      Hi,
      Wow it's pretty impressive! I'm developing my first permanent installation myself (which will be quite smaller :) ) and I wondered if you had any feedback three years later about the installation? Wondered as well which audio interfaces you chose which would be reliable in the long run? Thank you! Had a quick look at your website, good job!
