Star violinist Nigel Kennedy played an engaging concert as part of the Schleswig-Holstein Music Festival for around 3,500 spectators in the Holstenhalle 1 in Neumünster. He was accompanied by the Schleswig-Holstein Festival Orchestra. Alcons teamed up with Kennedy's sound engineer Andreas Adelhofer of Headroom Media Service GmbH for the sound experience. At the concert Adelhofer cooperated with Alcons for the first time. "I've been wanting to test an Alcons pro-ribbon system live for a long time and from time to time I'd been talking to Carsten Albrecht from Alcons Germany. With Nigel Kennedy, I was finally able to put this project into action", says the Tonmeister. The PA system consisting of 36x Alcons LR18 compact midsize line-array, with LR7 micro line-array as additional front-fills, RR12 point-source array as center cluster and side-fill and BF302 (2x 15 " bass) in cardioid arrangement and was sourced from the Alcons Audio rental network The Ribbon Network. The Alcons system has convinced him overall: "As I expected, the system has delivered excellent coherence. The acoustic image in the entire audience area was extremely homogeneous, especially in this acoustically very demanding environment of a transversely played hall with arched roof. If then also concertgoers pass the FoH during the break and praise the unobtrusive, defined and warm sound, I believe everything went excellent! Adelhofer is following a worldwide trend by definitely putting Alcons on top of his rider as “the preferred system." #alconsaudio #alcons #nigelkennedy #germany #livesound #pasystem #proaudio #soundsystem (bij Schleswig-Holstein, Germany) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1OX_jxI7pR/?igshid=1p82yfjx0fjk9

Since it was founded 21 years ago, Cellosound has grown to become the premier audio production company in Guangzhou, the city at the heart of the most-populous metropolitan area in mainland China. An Alcons LR28 system is the latest addition to its inventory, bringing HiFi-quality sound at concert SPLs to Cellosound’s biggest events. By late 2018, its customer base had grown to where a new high end solution for major events was needed, as the company’s Raymond Liu explains. “Our customers were requesting a system for touring and EDM events and we knew that, to continue our growth and development, we needed a complete, large format line array system with beautiful sound,” he says. The LR28 delivers exceptional sound quality with very high SPL capabilities and throw. Together with the BC543’s selectable cardioid low-frequency pattern control, excellent rear rejection and excursion capabilities, which extend the output by 3.5dB compared to traditional 18” designs, the systems can make the power and quality at the biggest events exceed all audience expectations. “We are really happy with the LR28, it is very good to work with and delivers great results. We will definitely be expanding it in the near future,” says Raymond, Cellosound #alcons #pa #livesound #linearray #china #paoftheday #soundengineer #proaudio (bij Guangzhou, China) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0n3e0SoKB9/?igshid=1vss0hll5sqe3

Buford Jones remarked, “It was a pleasure joining Robert Scovill at the Alcons Audio demo room this year at InfoComm19. I thank those who attended the demos. It was fun answering questions and exchanging our views on the ever-expanding immersive audio subject for the live sound industry. Robert and I share a passion for this type of distribution in live sound and it's exciting to see Alcons Audio and Astro Spatial Audio fully support these endeavours as well. I had a great time!” “It was great to spend some time with Buford, the Alcons folks and the attendees to our special immersive audio session,” Robert Scovill added. “It’s vitally important to demystify Immersive speaker deployment and object-based mixing for potential users. Immersive will impact every level of production design and operation, be it in installations or concert sound. I applaud everyone at Alcons Audio and Astro Spatial Audio for helping everyone get in front of this movement.” www.alconsaudio.com #alconsaudio, #alcons, #proribbon, #evolutionaryaudiosolutions, #audiosystem, #sounddesign, #soundsystem, #soundengineer, #ribbonsound, #ribbonspeakers, #proaudio, #audioengineer, #loudspeakers, #InfoComm2019, #linearray, #performingarts, #soundreinforcement, #livesound, #pasystem, #livesoundengineer, #avid, #astrospatialaudio, #InfoComm, #pasystem, #bufordjones, #robertscovill, #concertsound, #churchsound, #clubsound, #systemintegration https://www.instagram.com/p/BzNgfanIvEP/?igshid=qkembqdp3urj

