Liberty Acoustics was entrusted with the task of performing the installation. Supported by Dynacord's's partners in the region, AVL, the team from Liberty Acoustics installed, for the first time in any Dubai club, a fully digital control platform. Its nerve centre is a P 64 Digital Audio Matrix Manager.
This network-capable and freely configurable audio system controller offers not only the live bands but also the DJs making guest appearances in the club a wide range of possibilities: the entire audio system is configurable, remote controlled and also supervised remotely by means of the IRIS-Net software. "It's the P 64 and IRIS-Net that does all the work in the club," says Liberty Acoustics MD Mark Legaspi. "The DSP system spares those responsible a great deal of time and also worry, as it allows them to define access rights. The pop-up menus and indeed the entire user interface are a joy to work with."
The Mood is another club lodged in the Excelsior Creek Hotel and, like the Ratsky boasts a new Dynacord system. There, in two VL 212s, four VL 262s and three Sub18, cabinets, Liberty Acoustics found a formula attuned to the acoustics and musical demands of the club. "The Sub 18 provides more pressure in the bass region than any other single 18-inch," says Mark Legaspi. "Twinned with the VariLine tops, it represents without question the optimum solution for the Mood."
