FBP Systems, an AV systems designer and integrator with offices in Tulsa and Las Vegas, used just four Bose RoomMatch modules - an RM5520, RM7020, RM9020 and RM12020 loudspeaker, and a pair of RMS215 subwoofers - to create a single point-source cluster mounted above and just ahead of the pulpit that evenly covers all of the church's audience areas. The system was designed and modelled using Bose ControlSpace s
Commenting on the introduction of the new pricing, international business development, sales and marketing director, Paul Brewis, said: "We are achieving major productivity gains at our Ningbo facility, for both Studiomaster and Carlsbro lines. Improved production capacity coming on-stream is delivering significant economies of scale and as a result of which we are offering lower dealer pricing and higher margins, allowing retailers to offer more attractive pricing to their customers.
"These production price reductions are as much as 20% in some cases and at the same time we are offering increased dea
It boasts a new, cast aluminium, eight-spoke frame designed to reduce rear reflections, gain in structural strength and contain basket weight. The 18HW1070 is equipped with triple demodulation for lower THD, with an inductance reading of 1.68 mH.
With a Maximum Physical Excursion of +/- 30mm, which combined with the Thiele & Small parameters, especially EBP, Vas and BL, make it ideal for very low tuned vented cabinets, the company claims.
Yet another important innovation is in the magnet assembly, which combines two fundamental aspects. The motor's ability to generate an extremely intense yet very linear magnetic flux helps sustain great acoustic pressure for deepe
The sound system was designed and installed by the Burbank team of Electrosonic, Inc., which handled AV design and integration for the entire complex - including the adjacent 1933 Beverly Hills Post Office, fully restored and repurposed as a grand lobby, café, gift shop, classroom and office space, and home to the 150-seat Lovelace Studio T
Kevin Nair, MD of Team 108 explained their choice of Pan Beam, "With steerable columns being established in the market place over the last 10-plus years, there are several companies having engineered their own solutions as part of their product line-up trying to get their slice of this growing market.

It also houses offices for the Center for Multicultural and International Affairs, the Student Government Association and Visitor Information. But the heart of this multi-use building is its 1,300-seat auditorium, which is used for concerts and theatrical presentations. The auditorium's sound system was in need of an upgrade, and the university put out a request-for-proposal. The system chosen to take the auditorium into the future included RoomMatch loudspeakers and PowerMatch amplifiers from Bose Professional Systems.
Each day of the ASD Winter School features a theme - such as Content Creation, Radio Mics, Electro-Acoustics and Emergent Technologies - with between three and five seminars on that theme each day. The seminars cover a huge range of topics and are led by industry experts. The seminars are free to attend for any student in full-time education, and of course, for all ASD members.
ASD Chair, Gareth Fry said: "The aim of the Winter School is to give attendees the opportunity to learn more in one week than you could in the rest of the year! The seminars assume no previous knowledge on any subject but take you to a deep understanding of eac
"People come to enjoy a beer or a glass of wine in the afternoon, meaning that the audio system only needs to provide low-key reinforcement during daytime hours," says Lars Christensen, venue owner. "At at night, appearances by live bands and DJs call for something altogether more powerful. The system had to be truly multi-purpose, and I am delighted that the Meyer Sound equipment fits the bill perfectly."
Peter Petersen, productions director for PRIME A/S, provided the venue's main lounge space with 12 UP-4XP loudspeakers, four UPA-1P loudspeakers, two 600-HP subwoofers, and three MM-10XP 48V subwoofers. Pow

For just £1000, UK manufacturers wishing to visit the show but who prefer not to take exhibition space can utilise the meeting room and translation facilities of the Great British Audio Embassy and have their brand logos displayed in a British Brand Gallery, share in the networking events organized with the UKTI in Sao Paulo and participate in the bi-lingual brochure to be available on the booth.
The APRS, working with PLASA and the MIA, have helped a number of UK manufacturers to put a toe into the water of the Brazilian market.

The system design was tasked to Martin Van Dijk, principal designer of the Toronto-based consulting firm Engineering Harmonics. The requirement was to evenly cover all seating areas, including 180 hard-to-reach seats in the choral loft behind the stage. The system also had to work at various heights, as the hall features an adjustable canopy to optimize reflections for different events.
"It was an extraordinary challenge," says Paul Alegado, project manager and associate designer for Engineering Harmonics. "During the review process, the manufacturers
Hurst has been the band's show designer for five years and was asked to come up with something awesome and fitting for the occasion and an incendiary set by The Prodigy.
Hurst took a photographic backdrop of a Harrier 'Jump' Jet as his creative starting point and designed the lighting rig - both over the stage and above the audience - to give the impression of the O2 being a giant aircraft hangar, and develop a big, bold and bombastic show aesthetic.
The rig had to be installed in a day, so Hurst had to ensure that the design was practical to get-in and rig a large amount of kit and be up and ready for doors. To this end, he also spent five days pre-programing in HSL's WYSI

"Sundays are different every week, we can have a guitar player leading our services, a piano player, or our Pastor. On most Sundays we have a hundred or more choir members," relates Jeff Owen, technical director.
From traditional services to concerts and community events, this is a multi-purpose worship venue with several spaces needing flexible, reliable and crystal clear audio signals. Charged with delivering a solution was Doug Windell, design manager of Ace Audio in Hutto, Texas.

"I've mixed in my usual style of using a DiGiCo console; making it work for its money," smiles Baggy, who has to account for a four-piece band and three backing vocalists as well as Jessie herself. "I doubled up on quite a lot of channels for Jessie, so I was using all but six of the faders."
As well as monitoring, Baggy also had a comprehensive talkback system set up. This allowed him and the band members to all talk to each other during the show, without distracting the leading lady and he could also talk directly to Jessie when required.
Sound quality and flexibility are a given, but what Baggy appreciates most about the SD5 is i
Special guest Katherine Jenkins delivered a stirring operatic performance - as Matt Manasse's company Bluefish Audio faced the inherent reflections of the glazed dome roof in this landmark London skyscraper, and the difficulty of manually humping all the gear 180m up to level 40.
Fortunately for Manasse's team, the MLA Mini is both lightweight and portable. A top line sound engineer in his own right, he was already familiar with Martin Audio's compact philosophy when he became the first sound engineer to air the W8LM Mini Line Array - on tour with Katie Melua way
Exhibit-goers begin by rediscovering the nature of energy in the dynamic Energy Garden area, where they can transform energy from one form to another via a series of electro-mechanical devices and immerse themselves in a short film that dramatically presents the story of energy in our world. Guests then convert their knowledge into action via a multi-player simulation game in which they design an energy-saving car, house, neighbourhood, transportation system and city power grid.
Electrosonic teamed with exhibit designers Evidence Design, interac
"The sound was spectacular, and incredibly even for an in-the-round setup," says Brendan Hoffman, FOH engineer and production manager. "From FOH at one end of the arena up to the stage and the higher seating sections, differences were negligible. It was a gut punch on the floor and a gut punch at the top level."
Supplied by VER Tour Sound, the Leo system comprised 96 Leo-M line array loudspeakers deployed in four arrays of 14-each for long-end throws, an
Before opening in March of 2013, Game Seven Grill underwent a major renovation including new seating, championship décor and a new sound and video system featuring Community CP6 pendant loudspeakers for the interior and R.25-94T loudspeakers for the Grill's outdoor plaza seating.
