In 1998, the non-profit organization in the heart of the East Village opened the 200- seat live performance venue known as Joe's Pub.
Joe's Pub at The Public is one of New York City's most celebrated venues for emerging and established performance artists. Named for Public Theatre founder Joe Papp, Joe's Pub plays a vital role in The Public's mission of supporting young artists while providing established artists with an intimate space
The event will give attendees a real insight into how state-of-the-art technologies can increase productivity and communication between teams, as well as how new collaborative technologies can improve business performance.
During the Technology Day, a member of the Electrosonic team will guide each visitor through the exhibition, visiting each supplier to discuss the new technologies and how they can be integrated into any current facility.
Unlike other technology exhibitions, the event will showcase full solutions as opposed to individual products. Attendees will have the opportunity to see complete, real-t
Local AV contractor Halogen Audio was asked to install some loudspeakers for the restaurant's external pavement areas. As a long-standing user of QSC products, and mindful of the restaurant's north-facing waterfront location, Halogen's Rick Senekal chose models from the QSC AcousticDesign series for their durable construction and ability to endure constant exposure to the wind, sun, salt air and water. After a short while, the venue's management
Raj's experience includes running a venue in Shoreditch, giving him a clear perspective on what he wanted from The Laundry's new sound system:
"We wanted a high quality sound with great separation that would also give us flexibility, in terms of its size and portability. With such a mix of events in the basement, we need to be able to move the boxes around easily and even store them when
The marquee required a discreet solution for both DJ playback and live band reinforcement that needed to adhere to strict noise regulations regarding SPL. To tackle these issues a distributed system was chosen to achieve maximum coverage at lower SPLs.
Having completed successful installations using KV2's passive ESD Series Saturn AV director Olly Smith had no hesitation in returning to the product range.
Eighteen KV2 Audio two-way 6" ESD 6's were distributed around the marquee and were chosen because of their small profile design that offers an amazing full range output. The wide yet controlled 100 x 100 degree dispersion covered the large area whilst reducing the projection of sound beyond the required distance.
The LR24 combines a HiFi-grade sound quality with very high SPL capabilities. Loaded with Alcons' proprietary pro-ribbon technology for mid and high frequencies, the LR24 offers very fast impulse response with full-dynamics, up-to-90% less distortion under lowest power-compression. The all-natural (Isophasic) cylindrical wavefront of the pro-ribbon HF transducer enables a precise pattern control, without any distortion-inducing horn constructions, says the company.
Philip 'Dr. Phil' de Haan, head of Alcons R&D and initiator of multiple patents, comments, "Until now, this extraordinary high level of precision in sound quality was not obtainable in sound reinforceme
Nexo's Concert Sound team encouraged the STM owners to share their successes with the system in all kinds of musical applications, from simple acoustic jazz concerts to one of the USA's top-grossing concert tours (Kenny Chesney). With owners reporting on several events attracting upwards of 120,000, STM is justifying NEXO's claims that it will perform as a large-format system as well as scale down for smaller, more intimate shows.

"MDG has successfully specified Meyer Sound products on a number of projects in the past where performance was critical, so it was logical for us to consider them again for The Dubai Mall," says Ged King, CEO and founder of MDG, a company with extensive experience in shopping mall AV design installations.

Thousands of visitors descend on the Waagplein (Weighing Square) to take in the delights of the four hundred year old market, held every Friday morning during the summer months. Exactly the right spot for a venue offering all day food and night time club entertainment to establish itself. A decision as sharp, in fact, as a really ripe wedge of aged Gouda.
On the western side of the ancient square is Mojo's, boasting a vintage façade that has not altered in decades but hiding a modern interior of glass and steel within. After hearing a d&b audiotechnik Q-Series system in a local club where he was particularly struck by the directional accuracy of the loudspeakers as well as
The loudspeakers for the new Yoyo space are not the first to be installed in the Palais de Tokyo. In early 2013, the installation company Nanolink fitted a Geo S8 compact line array into the übercool Monsieur Bleu restaurant and bar. With its 7m height, the venue was able to accommodate Nexo CD12 subbass cabinets in the ceiling. GEO S12 cabinets were installed outside on the famous terrace, with its enviable view of the Eiffel Tower.

Collaborating with artists on areas such as design and installation, Zafra's years of experience means that these days, he has no trouble in identifying the right gear to fit the latest job. When he was recently tasked with working on the Milano jazz club installation project in Barcelona, he could think of only one loudspeaker brand that would meet the high expectations of the job at hand.
The Milano Jazz Club is famous throughout the city and Spain as a whole, and is one of the most prestigious music venues for Jazz aficionados in the Catalan region and beyond. For a live music venue such as this, sound is everything, and can define the venue's reputation, as well as that of the p
Sennheiser, known for their long-standing support of various educational bodies, have provided generous prizes for first, second and third place. Finalists will be notified in October 2014 and will then be invited to take part in the OSEMP showcase event in Oxford on 8 November 2014, with the three winners being announced at the conclusion of the concert, partly on the basis of their performances.

Apart from DiGiCo's sonic performance and features, the International acceptability, software upgrades, service and back up made the SD Ten an easy choice, and MGG quickly put it to work doing two gigs back-to-back at the Metro FM Awards and Discovery Leadership Awards.

Bent Iversen, key account manager for leading Scandinavian PA company, DPA Soundco (which, despite the similar name, is not affiliated with DPA Microphones), is the main sound technician for the press room.

"We installed 20 d:screet Podium Microphones, which were specified by broadcast rental company Best Broadcast Hire (BBH)," explains Iversen. "These are positioned on the press table where they are mounted on K&M table bases. Most of the people taking part in the press panels are musicians wh
In keeping with its reputation for offering high standards to visitors, the gallery recently took steps to install a new voice announcement and paging system to enable clear communications throughout the building. POLARaudio in conjunction with Saville AV supplied Biamp's Vocia System to meet the needs of this prestigious institution.
The client required a multi-zone system to span four floors, incorporating all the public areas of the gallery. This was to provide paging facilities, including message playback to give notice to visitors of the closure of the gallery at the end
Every year, they manage to blow past expectations, and delight the senses in new ways. The 2014 Unleash Tour is no exception, thanks in part to a visual hurricane force of a lightshow created by technical director Collyns Stenzel and Duncan MacKinnon from Audio East.

Glastonbury Festival founder Michael Eavis says, "[Metallica] wanted to play for a long, long time and they're one of the most amazing rock bands in the world, everywhere I go people say 'When are Metallica going to play?' I said, 'They will be here one day' and this is their time now...We've done it before (with Rage Against the Machine in 1994).

"Leo is already being requested by major tours," says Frank Grønbæk, project manager for Victory and head of the Copenhagen office. "Its power and long throw opens us to not only the largest stadium and festival shows in Denmark, but also to a wider market elsewhere in northern Europe. And Lyon's size and weight is ideally suited to most shows in the relatively small Danish market."
The pivotal point in Victory's purchase decision was a convincing Lyon demo in Amsterdam. "The coverage and power were very impressive," recalls Grønbæk. "I went
