"We've doubled the size of it subsequent to that first order, and what we have now is a rig that can handle George Benson at the Glasgow Jazz Festival, but can also be broken down into three decent conference systems. GEO is so small, so compact and bijou, and it does exactly what it says on the tin - immediately!"
The GEO S boxes have since notched up a variety of events from a touring theatre production, to a live BBC music programme, to a heavy metal festival in the Shetland Isles. "This is a box that will blend in anywhere, with any kind of programme material," says Gorman. "It's especially suitable for our market in Scotland, where there are a lot of venues which don't offer the capability to fly gear. We've bought the GEO ground-support system which is the perfect solution."
Sound Acoustics' inventory now runs to 32 boxes of GEO S830 and S805 Tangent Array modules, with 10 CD12 sub-bass units. The system was used in its entirety for George Benson at Glasgow's recent Jazz Festival, playing to a capacity crowd of 3,000.
