Allen & Heath Nominated for NAMM TEC Awards for Outstanding Technical Achievement Allen & Heath is once again among the pro audio and sound production nominees spread across the 23 technical achievement categories comprising the 35th annual NAMM TEC Awards. With its dLive Mixing System joiningfive others in the Large Format Console category, Allen & Heath's SQ Digital Mixer Series has found a spot among the six contenders within the Small Format Console category. "This year the NAMM TEC Awards have attracted quite a number of truly innovative submissions," Allen & Heath USA marketing manager Jeff Hawley said recently. "As one of our industry's most notable showcases, the entries have grown in both number and the degree of technical evolution. We're seeing future trends playing out across this stage that are unique, and sometimes just plain amazing." Presented annually by The NAMM Foundation in conjunction with The NAMM Show, the NAMM TEC Awards recognize the individuals, companies, and technical innovations behind the audio heard in recordings, live performances, films, television, video games, and multimedia. Final voting for this installment of the enduring awards show begins this November. Winners will be announced in Anaheim, California on Saturday, January 18, 2020. The SQ Series won in the 34th TEC Awards Small Format Console category, along with seven other award wins last awards season, including the MMR Dealers' Choice Awards "Product of the Year." "Both of the major Allen & Heath product updates nominated for TEC Awards were largely focused on live monitor mixing workflows and features," notes Hawley. "The SQ Series V1.3 brought software additions like a listen bus and external input to PAFL, which paired with new I/O hardware and network cards to expand FOH / monitor split options. Monitor engineers also loved the new MCA (mix control association) and talkback group functionality in dLive V1.8. Our teams pushed the tech envelope this past year and it is an honor to be in such good company once again." The 35th Annual NAMM TEC Awards will be held in conjunction with the 2020 NAMM Show in Anaheim, California. Tickets for the awards ceremony may be purchased at www.tecawards.org.
