The ONE WORLD, ONE FAMILY concert sets a Guinness World Record, powered by the collaboration of Hi-Tech Audio Visual and Reynold’s Sound Solutions

Published on 1^st December, 2025

India’s live entertainment industry is entering a defining age—an era where audiences expect global-standard immersion, artists demand limitless creative freedom, and productions must deliver precision that matches the world’s top touring markets. Stadium tours, arena musicals, multi-genre festivals, broadcast spectaculars, devotional mega gatherings, global artist tours, and grand ceremonial events such as IPL and ISL have collectively reshaped expectations: India is no longer asking, “Can we?”—India is proving, “We already can.”

Nowhere is this transformation more visible than in Southern India, home to some of the most technically progressive live productions in Asia. Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Chennai, Kochi, Coimbatore, Secunderabad, and Trivandrum have delivered performances that rival global touring standards: Ed Sheeran’s Mathematics Tour India, Lollapalooza India, Echoes of Earth Bengaluru, Sunburn Arena, NH7 Weekender, Isha Mahashivratri 2025, AR Rahman Live, Ilaiyaraaja Symphony, Sid Sriram Arena Shows, Shreya Ghoshal Live, and Deep Purple Live Bengaluru. These shows have pushed India into a future where artistry and engineering operate in seamless harmony.

It is within this momentum that Reynolds Sound & Lighting Services Pvt. Ltd., Bengaluru—long recognised for pioneering technological excellence—has become the first in South India to acquire the DiGiCo Quantum 852 and Quantum 112 digital mixing consoles. The landmark deployment is empowered and technically supported by Hi-Tech Audio & Image LLP, New Delhi, the Exclusive India Partner & Distributor for DiGiCo.

Felix Remedios, Managing Director, Reynolds Sound & Lighting Services Pvt. Ltd., said, “This purchase is not about acquiring gear—it is about expanding possibilities. The DiGiCo Quantum 852 is built for the world’s most expressive, complex, and technically demanding productions. Introducing it to South India signals that our artists, our engineers, and our audiences deserve global-grade sonic precision. At Reynolds, we believe in leading with intention, not fashion—and this investment marks a defining moment in India’s journey toward international touring standards.”

As India’s productions grow more ambitious, the need for future-ready, fail-safe, expressive consoles becomes non-negotiable. That need reached its greatest test this year during one of the most monumental live productions ever staged in India.

ONE WORLD ONE FAMILY 2025 — A GUINNESS WORLD RECORD TRIUMPH:

In November 2025, Reynolds and Hi-Tech collaborated on the historic One World One Family concert—an extraordinary cultural symphony uniting 450 musicians from over 40 countries on one stage. Its artistic significance, scale, and engineering complexity earned the production a GUINNESS WORLD RECORD, positioning India at the forefront of global event innovation.

For this landmark achievement:

• The DiGiCo Quantum 852 took command of 220+ live input channels at Front of House
• The Quantum 112 anchored the Production Console
• The Quantum 5 powered monitors and broadcast feeds

The deployment demanded flawless engine redundancy, Optocore stability, clocking accuracy, signal integrity, and seamless coordination between FOH, monitors, and broadcast—all executed under international scrutiny.

Remedios continues: “Watching the Quantum ecosystem power a Guinness World Record with perfect stability—mixing over 250 channels, supporting a 200-piece orchestra, and uniting musicians from around the world—was one of the proudest moments in our history. The system didn’t just perform; it elevated the entire production. This is why Quantum exists, and why Reynolds chooses it. It validated every decision we’ve made.”

India’s live production ecosystem is expanding rapidly. Venues are modernising, engineers are upskilling, and rental companies are preparing to meet international riders with confidence. To accelerate this growth, Hi-Tech Audio & Image LLP is deepening its investment in technical education, training academies, certification programs, and nationwide support infrastructure—building an ecosystem that is not just equipped, but empowered.

Rajan Gupta — CEO & Founder, Hi-Tech Audio & Image LLP. Relates that: “Our partnership with DiGiCo has always been rooted in capability-building, not transactional supply. Reynolds’ Quantum deployment—especially during the Guinness World Record production—is a reminder of what India can achieve when talent and technology converge. Their decision to invest ahead of the curve sets a new standard for the country. This milestone proves India is not simply matching global touring expectations—we are preparing to become a destination the world respects and celebrates. Quantum technology doesn’t just enhance sound; it enables India to perform on the world stage.”

As India steps into its next chapter—defined by arena pop, classical crossovers, global festivals, spiritual mega-events, and world tours—its success will rely on unified engineering ecosystems, visionary leadership, and platforms built for tomorrow’s complexity. According to Nirdosh Aggarwal — Managing Partner, Hi-Tech Audio & Image LLP: “The ‘One World One Family’ Guinness event was a defining reminder of what India can achieve when planning, technology, and purpose align. Supporting the operational strategy behind a production of that scale—and watching the Quantum ecosystem power 200 musicians from over 40 nations with flawless stability—proved that India is not preparing for the future; India is already part of it. What impressed me most was the confidence with which Indian engineers worked with the Quantum 852 and 112—solving challenges, not creating them. This is the India we believe in. At Hi-Tech, our mission is to anticipate market needs and build long-term capability. The Quantum series enables rental companies to diversify, scale, and deliver reliably across every format. We are committed to strengthening the ecosystem with training, readiness, and partnerships that help India not just grow—but lead.”

With world-record-breaking productions, top-tier touring compatibility, and bold investment from companies like Reynolds, India is no longer following global benchmarks—it is helping define them. The country is poised to become a preferred stop for the world’s largest tours and the birthplace of productions that push the boundaries of what live entertainment can be.

In the end, Felix Remedios said to the industry: “The world has now seen what India can do. A Guinness World Record, a 200-piece global orchestra, 250+ channels, and a Quantum 852 at the heart of it—all executed flawlessly. This is India’s moment. To every rental company and engineer: invest boldly, learn relentlessly, and create without fear. The Quantum revolution is here—and India is leading it.”
