Yamaha Digital Dozen Has The Novelty Factor
Leading French rental company Groupe Novelty has over 40 years experience in providing audio and visual solutions to a wide range of clients. A recent investment in 12 Yamaha QL1 digital consoles has helped to keep the company’s audio rental stock right up to date.
Operating out of five French offices, one in London and one in Brussels, Groupe Novelty works on over 6000 projects every year. These include some of Europe’s highest profile corporate events, fashion shows for leading designers and brands, car launches, exhibitions, awards shows and live music.
Many of the events Novelty works on need a high quality audio mixer in a compact format, which is one of several reasons why the company has invested in 12 Yamaha QL1s for its rental stock.
“The QL1 is the ideal size and format for many of the events we work on and it is an exceptionally cost-effective solution,” says Jérôme Gasselin, Directeur technique at Novelty. “In addition, most sound engineers and technicians knows Yamaha mixers, so they are very used operating them. “Another reason for purchasing the QL1s was that we use Yamaha CL consoles and R-series i/o units on our events. Adding the QL1s means we can also integrate them easily into larger systems using Dante and the wide compatibility offered by the onboard MY-series card slot.” .
