JAPAN: Arxiduc Audio Co. has become the first company in Japan to introduce DiGiCo’s flagship Quantum 852 console, marking a significant milestone both for the Tokyo-based sound reinforcement specialist and for the Japanese live production market. The acquisition further strengthens the company’s growing investment in DiGiCo’s Quantum ecosystem, expanding its capabilities for high-end touring, live entertainment, and large-scale production applications across the region.

For Arxiduc Audio CEO Hirohide Kobayashi, the investment reflects the company’s long-standing philosophy of balancing technical performance with application-specific flexibility and client-focused system design. “The adoption of the DiGiCo Quantum range is a direct extension of this thinking,” explains Kobayashi. “By combining the highly reliable DiGiCo platform with scalability and intuitive operation alongside the expertise of our staff, we at Arxiduc Audio ensure consistently high-quality service.”

Arxiduc Audio has also positioned itself as an early adopter of immersive audio monitoring workflows through the integration of KLANG systems into its operational ecosystem. Coinciding with the introduction of the Quantum 852, the company has additionally implemented the Fourier transform.engine platform, further expanding its software-based processing flexibility while enabling faster responses to increasingly sophisticated sound design and sonic quality demands from the market. And engineers within the company have been actively deploying KLANG immersive in-ear monitoring solutions to create more natural and less fatiguing monitoring environments for performers, helping improve on-stage performance experiences during complex live productions.

“The introduction of the Quantum 852 marks both a milestone and a new beginning for Arxiduc Audio,” concludes Kobayashi. “By pursuing a synergy between cutting-edge technology and the human expertise required to maximise it, the company intends to deepen its relationships with engineers, production companies, and partner firms worldwide. As a leading DiGiCo user, Arxiduc Audio continues to strive for further service excellence and business expansion.”
