096 VENUE
IP and seven Chauvet COLORado 3p IP wash lights. HMS speci- fied these fixtures for permanent, outdoor installation because they project a crisp, saturated wash and can withstand the humid, and sometimes harsh, weather conditions in Miami. An MA Lighting grandMA 2 light console beats at the heart of sys- tem, coordinating control of the entire lighting population, both inside and out. HMS utilised wireless DMX protocol when access was tricky or for spaces far away from the console. It consists of one transmit- ter connected to universe 6 of the grandMA 2 Light, which speaks to 10 receivers that are positioned throughout the venue. Traxon Technologies 1 PXL LED units illuminate each ‘Amnesia’ sign dotted around the club. The 20 sconce lights on the first floor are controlled by the grandMA 2 light and the 10 on the ground floor by Lightdrive Jog from e:cue.
HMS also provided eight Samsung LED screens that are installed in four of the bars and are controlled using ArKaos MediaMaster soft- ware. As well as that, the company networking for various services, including CCTV, IP phones, PBX and all telephones, cash registers and WiFi access.
Sound Investment worked to deliver an audio solution that matched the venue’s profile, as Todd Konecny from the integration company explained: “Amnesia, being an international venue and brand, brought very high expectations of the performance of the sound system. The

team was very specific in what they wanted from the system, but were terrific to work with. We were confident that the combination of Funktion One, the other products used, and our dedicated installation team would be able to meet and exceed their expectations.” Amnesia’s layout was a challenge. With the large open main room sharing the same space as the surrounding VIP mezzanine VIP level, the objective was to provide system that would cover all of the areas sufficiently, whilst respecting the owner’s budget. The focus of the room is the main stage and the FX Blaster video wall, so Sound Investment opted for a Funktion One Dance Stack configuration, to enhance the spectacle further.
Like all of the other visible speakers in Amnesia, the Dance Stacks have been given a custom white finish, which fits with the all-white décor. Both Dance Stacks are configured with a Funktion One DS210’s for mid-highs, two DS15’s that deliver upper-bass and two F221’s as low-end foundations.
Four Funktion One Resolution 3 enclosures have been strategically placed near the centre of the room, as Todd revealed: “The main space is fairly long and there are VIP sections towards the back of the room that required coverage. Two pairs of Funktion One Res 3 full range speakers were flown about half way back in the room and delayed to match the main system. This provides the illusion that the main Dance Stacks are filling the entire room from their location at the front of the room.”
A total of 18 Funktion One F101 speakers have been deployed throughout the venue. Further bass reinforcement comes from two F221 enclosures, two F118 MK2 enclosures, six Minibass 212’s and six Minibass 112’s. Monitoring is handled by a pair of Funktion One RM18 triple concentric stage monitors.
All low and sub frequency speakers are powered by MC² Audio E90 amplifiers, all mid / high speakers are powered by MC² Audio T2000 and T1500 amplifiers. The system processing is provided by the BSS London platform, whose network audio facilities are made use of by a remotely located amp rack for the speakers located greater than 100ft from the main rack. “Amnesia’s sound system is an achievement because it uses each speaker component to its maximum,” said Todd. “Extensive coverage pattern analysis was performed and treatment of much of the interior surfaces was provided by the client. The high output and well-defined coverage patterns of the Funktion One system are used to their
