CLIENT BRIDPORT LEISURE CENTRE SUPPLIER FUTURE MEDIA SYSTEMS DATE OF INSTALLATION JULY 2009–APRIL 2011


F


uture Media Systems was briefed to provide music, video and voice paging throughout Bridport


Leisure Centre. A background music system was combined with a paging system for music and announcements throughout the leisure centre. In the gym, video screens and


clusters of loudspeakers were installed – all supplied in a customised paint fi nish which matched the décor of the room, colour co-ordinated with the fi tness equipment. For the health and wellbeing studio,


discreet speakers were used, along with a compact wall-mounted rack. This system features Samson Airline 77


radio microphone headsets with transmitters built into the headgear, avoiding the need for belt packs. In the group cycling


studio, the lead instructor


wanted simple and instant control of some special effect lighting while leading the class from his bike. A powerful sound system complete with sub-woofer, controlled via a portable trolley, was therefore installed – again using Samson Airline 77 headset radio microphones. Located immediately adjacent to the instructor, this trolley also features lighting controls for two independent moving mirror lights with effects. The loudspeakers are also recessed into the walls, with wood surrounds, to match the décor and avoid the need for more conventional brackets protruding from the walls. Julian Dean, facilities manager at


Bridport Leisure Centre, is delighted with the results: “From the outset, we had a very clear vision of what we wanted to achieve with our capital development programme. Music, video and media played a large part in this vision. Future Media has helped us to achieve our aims. “It’s diffi cult to say whether the

audiovisual element alone has impacted retention. However, the fi tness suite development as a whole has most defi nitely improved our retention and attracted a new wave of members.”

The indoor hydro spa pool was fi tted


with underwater speakers, so people relaxing in the therapy pool, with their ears at water level, could hear relaxing music, as opposed to the background noise of the bubbling pool. Visual systems were designed to be


high quality but unimposing, blending into the fabric of the architectural features but still delivering the latest technology, including the HD 3D and SKY Sports package. The health and fi tness suite has large screen coverage in the free weights area and a bank of large viewing screens in the CV area, in addition to the Life Fitness integrated viewing screens. DLL believes the result matches the


high quality of the rest of the club. John Mullen, DLL’s director of construction, says: “Hutchison Technologies’
