Viking Sound
& Light Ltd. are pleased to announce the addition of the new Yamaha M7CL
Digital Live
Sound Mixing with the Comfort and Efficiency of AnalogThe M7CL series is a digital live-sound console
that carries on the digital evolution from the acclaimed PM1DV2 and PM5D
consoles. It includes an impressive array of advanced concepts such as the
"Centralogic™" control interface that makes it as easy and intuitive
to use as an analog console, and in-depth access management facilities that
will be particularly appreciated in installations. The M7CL is familiar and
comfortable to use, offering a level of convenience that overturns the
preconception that "digital is difficult". A surprising range of
functions that you would normally have to supply in the form of peripheral
equipment is built in, and all of this is provided in a space that is
dramatically less than an analog console of similar scope. The M7CL is the
ideal digital mixing console for medium size live sound applications that have
previously been handled by analog gear.
Centralogic™ and Selected Channel Control - Two Intuitive
Approaches to MixingCentralogic™ is an innovative Yamaha approach to
console operation that allows total control from an easily accessible central
area. Blocks of eight channels can be brought to the center of the console via
simple navigation keys, and operated via a central interface including a
touch-panel display and encoders directly below the display. Yamaha's acclaimed
Selected Channel interface is also implemented, providing a range of operating
options that make this advanced digital console as easy and intuitive as an
analog console to use in live sound applications

UK: Steve Williams’s Viking Sound & light provided the audio system for Sting’s celebration party, following the musician’s honorary doctorate of music awarded by the University of Newcastle.
Held at the Baltic Centre for Contemporary Art, just across
the river Tyne in Gateshead, Viking Sound & Light supplied a compact FOH
system encom-passing two Turbosound TQ-445DP’s and two TQ-425’s to act as the
ideal P.A.
Entertainment was provided by The Gerry Richardson Trio and
various members of The Newcastle Big Band, an out fit whom Sting often played
with before being catapulted to fame with The Police. Williams is pictured here
with a certain Gorden Sumner.