With a spectacular outdoor live production and 6000m2 audience arena, the Mid-Autumn Festival Party of China Media Group is a difficult challenge for any sound reinforcementsystem. The festival featured a huge, 60m wide stage and large set, with an audience of 5000 seated in an arena 80m wide by 100m deep. However, thanks to an Alcons Audio pro-ribbon LR28 larger-format line array system, the audience at the latest event in Qufu enjoyed high quality sound throughout. “Thanks to the directivity, all-natural cylindrical wavefront and exceptional throw of Alcons Audio’s pro-ribbon technology, a strong breeze and high humidity did not affect the transmission of sound at all. The pro-ribbon drivers of the LR28 system really pushed the high frequencies, ensuring very low distortion and maintaining a very clear sound for the whole audience,” says chief sound engineer Mr Xu. The event’s audio director Liu Yibin adds: “The Alcons Audio system ensured that the sound was very clear and accurate for all of the 5000 people in the arena. The sound pressure level was maintained perfectly to the far back and sides of the audience, keeping a very even sound field throughout.” www.alconsaudio.com #alconsaudio, #alcons, #proribbon, #evolutionaryaudiosolutions, #audiosystem, #sounddesign, #soundsystem, #soundengineer, #ribbonsound, #ribbonspeakers, #proaudio, #audioengineer, #loudspeakers, #performingarts, #loudspeaker, #linearray, #soundreinforcement, #livesound, #pasystem, #amplifiers, #DSP, #paoftheday, #toursound, #theribbonnetwork https://www.instagram.com/p/BxuKEqnIbq2/?igshid=19am3zujiyynm

The Schauspiel Hannover offers theater, entertainment and music in five different venues. Recently, the sound systems have been brought to the latest standard; “The audio demands of the various productions in the house can be described as very 'mature'." says sound engineer Markus Folberth. The sound engineering department wanted a homogeneous coverage of the entire auditorium as well as good speech intelligibility. "In addition, a real extension of the expressive possibilities of the sound reinforcement was requested." says Lutz Findeisen, head of the sound / video department at Schauspiel Hannover. After comparing different line array systems, the Alcons LR14 pro-ribbon line-array systems were selected, supplemented by LR7 line-arrays; RR12 point-source arrays were selected for back-of-stage system, and VR12 and VR5 were chosen as mobile system. "We agreed that Alcons could cover the widest range of productions," explains Findeisen. "In addition, we noticed positively that the pro-ribbon drivers never sound harsh, even at high sound pressure levels. The Alcons systems have an unobtrusive directness - a natural resolution in speech and music. You literally hear every dB of change in the truest sense of the word!" www.alconsaudio.com #alconsaudio, #alcons, #proribbon, #evolutionaryaudiosolutions, #audiosystem, #sounddesign, #soundsystem, #soundengineer, #ribbonsound, #ribbonspeakers, #proaudio, #audioengineer, #loudspeakers, #linearray, #performingarts, #soundreinforcement, #livesound, #pasystem, #livesoundengineer, #broadway, #theatresound, #theatersound, #pasystem, #theatresounddesign, #hannoverschauspiel, #hannoverschauspielhaus, #schauspielhannover, #schauspielhaus https://www.instagram.com/p/BwmijJApbBq/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=11tkdm5yhhd9e

Since 2009, the city of Leipzig has been commemorating the miracle of the Peaceful Revolution every year on November 9, that started from the Saxon metropolis and made a significant contribution to the fall of the BerlinWall on November 9, 1989. As in previous years, again more than 15,000 people gathered on the Augustplatz in Leipzig Germany. After ils medientechnik had successfully implemented the large-format LR28 line array of the Dutch manufacturer Alcons Audio at a major event in the autumn, managing director Thomas Ils again opted for the "big silverware" at Lichtfest. A wide selection of pro-ribbon systems was deployed: 24x Alcons LR28 large-format pro-ribbon line array systems; 20x BC543 cardioid subwoofers; 12x VR8 monitors, 18x LR18 compact line-arrays with 4x QR24/110 line-sourcecolumns, a.o. "We had the LR28 now at two major events in use, which could not be more different," explains Thomas Ils. "While the first project was about rock / pop sound, we were now able to experience the system in a classical context. Both times, the LR28 has absolutely convinced us. The Alcons system astonishes us again and again with its detailed sound reproduction; The natural, almost 'analytic' sound, paired with high speech intelligibility, always delivers in any application.
