the SD Ten and the broadcast specific SD Ten B have been designed to combine ease of use with a comprehensive feature set. New at ProLight Sound 2013 is a theatre specific counterpart, the SD Ten Theatre.

The SD Ten provides 96 channels of full processing 12 of which are full Flexi Channels - and 48 assignable busses - far more than you get with any other mid-market console currently available. The SD Ten Theatre software upgrade brings many more powerful features, providing the essential tools for programming and running a theatre production. These include the powerful Auto Update system to aid cue programming, Channel Aliases, the new Players update function and matrix nodal delays.

Auto Update provides an incredible level of control when making cue-to-cue changes, updating changes to channel parameters across all the cues automatically. When channel settings need to be different, due to a change of costume or character, the Aliases easily take care of correctly updating each set of channel parameters. This means that updates made to one character or costume for example an EQ change only affect that Alias, leaving the other Aliases unchanged.

When multiple actors are playing the same role, the Players feature takes care of populating the show with that person's unique channel settings their EQ, filters, dynamics, etc. All of the careful programming of Aliases and cue-to-cue changes are retained, just updated with the new actor specific settings.

VCA programming also becomes a breeze when using Channel Sets, which allow easy allocation of groups of channels for instance, members of the chorus or the band.

Since most theatrical productions use distributed loudspeaker systems, the addition of matrix nodal delays provides sound designers with all the control they need. With up to 1.3 seconds of delay available per node and individually recallable per cue, this allows accurate control over audio placement and time alignment.

This powerful toolset complements the standard high quality, efficient workflow processes that are built into every SD Ten, giving you the tools you need to get the job done in a logical and methodical manner, allowing you more time to concentrate on being creative.

The DiGCo SD Ten Theatre can be seen on Stand 8.0 F60 & G56 at ProLight Sound 2013.
