To achieve good sound quality, we used, even in the delays, a V system and ArrayProcessing to obtain a uniform tone and pressure level for the entire audience. And to get the feeling of power, The V and J-Infra subwoofers were used. The installation was completed with D80 amplifiers.

Atlanta's Lenox Square (Georgia United States) It is the oldest and most prestigious shopping center in the city. Faithful to traditions, Every year it celebrates the Independence Day celebrations with a wide variety of musical performances that culminate in a spectacular event of ten thousand fireworks..

Admission is free and this year they have been in charge of playing the music Sons of Sailors, the best known Jimmy Buffet tribute band in the area, y Party on the Moon. Atlanta-based In Concert Productions (and known locally as In Concert), took care of the audio and opted for a Series V system from d&b Audiotechnik to serve the more than 50.000 people gathering at the party.

“We had 50% from the audience directly in front of the stage and other 25.000 people on the side streets, that is to say, many people to whom we had to offer coverage in very different listening locations compared to the stage of the performance. Everywhere we use a V system, even for delays. We didn't have that big of a system and used ArrayProcessing to get a consistent tone and pressure level for the entire audience. We had so much dynamic range in the system and such good quality sound, that could be seen in the public reaction”, explica Jay Rabbit, president of In Concert.

Sound engineer Garry Sharp has mixed at celebrations of the 4 July at Lenox Square for many years and knew they were offering something new this year. “The sound clarity of the V Series speaker system is amazing. Together with the V and J-INFRA subwoofers, The entire facility gave off a feeling of power that I had never heard before.. I had almost no overall EQ adjustments to make and the tonal balance never changed regardless of the level of pressure I applied.”.

One of the conditions Sharp had to deal with was the weather. “The show was held with a temperature of almost 38º C and the typical humidity of the 60-70% Midsummer in Georgia. The D80 amps handled the heat well, and the temperature and humidity settings available in the ArrayProcessing tool kept the sound going.”, explica Rabbit,
