Coloursfest
Our association with colours began back in 2005 when we were sub-contracted to provide the PA for 4 of the 7 areas of the festival. Each year we were asked to provide PA for more areas and now we are the main audio contractors for the festival, providing PA for all 7 areas for the past 3 years.

The size of each area varies from 500 capacity through to 7000 capacity for the main arena. Most of the areas saw us using either Logic Systems VA Line Array systems or Funktion Ones’s Res4 Systems. For the main arena sound system we have in the past used the JBL Vertec 4889 with the current choice now being the L-Acoustics V-Dosc system.
Other events we have done for Colours have been Fantazia, Fantasy Lands, EH1 and Live at Loch Lomond.

The audio group give us a thoroughly professional job, that's why we keep on using them, again and again and again.

Nadar played a crucial part in project managing the sound and lighting installation of the event. The live event went extremely well on the night and there is no doubt that Nadar and his team played a massive part in it's success'.
