The Hyogo's Grand Hall.
Japan - The recently opened Hyogo Performing Arts Centre features a 2,000 seat Grand Hall for classical, opera and ballet; a Theatre that accommodates 800, a small chamber style Recital Hall seating 400, as well as rehearsal facilities. Motoo Komada of Nagata Acoustics was commissioned to provide the acoustic design and consultation services. The Grand Hall is installed with a d&b audiotechnik C4 system, the Theatre Hall with L'Acoustics, and the Recital Hall again with d&b as a mobile system.

The permanent installed system is powered by ninety-three E-PAC amplifiers, which are all remotely controlled by the d&b Remote network using ROPE C. For special requirements there is also a mobile Q-Series system available to meet the specific requirements of various stage performances that can be used in either a stacked or flown arrangement.

Boris Rehders from d&b's central application support in Germany produced the detailed original EASE model from the architectural plans. He and Ralf Zuleeg optimized the positions and configuration of the loudspeaker systems in the model prior to their installation. "The main auditorium is a beautiful room with a marvellous acoustic for orchestral music, tuning the PA proved relatively easy once the loudspeakers were correctly positioned," says Zuleeg."
