Just two years after installing the Euphonix
System 5 in the Opera Theatre, the Sydney Opera
House has announced the addition of two more consoles;
a second System 5 for the Concert Hall and a Max
Air for the Drama Theater.
David Claringbold, Technical Manager, Sound and
Audio Visual for the Sydney Opera House states,
“We have been fully justified in our initial choice
of System 5 for the Opera Theater. The console
has been solidly reliable in what is probably
the busiest theater venue in the world and its
capabilities have proven to be just as expansive
as we envisaged. "
He continued, "We are now addressing the
needs of the Drama Theater and our largest venue,
the Concert Hall. The Concert Hall presents incredibly
diverse performances, ranging from symphony concerts
to the biggest names in contemporary music. These
two new consoles will enable us to bring rapid
show turnaround, instant recall of settings, increased
ergonomic efficiency and superb sonic performance
to the Concert Hall and Drama Theater.”
In the Opera Theater 'Remote Mixing' has become
an irreplaceable part of the production process
and this will now be available with the new consoles.
Sections of the console control surface complete
with TFT screen, faders and assignable controls
can be carried anywhere in the venue enabling
an audio operator to sit in the stalls with a
show producer and his creative and technical staff
and make adjustments according to their comments
and instructions.
“To receive a repeat endorsement from a client as
prestigious as the Sydney Opera House is a tremendous
honor,” said Euphonix Vice President International
Sales, Russell Waite. "It confirms that our
technology is second to none when we are able to
satisfy the requirements of such demanding and unique
applications.”
Euphonix is distributed in Australia by:
Technical Audio Group
