Sound Engineers Svante Axbanke, Jonas Johansson and Head of Sound, Bengt Frienholt


Plans are already in place to install another two clusters to fi ll in the gaps and make the tracking system more even later this year. Svante explained why they chose TTA’s Stagetracker FX over its competitors: “We had a demo from TTA, and years ago we checked the Timax system. During the most recent demo by TTA we could see a lot of improvements and things seemed much easier. “Then we started to plan for Les Miserable and the sound designer from Stockholm wanted some kind of tracking system. He’d used the Timax system before so he wanted that but we told him we’d just seen the Stagetracker system and he should look at it. He was really happy so we decided to get it.” Amplifi cation for the sound system is taken care of by a combination of d&b audiotechnik and Lab.gruppen amplifi ers. While networking capabilities are provided by Optocore. The microphone portfolio includes DPA, AKG, Sennheiser, Shure, Neumann, Crown, and Audix. Although the lighting system has not been upgraded alongside the new digital technology, it still boasts an impressive line up. The moving head collection includes four Martin Professional MAC 2000 Performances, 15 Martin Professional MAC 600’s, 10 Martin Professional PAL 1200 framing spots, nine Philips Vari-Lite 3500Q Spots and 11 ETC Source Four Revolutions. More than 200 traditional theatrical profi les and followspots from ETC, Niethammer, Beach Optique, Strand provide a large portion of the lighting stock, and many of these are installed on the lighting bridge that is fl own above the audience. Control for the lighting fi xtures is courtesy of an EGO Controls EGO lighting desk. Dimming at the Opera House is provided by 34 ETC Sine Wave Power Module, which are installed on the lighting bridge and below the stage pivot. A total of 16 ETC Matrix MkII dimming system racks


can be found on the balconies and in the basement and 26 ETC IES iNodes complete the dimming units. Malmö Opera is equipped with three Sanyo projectors, two PLC- XF47’s for front projection, and a PLC-XF46 for rear projection. The content for the projectors is provided by a Dataton WATCHOUT multi display system, software that allows users to produce both still and moving animations. Three Bright Sign HD410 units control the Sanyo projectors. Modernising existing entertainment venues gives them a new lease of life, and this is certainly the case for Malmö Opera House. It combines the buildings’ natural charm and historic beauty with advancements that are benefi cial now and in the future.
