LIVE EVENT TIPS
 TIP:  Live sound is quite often underestimated, especially for smaller conference room events.  If the speaker's audio is too thin or too weak, listeners become distracted and disengaged.  The house system, especially in some hotels, is not always going to do the job.  Go the extra mile to ensure that the 'sound' of your event fills the room properly.  Call AXE Productions.

Array

Canadian-based A/V service provider Axe Productions recently deployed a complete JBL VERTEC® line array system in the Edmonton, Canada Shaw Conference Center to support the 2nd Annual K-97 Classic Rock Riot.  The production, which featured a performance by former Bad Company front man Paul Rodgers, marked the first implementation of the company's new VERTEC system.

 

Axe Owner, Jon Beckett, supplied 16 VERTEC VT4889 full-size line array loudspeakers (eight per side) powered by 16 Crown I-Tech 8000 amplifiers, which were controlled and configured via Harman's HiQnet™ System Architect™ software.  "We're rider-driven, so adding VERTEC to our inventory was an easy choice," stated Beckett.  "These are the first large-format line array loudspeakers we have purchased and the quality is outstanding."
