HK
Audio & Lab.gruppen Monitor Feeder's 'Renegades' Tour
2010 marked the release of the Feeder’s 7th album ‘Renegades’,
seeing them embark on a sell-out international tour.
JHS Pro Audio Sales Manager Stuart McKay and Artiste Liaison Manager
Gav Coulson attended the show.
With a set list full of hits such as ‘Just the way I’m feeling’,
‘Come back around’, ‘Lost & Found’ and of
course the classic crowd pleasing singalong (“CD player, player,
player!”) ‘Buck Rogers’, Grant, Taka and Karl truly
got Leeds bouncing off the walls before taking the tone down with their
single ‘Down by the river’ from their new album.
As part of the live
set up the guys used a pair of HK Audio CT115 Contour™ Series
monitors which had been biamped off 2 channels of a Lab.gruppen fp+10000QSP
and channel 1 of a HK Audio DSM2060 speaker management processor.
Taking the drum seat for the tour is renowned session drummer Karl Brazil,
whose previous tub-thumping exploits have seen him work with the likes
of Robbie Williams, Take That, James Blunt, Elton John, Leona Lewis,
Natalie Imbruglia, Jason Mraz and James Morrison to name but a few.
Karl chose to use HK Audio monitors from the Contour Series™ (a
pair of CT118 subs and a pair of CT115 speakers) as they are renowned
for delivering superb dynamic response and faithful sound reproduction,
a must for the live stage.
"Karl is a very musical and dynamic player. It has been difficult
for us on previous shows as the drum fills provided haven't delivered
a satisfactory erformance – they just didn't respond well to his
technique. It's been brilliant since using the HK and Lab system as
it is capable of delivering the subtle detail of the quiet moments with
out loosing the mega volume, cut and clarity required for the heavier
parts. It has a smooth clear top end on the CT115 and the CT118's bottom
end is simply thunderous. The part played by the Lab Gruppen amp shouldn't
be forgotten, it's a truly brilliant amplifier." says Dan Trowhill
their monitor engineer, "the biamped CT115's running off 2 channels
of a FP+10000Q are fantastic, the level I can get out of them before
feedback is astounding".
The tour will be back in the UK in February 2011.
