070 VENUE
of AQ6 speakers in the secondary dining area, bar and lounge, reinforced with a recessed AQ212 (2 x 12) sub behind the DJ booth. These are powered by a combination of Martin Audio MA1.3S and MA 900 amps.
The long refectory table has steps at either side, enabling the cabaret artistes to walk up and perform, either on the table or the overhead trapeze. And when the operation shifts to live mode, artistes take advantage of the venue’s compact live PA setup comprising two Shure PG58 radio mic systems, which are mixed through a Yamaha 12-channel MG124CX console.
Knowing that Adam Davies wanted a highly theatrical environment, Sound Division specified DMX lines and additional power feeds to accommodate seven ETC Source 4 Junior profiles and four Martin smartMAC moving heads, projecting powerful gobos and graphics onto the pelmet under the glazed conservatory roof, and scattering beams off two rotating 16-inch mirror balls. Two powerful 400W UV cannons have been installed, one either side of the stage, with the purpose of illuminating the trapeze artists / performers. Within the lounge there is a second smaller stage podium with a dancing pole,and here performers are illuminated with PAR 16 Birdies and a Minuette Fresnel.
The second PC drives the Zero 88 24-channel Jester ML24 lighting controller, into which his cues are programmed, as well as the BSS
Soundweb London BLU-16 (4 in/8 out) digital processer, which pro- vides all zoning, EQ presets and system protection. A BLU-8 remote control panel has been installed to provide emergency backup should the main PC fail.
For projection, a Panasonic PT-FW300 3500 ANSI lumen WXGA “Allen & Heath have added
a lot of features to facilitate four deck mixing. It will
take any device with a line input capability and has a recording feature so you can record a set live.”
HDMI projector and Euroscreen 8ft widescreen electric drop-down projection screen have been installed to run early 20th century cir- cus-themed show reels and for corporate presentation purposes. Whilst the name obviously borrows from the venue’s Victorian days, it isn’t unreasonable to link in the entertainment philosophy that drives a project such as Circus. Clearly this playground is far more sophisti- cated than the traditional circus, but the all-encompassing, theatrical approach to entertainment is very similar. It has resulted in not only an edgy aesthetic, but a very interesting technology installation, with a ‘first’ - in the form of the Xone:DX with Serato ITCH - to boot.
