Over the years, ML Executives has supplied EAW systems for Iron Maiden, Kiss, Deep Purple and Bryan Ferry, among many others, and the upcoming 2009 touring schedule has necessitated some additional EAW inventory. "We have a busy summer of festival shows coming up that we're providing cabinets for, as well as ongoing Iron Maiden stadium and arena tours," noted Gary Marks, ML Executives managing director. "We wanted to add to our supply, so that we could take care of stadium tours around Europe without having to r
The P-1800 AR provides consistent 120-V output (±5 V) from input voltages ranging from 97 VAC to 137 VAC. Unlike commercial voltage regulators, the P-1800 AR's new True RMS voltage regulation technology, featuring an ultra-low-noise, microprocessor-controlled eight-tap toroidal autoformer, is engineered for use in any A/V environment.
The benefit of True RMS is the assurance of quiet operation for critical listening and recording applications, with minimal leakage of stray magnetic fields. Additionally, when the autoformer switches voltage taps at the zero cross points of both voltage and current, it doe

SSE Audio Group equipment sales specialist Alex Penn said: "With the recent introduction of the SB-168ES, it was a good time to talk about it and the M7CL. So we ran the days to help people to learn more about their capabilities, as well as letting people see for themselves the wide range of resources we have here at SSE."
A multi-track signal source was run into one SB168-ES which then fed the seven M7CLs used in the training session. This gave all attendees a chanc

"We've wanted to build out this space ever since we moved into our new headquarters five years ago," said LaMantia. "Following the completion of the Shure Technology Annex in 2004 and the Performance and Listening Center [PLC] in 2005, we were finally able to turn our attention to this project, which turned out even better than we imagined. It's a beautiful venue that will serve as a lasting tribute to our founder, S.N. Shure, for many years to come."

Lighting was overseen for both tours by Adlib's Tim Spilman, who also designed both rigs.
The Jimmy Carr set-up featured a down stage truss with eight Martin Professional MAC 250 wash lights. These gave great colour saturation on the whole down stage area allowing Spilman to highlight the relevant areas individually. There were three main performance positions - centre stage, sofa stage right and table stage left - each of which was lit with two profiles and two floor cans.
Three 19 degree ETC Source Four profiles on side booms were positioned each side of the thrust for downstage side illumination. There were six floorcans positioned across the front of the stage fitted with heavy frost filters to eliminate facial shad
"Having used the digital house desk on a production run prior to the official opening, I decided to bring in our iLive, which sonically outperforms it and is easier to use. iLive provided more power, greater flexibility, superior dynamics and EQ, and better effects, which meant I could leave my L960 reverb at the warehouse. It took six people to remove the house desk but only two to install iLive," reports Lydfiksern's MD, Thomas Mikarlsen.
Artists performing at the opening ceremony were all connected to the town of Hammerfest, and they included the national acts, Unit Five and Marte Heggelund, plus noted bass player, Knut Erik Sundquist.
"iLive seamlessly integrated with the house PA system and

"One of the main reasons for developing ILA v2 is to make true line array performance accessible in a far broader range of applications," QSC VP of marketing Gerry Tschetter says, explaining the underlying goal driving the product introduction. "Most line array systems today are manufactured for the touring sound market, which means that overall, system costs lie well beyond the means of many facilities that could gain direct benefits from the t
D.A.S. Audio distributor in Australia, Magma Systems & Engineering, offered their considerable experience in the installation of D.A.S. systems in religious centres. They recommended the use of the new Artec systems. Specifically, four white Artec 26 sound boxes were placed vertically in the altar area. These systems, ideal for near field applications, offer clean cut and sleek styling fit perfectly in any type of architectural space, says the company.
On either side of the hall, four white Factor 5 systems were used for paging and background music. These two-way propylene monitors offer precise directional sound symmetry. Pete Hotson of Magna System

In 2004, the theatre was forced to close and was on the verge of ceasing its activities, but the Focus Group took charge of bringing it back to life in order to prevent the loss of one of the most emblematic artistic and drama centres in the city.
The refurbishment work executed in the Goya Theatre, which will celebrate its 100th birthday in 2016, is based on building a new theatre within an existing frame.
