VDC designs custom stagebox for Murt Whelan Sound

VDC Trading

In late 2021, VDC was approached by Murt Whelan Sound to create a 48-channel stagebox which will be core to much of the company's work in 2022.

Murt Whelan Sound Ltd (MWS) is a pro-audio rental and installation company based in Limerick in the Republic of Ireland.  It provides professional services nationwide and is a one stop production shop, offering support from initial concept and design right through to the realisation and management of any large-scale event.

Well-known for its high quality creative solutions, MWS constantly invests in responsive, state-of-the-art equipment to ensure it stays ahead of the market and exceeds its customer expectations.  It therefore approached VDC Trading to design a custom 19” rack mountable, 48 channel stagebox, which will be central to many of the concerts it plans to do in 2022.

The stagebox has three passive splits for FOH / MON and REC, on 24 channel VDMs.  The system also has 4 x SAT inputs on VDM 37 s to patchable XLR tails and 12 channel multicores and SAT boxes.

Adam Jafrabadi, VDC’s export director, worked closed with Carmen Wagner, VDC’s head of production to make this request a reality within a two week timescale.  

Adam commented: “We have a long standing relationship with MWS and have built similar systems for MWS’ business in the past.  We therefore had a very good idea of what Murt and the team wanted.  Because they have the capability and expertise to deliver flawless projects, every piece of kit needs to be work at a high level to ensure an exceptional level of service.  We are proud that we were able to deliver what MWS needed in a relatively short timescale and look forward to working with the business again in the future!”
