Once I got the full orchestra in for the initial soundcheck, I had the console up and running in 15 minutes. We then threw in the cast for a complete run-through and I had the console pretty much dialed in after the second group song - with a couple tweaks here and there to compensate for the actors who put on hats during the course of the show. Having a digital desk for this kind of thing was invaluable. I was able to store EQs for those actors in those scenes, so when the lead character puts on a hat, you can have that EQ stored on that channel to compensate. The versatility of being able to program your EQs and dynamics, scene to scene, was amazing.

After years of using one other particular brand of console I was reluctant to change, but I like the D5 and it sounds good. I love its size, I love the touch screen and I love the layout. I do not want to tempt fate, but I have not needed any customer support at all on this tour! In my past experience when working with Foo Fighters, I have had excellent service from a team of people that are genuinely interested in their product not only being successful but actually being liked, too. And I love the very English eccentricity about the people who work for DiGiCo.

Having seen the console in action, I decided that the SD8 would take Eagle Brook into the future. The SD8 has a much warmer sound than our previous console, but perhaps the best feature I appreciate is the ability to link all three consoles together. We used to have a lot of issues with the A-to-D and D-to-A conversion, whether that was for our recording process or in our broadcast suite. Now with a frame surface dropped into our master control room, having the ability to access both frames and grab inputs from either makes for a very powerful tool.

We specified the D1 because it is a great sounding console, because the space it has to fit into is very tight so the small footprint of the D1 is good and because of the price
