Work Pro offers sound quality and intelligibility to the SMY Costa del Sol hotel

Located on the Andalusian coast of Torremolinos, This hotel has a professional audio system so that its guests can enjoy quality sound in all areas.

Tourists staying in the SMY Costa del Sol, on Los Álamos beach at this hotel enjoy high-quality sound and lighting systems thanks to the installation of a new audio system, composed of products from Work Pro, with which they wanted to reflect the quality philosophy of this facility, both in the rooms and bathrooms and in the common areas, lobby, restaurant and terrace.

The project has been the responsibility of the audiovisual installer M3 Comprehensive Services, which specified a large selection of speakers, amplifiers, control units and multiplayers de Work Pro, brand that distributes in the Spanish market Equipson, with which he had already worked for the quality and performance of its products.

This is how José María Montero explains it, general director of M3 Integral Services: “It was a great installation with Work Pro systems that involved ninety IC ceiling speakers 6 Pro, installed in all common areas. On the terrace we opted for an SL 210 line array system with an SL subwoofer 218 on,that offers the power and intelligibility that the hotel wanted”.

The objective of this selection “was to guarantee excellent sound quality and aesthetics by installing well-designed speakers that were in line with the hotel's decoration”, underlines this responsible.

Servicios Integrales M3 also installed a Mark Mix U24 digital mixer and a transmission system made up of products from Equipson's BlueLine Digital series., including BLS2 SD MKII stereo AoIP transmitters and BLR stereo AoIP receivers 2 Lite MKII.

Montero points out that for the success of this project they had to solve some challenges: “along with the lack of quality and poor intelligibility, The other key problem we had to solve was poor control. Equipson's BlueLine products were the perfect solution, since they are easy to install. Besides, how they are based on transmission using Ethernet, “They make it much easier to control the output and volume of each speaker to play different audio sources in different areas.”.

Another requirement asked of Servicios Integrales M3 is to specify a system that would allow the hotel to control the lighting of its live shows and events on the terrace.. “This had to work remotely and also have a timer for general architectural lighting”, Montero clarifies.

The solution chosen to achieve this was also from Work Pro, with LightShark LS-Core lighting console, DMX based, featuring custom scene buttons that can be activated from any smart device via a web browser.

The system also incorporates an internal scheduler so that thousands of scenes can be activated automatically at the time, date, etc. desired. Capable of controlling up to eight DMX universes, LS-Cores is an ideal solution for AV system installers and integrators because it is plug and play, very easy to use and does not require special software (just a web browser allows complete control of the console).
