This Month in Mix
TEC Award-winning FOH mixer David Morgan, whose credits include Steely Dan, Paul Simon and countless others, is currently completing a world tour with Boz Scaggs.
Some newer arenas seem to be very bright, with lots of reflective
surfaces, from skyboxes, etc. How should I deal with an overly live
venue?
Modern line array technology offers the best way to deal with highly
reflective, reverberant large spaces. Here, it's best to fly the array
as high as possible, aiming the majority of the cabinets downward to
minimize the “slapback” effect. It's also important that
each cabinet is vertically splayed. A flat array in the vertical plane
will send too much energy toward reflective areas such as skyboxes and
wall surfaces. If properly hung, the wide dispersion of acoustical
energy in the horizontal plane and tight pattern control in the
vertical plane will make for surprisingly good results in what have
traditionally been difficult venues.
