Clair Brothers rocks Djakarta Warehouse Project
- Details
It was the move to the JIExpo outdoor stage area that i made clear the need for a sound system that could handle such a large space. Clair Brothers was the first choice of the production company - Live Production Indonesia, based on its partnership since 2012 with Clair Brothers’ rental partner Total Audio.
Says Houwdy Boenadi, managing partner of Live Production Indonesia, says: “I first experienced Clair Brothers speakers in 2012 and was immediately impressed. Since then I’ve come to the conclusion that there is no match for Clair Brothers signature sound, especially in a space this big. The audience area alone is 390 meters long by 100 meters wide. It’s a lot of space to cover.”
The resulting sound system consists of Clair Brothers 78x i218-LT/i218-M, 68x iS218-M, 12x i212-M, 16x CS218-M, 4x R2D-M and 8x 12AM speakers. The FOH consoles employed for the festival were the Midas Pro6 and the Avid Profile; with the monitor console an Avid Profile.
“Because this is our fourth year working this festival,” continues Boenadi, “many of the early challenges have been worked out. Clair Brothers speakers require very little tuning and tweaking to result in a sound experience that’s perfect for everyone, including the acts up on stage. With the support of Total Audio and Wayne Grosser from Clair Brothers Australia, this year’s show was satisfying on every level.”
