UK - This year at PLASA Meyer Sound will exhibit on stand E26 with a selection of products suited for use in fixed installations and touring, including the M'elodie ultracompact high-power curvilinear array loudspeaker and Matrix3 audio show control system.

Since debuting at Frankfurt's Pro Light + Sound exhibition in February, the demand for M'elodie, the latest member of the MILO family has exceeded expectations, the company says. With its high output, small footprint, and compatibility with the MILO family of products, M'elodie offers the kind of flexibility required in corporate AV applications, while retaining the power to fill medium-sized venues on tour or in a fixed installation, says the company.

To emphasize Meyer Sound's ability to make products that fit into any environment, M'elodie will be displayed on the stand painted in a custom finish, as will two other popular installation products in the Meyer Sound line: the UPJ-1P compact VariO and MM-4 miniature wide-range loudspeakers. Other installation favorites being shown will include the M1D ultracompact curvilinear array loudspeaker, and a new grille frame for the UPA-1P compact wide coverage and -2P compact narrow coverage loudspeakers.

LCS Series sales manager Jerry Placken will spotlight the Matrix3 with in-depth demonstrations of the fully-digital system, which encapsulates the entire audio signal path (save for transducers) in a single powerful, scalable, automatable, extraordinarily flexible, and totally integrated package.

Meyer Sound's suite of support tools for design, installation, and touring will also be demonstrated on the booth, including the MAPP Online Pro acoustical prediction program, SIM 3 audio analyzer, and Galileo loudspeaker management system with Compass control software. Demonstrations will focus on the ways these tools can be used to properly design, measure, and tune systems that achieve precise coverage with unparalleled audio quality.

A visit to London is a good opportunity to take in a play in the a West End show where Meyer Sound products are widely used, as they have been since Cats opened there in 1981. Both Avenue Q and Guys and Dolls have used Meyer Sound equipment since their openings, as will upcoming productions of Spamalot, Sound of Music, and the wildly popular Wicked, which will be in previews during PLASA. Wicked features sound design by Tony Meola, who has used Meyer Sound products extensively in the show since it first opened in San Francisco.

At PLASA on the Meyer Sound stand, visitors to the show will be able to software R&D manager Perrin Meyer, tour liaison manager (and legendary FOH engineer) Buford Jones, and the whole Meyer Sound European team.
