CGA installed new sound systems throughout the existing club, and added 10 28" video screens and a cardio-vascular headphone system for the 40 main machines around the video screens. The existing dance studio has been upgraded with new amplification and control equipment, including a Denon combination CD/tape deck, a Trantec radio mic and a Cloud Electronics zoner. Three of Rolec’s hard-disk music systems provide a range of music throughout the complex.
In the new sports hall, swimming pool and dance studio, CGA have fitted JBL Contractor series loudspeakers, finished in white, to carry paging announcements, background music and visiting sources through the local connection plate. Throughout the changing areas, corridors, offices and health and beauty areas, ceiling speakers are fitted to relay all music sources. The main sound distribution system is run via a Peavey Media Matrix system which, using Cobranet, has enabled CGA to route all the sound sources to all areas in any combination. Most of the rooms in the club feature a local control panel, which provides access to continuous music, providing a choice of either slow, medium or fast tempos, sourced from the Rolec hard-disk systems, plus volume control. All other areas are controlled from the front reception desk, where control is via a 10.5" TFT screen showing the status of all rooms and overall system control and paging.
