CHINA: Located in Sichuang Province, China’s Mingshan Stadium has been installed with a ZED-436 mixer from Allen & Health. The 4,000 sq-m venue can accommodate up to 2,500 people and caters for sporting events as well as conferences and exhibitions. The installation was designed by EZPro and installed by Chengdu Eagle Huang Technology Co Ltd.
‘The ZED-436 is the perfect choice for this application because it provides enough input channels as well as professional-grade sound quality,’ stated Xuejun Lian, technical manager at EZPro. ‘The mixer features 32 mic or line inputs plus two dual stereo inputs, which means that it has two more stereo inputs than other mixers of the same range, thus having the capability to accept more audio sources. The ZED-436 also adopts DuoPre preamps enabling better control of signal level and unmatched sound quality.’
The A&H console sits at the heart of the Minghsan audio system, which also features seven clusters of Community loudspeakers to power sporting events and a separate PA system installed to handle performance-based events comprising Mackie HDA powered line array speakers and subwoofers. Symetrix SymNet Solus 8 DSPs provide signal processing and distribution.
Six month’s on from the stadium’s opening, the installed audio systems have reportedly met all of the original requirements. ‘The system delivers the required levels of SPL and speech clarity,’ observed a spokesperson for Chengdu Eagle Huang Technology. ‘Not only does it achieve even coverage of the audience areas, it also avoids detrimental sound reflections. The result is that we can achieve the perfect sound, no matter what type of event is taking place.’
