Oh technology, how you've changed things.
Stuart Mclean's Vinyl Cafe was in with Bill Herault providing sound including a new Allen & Heath iLive console. Doing both FOH and 6 mix stage monitors, this is what his complete patch looked like.
That's one Ethernet cable for his "Snake" and one coaxial SPDIF cable for the L/R out to the house 5D.
The desk came right out of the case for setup. Simple and completely effective.
