28.01.2010: Depeche Mode uses Sequoia to record concerts on the current tour
Berlin, January 28, 2010
Starting from June 2009, Depeche Mode has recorded all concerts on the current "Tour of the Universe 2009 / 2010" with Sequoia. To this day, the software has been used during more than 70 concerts in Europe, the USA and Latin America. For each performance, a total of 64 tracks are recorded using an RME MADI card on a PC from Digital AudionetworX, Berlin.
Most live concert recordings may be purchased online on the band website. Some of the recordings have also been used for radio and TV broadcasts. Anthony King, the Depeche Mode live sound engineer, created the mixes completely in Sequoia.
King is also responsible for the recording during concerts: "The combination of RME, the Digital AudionetworX PC, and Sequoia has proved to be extremely stable and reliable. It is sometimes impossible to pay much attention to a recording system, especially in a live situation. For this reason, it is even more important that the software works without glitches and may be configured quickly. We are very pleased with the results."
