For the fourth year we were pleased to be asked back by The Fresh Group, to provide the audio design and equipment for the Santander 2012 convention at Earls Court. An innovative diamond shaped seating and stage area kept the audience close to the presenters. Using three hangs of Alcons line array, and fourteen point source Alcons speakers the audio design sounded as intimate as the show design.

We're proud and very excited to be one of the first customers in the UK to take delivery of the new Yamaha CL5 digital mixing consoles. Our initial stock of these desk went straight out for a high profile client at Excel in London. With a great new feature set and sound quality but familiar operating system, these desks are already in great demand. We've also invested substantially in new CAT6 cabling systems, racks, and industrial ethernet hubs to support these desks and enable large systems to be easily constructed and controlled.

Audio Alliance were proud to supply all the sound kit for the superb Elbow and The Halle show at the Bridgewater Hall in Manchester, as well as providing the equipment for the relay at Castlefield. Elbow engineer Danny Evans asked us to supply orchestra sub mixes and a separate mix for broadcast and relay.

We were all delighted to have been involved in this groundbreaking Manchester event that has won critical acclaim from all sources.
