Churches

HOUSES OF WORSHIP have MANY needs these days that simply
didn't exist before. The changing of technologies and much more importantly, the draw that Music Programs have seen on Attendance demand lots of new approaches. The 'typical' church is not typical at all any more! Now, with all the possible avenues for drawing more and more attendees into the churches, people expect more from the Sound Systems, Lighting Systems, and Video. To this end, systems for controlling these aspects, Training the Operators, and Maintaining them have to be in the plans for any future construction or remodel.

CONCEALING these systems is always a problem, but, like the Speaker System in the Ceiling at Beautiful Savior Lutheran Church, it CAN be DONE! Careful consideration had to be paid to compromise as little of the Performance Aspects of the system as is possible, while meeting the needs of the Architect and Design Committee guidelines. This was aided in using components from Multiple Manufacturers who had the BEST for the needs, not just what was available from one.

Traditional Means can fail when facing the kinds of
challenges presented by ROTATING STAGE THRUSTS
and 180 DEGREE COVERAGE NEEDS. This sytem required us to SPREAD the CLUSTER out to cover the Near Field seating, as well as the Far Field, without complicating the Gain Before Feedback needed for performance. In addition a high concentration of Microphone Inputs totaled 92 CHANNELS with the Thrust Stage Used. Unique Cable Management and Floor Pocket Assemblies were used to handle the job.
