Sound for the Royal Launch of the Cutty Sark – one of the fastest tea clippers in history – was handled by Bristol-based event production company SXS. The event was attended by the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh, and took place at the Cutty Sark Gardens in Greenwich.

Over 50 input channels were fed into an iLive T112 for the main mix. An iLive T80 was used for a separate live recording mix for later publication.

Johnny Palmer, production manager at SXS commented, “The iLive has become an extension of our team. Many of our projects have complex routing demands and it is important to me that I can provide other contractors with the feeds they need quickly and efficiently on-site. With the 24 outputs on the iDR48 we are never short of outputs to media break outs, foldback, external recordings and audience zones. We simply could not offer this level of flexibility with even the largest analogue consoles.”
