As a part of Santa Fe Opera's Technical Apprentice Program, APA's Craig Beyrooti was invited to join Head of Department at Santa Fe Opera, Karl Kern, to present a primer on digital mixing consoles featuring the Soundcraft Vi2000. The console was purchased to mix front of house and tie into their recently acquired Soundcraft Vi5000 and four stageboxes. According to Craig, "the bits didn't byte, and all was good".
