Heale's first experience taking the PRO2 on the road was for Family Life's youth theatre workshops. Our other engineer, Jeremy Hill, took it out for a concert event, loved the sound, and said he really enjoyed mixing on it.' 'Obviously, there's a learning curve there but we were up and running fairly quickly. 'We knew it would be challenging to switch from analog to digital, no matter what console we chose,' he relates. The transition to digital proved to be easier than Heale had feared. So when it came time to pull the trigger, we knew we wanted the Midas.' I could really see how much time and effort this would save us. When we went through the demo on automation, I was very impressed with how powerful it is, and how easy it is to use. 'Changing setups for different theatre scenes within a production is always a challenge. 'We do a lot of concerts, but also a lot of theatre,' explains Heale. The clincher, however, was the PRO2's easy, intuitive automation system.

Having compressors and gates for every channel, plus the EQs, is a real luxury compared to our old rack of outboard gear.' Using POP groups and VCAs to group your channels just felt very natural. But what really impressed me was the workflow. 'It was everything I had been told about and read about the Midas sound, and then some.

'It had a nice, warm, full sound to it,' he recalls. One thing that was instantly clear at the demo was the improvement in sound quality that the PRO2 would provide. And it was definitely the demo that sold me.' 'But it's a big investment, so I wanted to get my hands on it before committing to it. 'In doing the research on everything available in our price range, the PRO2 really stood out as having everything I could think to ask for,' says Heale. Everyone had told me that Midas would be too expensive, so we were thrilled when we found out about the PRO2 coming out.'įamily Life's requirements for their new console included 56 or more input channels, ease of operation, fast setup, easy transport, enough outputs to handle both the front-of-house PA and monitor feeds, and of course, great sound. 'We knew that a digital workflow would make things a lot easier, and looked at all the options in our price range. 'We were replacing a 10-year old analog console with 56 inputs,' notes Jamie Heale, sound engineer and IT assistant at Family Life. To accommodate productions both at its Bath, New York campus and on the road throughout upstate New York and Pennsylvania, Family Life selected the Midas PRO2 digital mixing system.

With a wide-ranging media ministry spanning music, theatre, and broadcast, Family Life is a non-denominational Christian organization that uses the creative arts to spread its message across upstate New York and Pennsylvania.
