The Agora Stage, a large festival tent, is the exhibition's main performance space with live entertainment throughout the show. On Thursday evening, 22 March, Peavey and Martin will be holding a special Agora Stage event with entertainment including The Alex Skolnick Trio and the Peavey All Stars.
Peavey's commercial audio division will be supplying all the audio for the Agora Stage's setup, from the mixing desks to front-of-house PA and monitoring system. The gear that will be used includes the Peavey Versarray 212, which is powered by Crest Pro amplifiers and controlled using the companies Media Matrix technology.
"We're again looking forward to the opportunity to put so much of our gear through its paces in front of what is a very critical audience," said Clive Roberts, managing director of Peavey Europe. "It's great exposure for all the product lines, especially the Versarray system, which is a revolutionary product in its class."
The lighting setup will be dominated by Martin EC Series LED video screens in combination with a host of Martin MAC moving heads, including the award-winning MAC Aura. Lighting control will be handled from a Martin M1 console.
Peter Kroul, sales director for Martin EMEA North, commented, "This year we are proud to celebrate our 25th Anniversary and that is reason for us to announce a lot of special happenings at the exhibition starting with the product launch of a new generation of moving heads - the MAC Viper family - as well as new M-Series controllers and additions to our creative LED video panels.
