Saga-Cuisines of India, a Michelin star restaurant in Gurgaon, India recently celebrated its opening. To ensure that Saga would be an attractive venue for artists and bands, owner Vishal Anand invested in a professional sound system driven by a new S21 digital mixing desk from DiGiCo.
To purchase the mixing console, the management of Saga turned to Sahil Sharma who is a well-known audio engineer for the Indian metal band Bloodywood . He is also the audio consultant and mix engineer of the classy venue. Sahil shares, “We needed a small format console with maximum I/O for this venue installation. At our price point, there is practically nothing that comes to the quality and convenience of DiGiCo S21. The new venue will host various music bands, dance shows and multi-genre festivals. The S21 provides more than enough IEM and wedge mixes for any act that will happen at Saga. Thanks to Hi-Tech Audio Systems for supplying the console and these guys are just a call away to help.”
“We have provided S21 with D-2 rack that has been set up for ultimate ease of use for the in-house engineer”, explains Vanshaj Sharma, Application Engineer for DiGiCo, Hi-Tech Audio Systems. He continues, “The console offers everything that can put into use for band performance in a venue like Saga. It’s a potential opportunity for club and restaurant venues to invest on an intuitive and powerful mixer with a compact footprint like S21.”
The pandemic also impacted the Indian hospitality industry among other various industries. Slowly restaurants, clubs and pubs are coming back to action which created new opportunities for business owners to open up more mid-sized venues to attract more guests. Open air live concerts are still restricted in Delhi-NCR region and other metro cities of India. Thus venues like Saga are hosting limited capacity live shows for their guests under strict regulations.
“With the newly purchased S21, Saga can be one of the premium venues to deliver ace audio output for bands and artists. It is our utmost responsibility to support and aware each of our clients about technology and inventory updates. We believe with this approach we can provide the best of DiGiCo in India”, says Nirdosh Aggarwal, Director Sales of Hi-Tech Audio Systems.
Rajan Gupta, Managing Director of Hi-Tech Audio Systems concludes, “We are really delighted to provide DiGiCo S21 to Saga-Cuisines of India restaurant. Such business deals at this time of crisis boosts our morale to provide the best to new as well as our existing clients. I hope this year is productive for us and our brands too as we are determined to reach new milestones in India.”
