Elit Supplies DiGiCo SD8 for Kafe Pi Group Kafe Pi Group has opened 14 new venues in Turkey, including two beach clubs as well as pubs and bars. Bronx Pi Stage is one of its latest additions. Located in the Beyoglu district in the heart of Istanbul, it features a DiGiCo SD8 digital mixing console supplied by DiGiCo's Turkish distributor, Elit Light/Sound Technologies. Kafe Pi Group predominantly targets university students, hosting a variety of events from concept parties to board game tournaments. Bronx Pi, which first opened its doors in 2009, appeals to its audience's avant-garde musical tastes, has a young, dynamic crew and stages groups from around the world. It also hosts short film screenings, dance and visual performances and theatre shows. For the sound system, Elit chose the DiGiCo SD8 because, they say, "it shows great efficiency both in performance and price and enables Bronx Pi to serve up good music six days a week, from world famous groups to amateur musicians." "Two years ago, Bronx Pi Stage was brought into the Kafe Pi Group's administration. One of the biggest changes they made was in the technical production," adds Bronx Pi Stage tonmeister, Günes Turaç. "I think Bronx Pi Stage owns one of the best sound systems in Istanbul now and DiGiCo is one of the main factors in this. It is a real pleasure to work at live music productions with an SD8. "It has been easy to work with bands from all over the world. as the SD8 provides exactly what is needed for every music genre and every band. "Moreover, through productions I have worked at this summer such as Dutch gothic metal band Epica, Sonisphere Istanbul 2011 and Judas Priest and WhiteSnake's tour, I've witnessed just how successful the SD8 has become on a global basis, and how it is now truly an industry standard." ![](/std_images/blank.gif)
