Midas Pro6 Headlines At Poland’s Premier Theatre

Zbigniew Hubner Theatre, which was founded in 1945, has long been a focal point of Polish theatrical culture, attracting leading artists, directors, musicians, choreographers and stage designers both nationally and internationally. The venue has a long history of using Midas consoles, with a Midas Legend 3000 and a Venice installed in theatres two and three respectively.

Sebastian Kuźma, the theatre’s head sound engineer, chose the Pro6 having previously used the Midas Legend 3000. He was particularly impressed with innovations such as the ability to control the time of crossfades between two scenes with one simple jog wheel.

“I’ve always been a big fan of Midas, the flexibility and reliability of their equipment and, of course, the Midas sound,” said Kuźma. “But the Pro6 has taken things forward again. We host a huge range of productions, with many different and complex audio demands, but the Pro6’s sound quality, adaptability and user-friendly design will see us far into the future.”

The theatre’s three performance spaces encompass all the performing arts, from drama through to music and dance. Audio Plus has provided training on all three Midas consoles for the theatre’s sound team, and is pleased they have made the upgrade to digital.

“At Audio Plus we believe that the new Pro Series of consoles from Midas makes life easier in the theatre because of the ability to expand the system by adding I/O boxes, plus the ability to network via the open AES50 protocol,” said Audio Plus’ technical support/sales manager Antoni Paluszkiewicz. “Digital life has never been so easy!”
