VENUE 065
positioned on either side of the stage, while four Outline Mantas loudspeakers have been installed as front fi lls. The Mantas cabinets offer an 120° horizontal coverage pattern - in comparison to the Butterfl y enclosures which offer 90° horizontal dispersion - meaning the Mantas loudspeakers avoid any unwanted refl ections from the walls. Stage monitoring is provided by four Outline iSM115 powered monitors and six Outline iSM212 wedge monitors. Pawel continued: “This confi guration works well for the venue be- cause it’s designed to be very fl exible. For events, operas or classical concerts when there is no need for high level subwoofer content, the in-house sound team can disconnect the Outline DBS 18-2 sub- woofers and simply remove them from the system. The main hangs are capable of reproducing high quality sound down to 40Hz while providing very discreet look.” The Outline Butterfl y C.D.L. 1815 loudspeakers in the fl own arrays and the front fi lls are powered via four Outline T-Five amplifi ers, while eight Outline T-Seven amplifi ers provide ample support for the Outline Butterfl y C.D.H. 483 cabinets and the subwoofers. Both sets of amplifi ers - which are an OEM product, manufactured by Powersoft - are fi tted with DSP and Ethernet KAESOP cards for loudspeaker management. In-house or touring sound engineers are able to control
the entire sound system using Powersoft’s Armonia Pro Audio Suite software to access speaker presets, EQ fi lters and delay features. While additional control for the stage monitors - which are equipped with a built-in iMode DSP platform - is achievable over WiFi through the use of a dedicated Outline app.
“The main advantage of using one manufacturer is the compati- bility between presets and limiters, as well as achieving maximum effi ciency and sound quality from the amplifi ers and the loudspeak- ers,” explained Pawel. “All products have been carefully selected and tested by Outline and we can always count on great support from Outline engineers if we need it too. We chose Outline for this installation because its products are extremely fl exible and based on our previous experience we were convinced that the Butterfl y system would provide a very natural, transparent sound for all different types of music.”
The mixing console at Kashubian Philharmonic Hall had to be compatible with the studio - located on the upper fl oor of the building - and needed to feature digital audio networking with bi-directional transmission capabilities. The solution was the Avid Venue Profi le console, which feeds the PA with AES signals; these are then distrib- uted to the amplifi ers through Cat5 cables linked to the KAESOP
