Swingers Las Vegas bets on the sound of Martin Audio

Middlesex Sound & Light (MSL) designed and installed the sound system, composed of 170 speakers and subwoofers Martin Audio, offering uniform coverage at this new mini golf and events club.

Located on a huge plot of land 3.700 m² within the Mandalay Bay Resort, the mini golf club Swingers Las Vegas It has a new sound system, composed of 170 Martin Audio speakers, including 122 of the CDD6 model, that you have installed Middlesex Sound & Light (MSL).

As Swingers' innovative entertainment concept evolves, Martin Audio technology is present in all its spaces. The new Las Vegas space not only offers its visitors four nine-hole minigolf courses, but a new concept of carnival themed game room.

The core of Swingers Las Vegas' main space is a long English country house, twenties style, whose façade comes to life thanks to a constant stream of projected images. Three Martin Audio arrays Torus T1230 constant curvature, suspended discreetly on each side with a pair of cardioid subwoofers SXCF118, they create a system PA-sstate.

Four powerful CDD10s are located in the sunken garden of the country house, where the wide balcony also works as a stage, offering a space for corporate presentations and small group events.

To this, more models of this speaker are added to offer the artist reference sound, while at the bottom of the house there is a dj station, which becomes especially important late in the day and requires additional volume. Besides, They are distributed throughout the premises no less than 122 CDD6 boxes.

As the MSL systems designer clarifies, Steve Billington, Swingers Las Vegas represents a conversion of former nightclub Light. Their first study was to determine if any of the existing sound equipment was recoverable., "But it was clear that nothing could be reused, and Martin Audio was always going to be the obvious choice. The question was how we could adapt it to a space as large as the current one”.

With a public in constant movement, Billington explains that he chose the CDD6 model “because its wide dispersion offers a even coverage compared to a traditional speaker. This is because it achieves a rectangular and extensible coverage pattern near the speaker..

The MSL approach is, in general, in assign a ratio of three SX subwoofers to twelve CDD6. In this application, They have also been careful to place a SXC115 (cardioide) in the DJ booth, as there is an exclusive space for private rental right behind the cabin. “This maintains the impact on the dance floor without affecting the VIP space”, aclara Billington.

Besides, low frequency extension (LF) if it provides, when necessary, using a combination of thirty subwoofers SX110 y SX210 by Martin Audio. The entire system has been designed before installation with the Display3 visualization software from the manufacturer, importing the Revit and SketchUp models provided by architect.

As Billington points out, “SketchUp is a very powerful tool that allows us to simulate everything. Although we feel very comfortable with CDD, which is a proven effective formula, With Torus it was useful to be able to measure coverage patterns”.

The signal distribution is carried out through a red of 10 GB, with a fully redundant fiber trunk that Dante carries from the Soundweb London system of BSS Audio to process controlled amplifiers.
