ABOUT THE INSTALL:
At the IICB Jadavpur-Kolkata venue, our installation team was tasked with meeting the demanding needs and high expectations of the clients. The primary objective was to deliver a seamless audio experience for their events and performances.
However, the installation presented some challenges due to the venue’s unique acoustics and diverse event requirements. The team needed to ensure crystal-clear sound projection, optimal coverage, and powerful bass response to cater to a wide range of events, from lectures to live performances.
To overcome these challenges, our team selected a carefully curated set of high-quality products. The Waves Emotion LV1 Live Mixer formed the backbone of the audio system, providing flexible control and pristine sound quality. For delivering outstanding sound reinforcement, the OHM Cronus 10 speakers with their 10″ woofer and 1″ compression driver, capable of 129 dB SPL, were deployed. The OHM BRS 15 reflex-tuned subwoofer ensured deep and punchy bass reproduction.
To maintain consistent audio coverage, the OHM BRT 6 and BRT 26 compact trapezoidal point-source cabinets were strategically positioned. Additionally, the OHM BRT-15 woofer and 1.5″ compression driver provided excellent midrange and high-frequency performance. The Oyster Digital Signal Processing offered precise signal control and optimization, enhancing the overall audio experience.
For vocal clarity, the OSL O5D high-performance Vocal Microphone with adapted sensitivity for deep vocals, along with the OS 18 adjustable 18″ Cardioid Gooseneck Microphone, were used. The installation was completed with the reliable OSL OS 42B Gooseneck Base with Switch and the OSL Q500.2R Dual channel true diversity receiver, paired with the Q500.92H true diversity handheld transmitter and Q500.91P true diversity bodypack for flawless wireless connectivity.
In conclusion, the installation at IICB Jadavpur-Kolkata successfully met the venue’s diverse audio needs and surpassed the client’s expectations. The strategic use of premium audio products ensured exceptional sound quality and coverage for a wide variety of events, making it a resounding success.
