Owner - Olympia, WA
- The design goal for this parish was to increase overall intelligibility, accommodate the new program preserve the architecture of the room.
- A line array was selected because it was both visually unobtrusive and the coverage pattern of the speaker is electronically steerable.
- A dedicated digital network was installed to connect the various parts of the sound system.
- This "virtual snake" allowed much more flexibility in the placement of connection points for these portable carts.
St Paul's Catholic Church
Jensen Yorba Lott - Juneau, AK
- This new 250 seat sanctuary also serves as a multi-purpose space for a variety of functions from speech to a variety of amplified and unamplified performances music.
- The seating-plan was designed "in the round", so typical approaches to church sound system design would be unsuitable.
- It was decided to design four separate loudspeaker clusters, each directly over the four source locations of pulpit, altar, and choir areas.
- For the priest and other non-technical users, fully automatic operation is "plug and play" by simply turning the system on.
