Applications
The PRO X is the ‘work horse’ mid- to high-end MIDAS Digital Console System,
akin to the ‘industry standard’ Heritage 3000. Although the PRO X is designed for
the traditional touring live sound environment, it is also ideal for medium-sized
theatre, small house of worship installations and broadcast. So, being a truly
multi-functional console in the MIDAS tradition, the PRO X is suitable for many
applications, such as:
• Live sound touring MON or FOH duties.
• Live sound small theatre MON or FOH duties.
• Live sound house of worship MON or FOH duties.
• Live sound broadcast mixer with basic 5.1 surround capabilities
and monitoring.
System components
The PRO X is a modular system, which allows for some variations in physical
placement and system size.
The standard PRO Series touring system package is shipped in a single, easily
portable ight case, with an equally portable, ight-cased control surface and
minimal cabling. The following table lists all of the available equipment options
for the PRO X Live Audio System package.
