dLive Lands at O2 Brixton Academy with Yung Lean

Engineer Gustav Brunn with dLive C1500 at FOH – Yung Lean, Jordan McLachlan

Swedish rapper Yung Lean recently completed his biggest UK headline tour, Wings of Desire, at London’s O2 Academy in Brixton, while accompanied by an Allen & Heath dLive Wings set-up.

The full audio set-up is owned and used by FOH Engineer Gustav Brunn and is used for both FOH and Mon duties. It featured an A&H dLive C1500 surface fitted with a Waves 3 card at FOH position in conjunction with a CDM32 MixRack, fitted with a Dante card, and an IP6 Controller at stage position.

Brunn commented: “I was looking for a fly-in rig that we can take anywhere in the world when A&H released the new dLive series. It’s such a competent rig and really suits my needs – I can bring it with me anywhere on the planet.”

On stage, a DJ performed alongside the artists using Ableton Live with the outputs sent to the CDM32 via Dante. The A&H IP6 was used to allow the production and stage manager to make quick adjustments to the monitor mix, DJ mix and musicians IEM’s.

Brunn added: “This summer I went back and forth between several tours with Dante and MADI card and I love the flexibility of I/O with all the option cards.”

Brunn also made full use of dLive’s built-in EQ, FX, and DEEP preamps and compressors. He commented: “Everything from patching to changing the order of EQ and compression is easily accessible and easy to understand – there’s really nothing that I can’t do with this mixer.”
