[ATTACH=CONFIG]200767.vB5-legacyid=12815[/ATTACH]7/13/2015 Los Angeles, CA – The Midas PRO X digital mixing console is working its magic on country superstar Toby Keith’s Good Times & Pickup Lines North American tour. Keith’s longtime FOH engineer, Dirk Durham has made the switch to digital, having used the Midas XL4 for many years.
When asked about the PRO X, Durham had this to say: “It wasn’t hard to learn, is responsive, and sounds great! It’s got not only width – but also plenty of depth, which is just what I was looking for. Other digital consoles just didn’t seem to have the depth, or any tone at all… just neutral. The Midas [PRO X] actually sounds like my XL4… and it’s fun to mix on!”
The PRO X control centre and industry-changing NEUTRON Audio System Engine is the ultimate step in the evolution of the Midas PRO Series. True and consistent 96 kHz sampling and 40 bit floating point processing, combine with the control surface’s fully interpolated touch sensitive controls for a smooth continuous response – and the immediacy of an analogue console. Featuring 168 simultaneous input channels and 99 time-aligned and phase-coherent buses, the PRO X is a truly impressive digital control surface for the engineer whose very livelihood depends on unparalleled functionality and reliability.
“We are indeed very excited that the Midas PRO X is the top choice of both Dirk Durham and Toby Keith for this amazing tour,” stated Graham Rowlands, Music Group VP of Sales Professional Division. “We look forward to providing the highest level of support on the tour and congratulate Mr. Keith on the new album, 35 MPH Town!”

About Midas
Midas builds live performance mixing consoles that have been used by the world’s most demanding sound engineers, performers and rental companies since 1970.

Midas engineers are also focused on implementing new control functionality and user-friendly desk operation to anticipate and accommodate the ever-evolving needs of audio professionals who specify MIDAS consoles for their major tours, festivals, international events, broadcast projects and prestigious fixed installations.
Klark Teknik was founded in 1971 and in the years immediately following, their innovative approach to design and development allowed them to introduce some truly groundbreaking designs. Klark Teknik was responsible for one of the world’s first digital delay and digital reverb units; however it was their concepts for equalisation devices that really changed the world of professional audio resulting in the DN370 and the famous DN360. Today Klark Teknik continues to bring innovation in design and dedication to engineering and sonic quality in both the analogue and digital realm of signal processing.
