L-ISA enhances Ennio Morricone tribute
- Details
LITT event-technik GmbH was responsible for the implementation of the L-ISA Immersive Hyperreal Sound-System, with Ulf Oeckel as system engineer and Holger Schwark manning FOH, both of whom are experienced L-ISA users and familiar with operating the system on live tours.
“I was honoured to plan one of the first L-ISA world tours with Mark Knopfler and bring it to the streets. In addition, I am a qualified L-ISA trainer," explains Oeckel, who describes the advantages of spatial audio technology for orchestral productions as follows: "The clarity and transparency are much greater than can be achieved with a conventional stereo system. With every L-ISA production I notice that the audience unconsciously feels more comfortable and connects with the music in a natural way."
In Berlin's Wuhlheide, an L-ISA Wide scene design made up of seven identical hangs, each with nine Kara cabinets, provided this audiovisual coupling effect. For structural reasons and for reasons of audience occupancy - two thirds of the open-air stage was occupied - a lateral extension system was not required, with the sale of seats based on the L-ISA zone, so that the same high-quality audio was delivered to every listener in the covered area and its first tier.
"The concert in Wuhlheide was the first time our L-Acoustics portfolio was used for an L-ISA show," Rolf Henning, managing director of LITT, says. “The sound effect is incredible. In 2022, we will go on a big farewell tour with German rock band City. L-ISA is already firmly planned."
