3 min read

In the world of live events, reliability and impact are everything. Audiences in 2026 expect more than just a "show" - they expect an immersive, cinematic experience. To meet that demand, we’ve overhauled our inventory with a focus on high-stakes performance and seamless integration.

From crystal-clear 4K video to a distributed audio network, here is a look at the gear now powering our premier event productions, ranked by how they transform your next show.

1. The Sonic Punch: RCF NXL & SUB AX Series

Sound is the first thing an audience notices and the last thing they forget. We’ve invested in RCF’s latest active point source technology for maximum impact.

6x RCF NXL14-A: These slim column speakers provide surgical horizontal coverage and incredible vocal clarity while remaining nearly invisible on stage.
2x RCF SUB 18-AX: These provide the "heartbeat" of the event. With built-in Bluetooth control and factory-tuned presets, we can optimise the low-end for any room in minutes.

2. The Invisible Link: Shure SLXD+ Wireless

Nothing kills a presentation faster than a mic dropout. We’ve added 8 channels of Shure SLXD+ to ensure total rock-solid reliability.

ShowLink Control: Using the 2026 update, we can now remotely manage transmitter gain and frequencies from the booth while the speaker is on stage—zero interruptions, zero stress.

3. The Brains: A&H Avantis Solo & Blackmagic ATEM

To manage complex shows, you need a powerful "command centre."

Allen & Heath Avantis Solo: This 96kHz console manages 64 channels of audio with virtually zero latency. Paired with 4x DX168 expanders and a DX Hub, we can place stage boxes exactly where they are needed across the venue.
Blackmagic ATEM Mini Extreme ISO G2: This allows us to switch and stream with ease. It captures ISO feeds of every camera, making it simple to deliver high-quality highlight reels immediately after the event ends.

4. The Vision: Canon 4K PTZ & Massive 75" Screens

Visual engagement is non-negotiable. Our new video suite ensures every seat is the best seat in the house.

3x Canon CR-N300s: These 4K PTZ cameras, controlled by the RC-IP100 joystick, allow for cinematic multi-cam angles without the need for bulky camera crews cluttering the stage.
Dual 75" Production Screens: High-brightness, professional displays that ensure your slides, videos, and "IMAG" (Image Magnification) are crisp and vibrant, even in daylight-flooded rooms.

5. The Atmosphere: IP-Rated Chauvet Professional Lighting

We’ve moved beyond basic "on/off" lighting to a fully atmospheric rig.

Ovation E-910FC IP: Full-colour profiles that paint the stage in rich hues. They are IP65 rated, making them perfect for both indoor ballrooms and outdoor festivals.
Ovation F-415VW: Variable white Fresnels that provide the soft, broadcast-quality skin tones necessary for high-end video recording.
Chauvet Well Fit X (6-Pack): These battery-powered, chrome-finished uplights can be dropped anywhere to instantly change the mood of a room without a single cable.

6. The Backbone: Dedicated Computing & 2km of Infrastructure

A show is only as strong as its weakest link. We have built a robust workstation fleet to ensure 100% uptime and precise control.

The Lighting & Presentation Hybrid: A dedicated touchscreen laptop running Avolites Titan Go, giving us tactile, finger-tip control over the entire lighting rig while simultaneously handling sleek keynote presentations.
The Master Control Station: A high-spec production machine designed for mission-critical show control software and visual playback.
The Apple Suite: We’ve integrated a MacBook Pro and MacBook Air into the workflow for seamless video handling and QLab triggers.
2km of Connectivity: We’ve modernised our entire loom with two kilometres of specialised cable stock to ensure signal integrity over any distance:
- Network & Audio XLR: For our high-fidelity 96kHz digital snake and Dante feeds.
- SDI & HDMI: Providing lag-free 4K video routing from stage to screen.
- Power: Robust distribution to keep the entire rig running safely, indoors or out.

What This Means for Your Next Event

This investment isn’t just about the specs—it’s about peace of mind. By choosing high-performance, integrated gear, we reduce setup times, eliminate technical friction, and elevate the production value of every project we touch.
