Reinforcing a "Joyful Noise"

Burien, WA—Triamp Group Productions of Kent, Washington, recently used Electro-Voice (EV) and Dynacord equipment for Paul Galvan’s “Make a Joyful Noise,” a benefit concert for the children and families of the Ronald McDonald House. The event took place at Highline Performing Arts Center in Burien, Wash., with a concert program featuring adult and children’s chorus performances, all backed by a 13-piece orchestra.

Triamp Group used their Dynacord Cobra-2 line array system for the main PA, powered by a prewired an preprogrammed drive rack featuring a Dynacord DSP 224 crossover with two Dynacord L2400 amplifiers. When asked about working with the Cobra Array, Front of House Engineer Scott Hurd said, “I really enjoyed how simply the speakers set up. Once we had the speakers in place I was amazed at how good they sounded with very little tweaking on the crossover or EQ—especially in the vocal range.”

Over in monitor world, EV Sx300 boxes were used as front and side fills. EV FM 1202 and FM12-2 monitors were used for the choir and orchestra. “Having the stage completely clear of monitors was important for the client,” commented Vince Agne, Monitor Engineer. “The Sx300 boxes are particularly effective as side fills and front fills, both sonically and visually -- they’re a nice clear-sounding box, and we were able to hide them easily to preserve sight lines.”
