The main room, a hard house haven, features seven GLP Ypoc 250 Spot moving lights and two Coef DVP 250 scanners, complete with custom Club Supreme gobos. There's also a Griven UV cannon, two mirror balls, an Antari S-100II snow machine, 6 i-Vision Lumos LED strips, a Gem ZR33 smoke machine, a Gem 24/7 hazer and an Antari B-200 bubble machine. Main room lighting is driven by an SGM Pilot 2000 desk. i-Vision has also supplied a BenQ 2,500 Lumen XGA video projector.
"The idea was to have a huge variety of effects available" explains i-Vision's project manager, Luke Dodd, "So the environment can change spatial dimensions - becoming anything from smoky, moody and intimate one minute, to large, colourful and airy space with light beams abounding the next. We were very happy with the way the installation came together given the short timescale. A lot of effort went into procuring the highest spec kit available, and we're confident the combination will be outstanding to all those who work, play and perform at Club Supreme."
The Laser is a top-of-the-range i-Vision Performer 4000 MC (multi-coloured) system, complete with Pangolin PC control. Four bespoke 3 x 3 metre motorized screens are strategically placed around the room for lasers and projections. Funky/US house Room 2 features 12 i-Vision Lumos 400 LED strips into the scheme. These are utilized for subtle or rapid changing of the environment's ambience through washing the arched ceilings and walls. There's also three GLP Junior Scan 2s, a Martin Atomic 3000 strobe, a Martin Magnum hazer and a Sunlight PC-based DMX controller.
Chill out arches are lit with 22 Lumos 3 LED 'Birdie' fixtures featuring the new i-Vision LumosDrive 36 LED driver. The main entrance corridor also features Lumos RGB down-lighters, used to ramp up the atmosphere and excitement for those entering the space. These and the chill out arch fixtures are also controlled by the Sunlight PC in Room 2. Outside, a Griven Gobo Clip beams 'Club Supreme' onto the entrance, and a full architectural exterior lighting scheme will be completed shortly.
i-Vision also set up and co-ordinated the sound installation, which was designed by EAW Europe, and installed by a team from Dublin-based AVL led by Mark Fay. It's the first London club installation of EAW's new Avalon system - high performance groove-tastic speakers, specifically developed and optimized for nightclub installations and dance music.
The main room features two EAW DC2 Avalon speakers on the main dancefloor, complete with chrome grills and three EAW DCS2 Avalon bass speakers also with chrome grills. The DJ Box features two EAW FR129 monitors, the processing is XTA and the amplification is Crest. The result is an extremely loud, smooth, bassy sound. Room 2 dancefloor features an EAW FR system - two FR159 enclosures and two FR250 bass units, and an FR129 DJ monitor. Processing is again XTA, with Crest amps.
