This Month in Mix

The Church, one of Denver's nightspots, recently performed a major upgrade to its sound and lighting systems on all three dancefloors, replacing the existing desks with Allen & Heath Xone Series professional club mixers in the process.

Tim Hannum, of Diavolo Systems in Houston, was contracted to perform the refurbishment. Head of sound Mike McCray and club promoter Brad Roulier of Together Productions recommended that the existing mixers at both venues be replaced with Allen & Heath equipment.

McCray and the technical crew installed an Allen & Heath Xone:62 mixer in the main room at The Church. The professional club mixer provides six dual-stereo channels plus VCF filters and a powerful 4-band EQ section. "The fact that the Allen & Heath has the filters on it is a huge benefit. The filters are really clean," said McCray. "The inputs and outputs are really nice, and it's really flexible and fits in with any system that I can imagine. I've been a DJ for 13 years, so I know both sides: mixing and working with the consoles as well as installing them. That was one of the only mixers that I felt comfortable putting in with that system."

Diavolo Systems and McCray designed a custom, four-corner speaker stack system using a four-way JBL AE Line system. The system also incorporates large subwoofers and is controlled by a BSS ProSys PS-8810 system processor.
