Creamfields 2018 featured a stellar line-up of superstar DJs and artists
UK - London’s Capital Sound Hire supplied sound systems to two of the 30+ stages at his year’s Creamfields event, including a substantial Outline GTO C-12 rig for the Generator Stage.
Creamfields 2018 featured a stellar line-up of superstar DJs and artists from the worlds of EDM, house, trance, D&B, and grime, entertaining crowds of up to 70,000 across the August Bank Holiday weekend. Headliners on the Generator Stage included Vini Vici, Danny Howard, Steve Angello, Duke Dumont, Armin van Buuren, Above & Beyond and Alesso.
Capital designed a system for the event using part of their Outline inventory, deploying 12 GTO C-12 plus one GTO-DF (down-fill) cabinets per side plus four LIPF-082 modules as front-fills and 24 GTO-SUB subwoofers providing the low-frequency reinforcement essential for dance music. Capital’s design also used Outline’s latest Newton processor as the primary system controller, which fed eight Powersoft X8 amplifiers via a Dante network.
Capital’s system technician Ben Turnbull was on hand throughout the event and commented, “The system performed very well for the various electronic acts over the weekend, maintaining a high SPL and even coverage in the arena area.”
