The interior of the new Spinazzè store, in Noventa di Piave, Italy.
Italy - Allen & Heath's iDR DSP system has been installed in a new top fashion retail outlet opened by Spinazzè, in Noventa di Piave in the north-east of Italy. The owners requested a modern, cutting-edge system that would also be easy to manage by store staff. Salgareda-based Elettrostudio, was entrusted with the management of the audio installation, selecting Allen & Heath's iDR system and accompanying PL Series of remote controllers through the manufacturer's Italian distributor, Grisby Music srl.

There are six zones in the venue where the audio must be distributed - men's, women's, and children's departments, the admin offices, the dressing rooms, and the concourse outside the shop. Elettrostudio programmed the iDR system using the iDR System Manager and PL Designer software.

During opening hours, a music source is selected from CD, radio, or MP3 (via a PC). The iDR is programmed so that, at predetermined times, messages such as the opening and closing of the store, or sales promotions, are broadcast.

System parameters in individual areas, such as volume and source selection, can be controlled by staff using the PL-6 fader panel and PL-4 wall plate, as well as via PC, using the PL Client software. 'Live' announcements can also be made by staff through a paging system, which can be accessed via the PL remote control. During these announcements, the iDR is programmed to duck the music source automatically. "The owners are highly satisfied with the ease of use, the quality and the reliability of the whole installation," said Grisby's MD, Lorenzo Benigna.
