The celebration centred along the Belgrade Waterfront
Serbia - With Belgrade’s 2022 New Year’s Eve celebration green lighted by city officials, Skymusic, one of the leading sound reinforcement rental companies in Europe, was given the task of providing an unforgettable experience for the crowd of revellers in attendance.
The celebration, which centred along the Belgrade Waterfront, a new complex of buildings including the 551ft-tall Kula Belgrade tower, required Skymusic Sound Engineer Vladimir Buric to cover a lot of ground. The multimedia spectacle featured a laser show, fireworks, videos and live performances by some of Serbia’s biggest stars including, Jelena Karleuša, Marija Šerifović and Sara Jovanović.
Outdoor winter events at night always present a set of challenges, which led Buric to the Anya three-way full-range ADAPTive array module from Eastern Acoustic Works (EAW).
“We needed to project sound over a half mile on the riverbank evenly and that was no easy task,” says Buric. “I have been using EAW since 2005 and knew that the Anya ADAPTive system would be a great and logical option since it can project even coverage across long distances while maintaining fantastic sound clarity.”
Buric and his team used a total of 32 Anya’s,16 on each side of the Kula tower, covering close to a quarter mile of ground in each direction. The system was hung at 55ft high on the tower and by utilising EAW’s Resolution 2 software, Buric was able to ensure maximum performance including even farther coverage on the upper mid frequencies.
“The Anya system delivers incredible intelligibility over great SPL, so it is basically loud and clear,” adds Buric. “I really like the Dante integration and the Anya’s audio quality is very much like hi-fi or studio speakers; very well balanced and offers different voicings as a quick solution to various program materials. It’s a great system that ensured the party on the plateau in front of the House of the National Assembly was a huge success.”
