Adamson schedules training at NAMM 2018
- Details
Jeremiah Karni, head of education at Adamson, will lead the session alongside senior applications engineer Brian Fraser.
Karni says: “As part of our commitment to on-going education for our users, we’re excited to support the AES@NAMM Line Array Loudspeaker System Academy. During the half-day courses comprised of software and practical hands-on sessions, we will give a comprehensive taste of our two-day Adamson Applied Certification training and share our many years of experience in the application of line arrays and the theoretical principles behind line array technology. This is a great opportunity to bolster people’s knowledge and skill sets and forge new professional connections.”
The training will comprise two 90-minute sessions. The first will cover venue measurement and system design with the supporting software component, Blueprint AV. The second will be a practical session on the deployment of an S-Series array, touching on everything from “shooting the room” to rigging and wiring configurations using a flown array and culminating in a short listening session.
In addition to the training session, Adamson will exhibit on The NAMM Show floor in the newly expanded north wing of the Anaheim Convention Centre. Marc Bertrand, freshly appointed as managing director of Adamson Americas, will be on site together with the rest of his team and key staff from the company’s Canadian HQ.
On display will be Adamson’s S-Series of compact tour-grade loudspeakers, including the S10 two-way, full-range line array cabinet and complementary S119 subwoofer. S-Series products have been deployed on recent tours by top international artists including Sia, Imagine Dragons, Shawn Mendes, and many others. Also on display will be the new install-focused IS-Series, which packs Adamson’s tour-grade technology into sleek, architecturally friendly boxes with rugged and unobtrusive rigging solutions for integrators.
“NAMM's target to boost the live-performance audio presence beginning with this year's show and its educational partnership with the Audio Engineering Society (AES) is very encouraging,” says Marc Weber, director of product and brand management at Adamson. “Our participation in the AES@NAMM Symposium complements our dedicated focus on training and education and we are very much looking forward to connecting with the NAMM attendees on the show floor."
