The result of a positive two-year cooperation between Outline and some of the world's best-known rental companies, the first GTO - Grand Touring systems featured on high-profile concerts and tours, initially in the USA and then Europe. Those systems were not prototypes, but already standard production models, the same as those officially presented in Frankfurt just four months ago.
At PLASA 2011 the Italian company is unveiling its GTO-DF (down-fill). This is an element that is mechanically compatible with GTO and conceived and designed with a sole aim: providing audio coverage for the first rows of the audience in every type of event at which GTO systems are used. The GTO-DF uses six: four 8-inch mid-woofers and two 3-inch compression drivers.
Outline will also present an APP for Apple iPads - written entirely in its in-house labs - with which it is possible to control the self-powered loudspeaker enclosures manufactured by the company .
This APP is not intended to be a "marketing accessory", but an enjoyable, efficient and precise tool for the rapid easy control of Outline's self-powered systems. In short, the systems' all-round remote controller, says the company.
