Audio

TW Audio and Powersoft; combined speaker system and power amplification have met the requirements achieving the best quality, crystal clear high SPL audio system surrounding the venue. The system was designed to deliver 125DB undistorted audio.

Lighting & Visual

Part of the inspiration was from a Pink Floyd concert. The arch and lighting effects from the inner of the stage aiming to change the standards of the DJ position creating an experience for the audience to be a part of the stage as performers and the DJ is the Music Conductor. Designing a kinetic system with over 150 lighting bars and motors, 180 moving head XS4 3 in 1 , 4 20 watt RGB lasers with special effects, from Vision Pro Lighting controlled by Chamsys MQ500 using Artnet protocol. Installed are more than 200 Square meters of 3.9 mm Led screen made by Vision Pro Lighting controlled

The special effects were supplied by Vision Pro Lighting, SFAT and DJ Power, every single used effect was a part of creating a special touch showing the beauty of the designed lighting delivering the right atmosphere and mood for the clubbers.

All screens and digital LED were controlled by Watchout server.

Challenges

The only challenge was in the lighting programming, we wanted to preprogram and keep the lighting desk ready with more than 150 different lighting programs for the operator to have different scenes and effects. We have more than 5 main elements and the coordination and the used timeline in between was so accurate other than the transition from element to another took a big challenge creating what the Club was designed for.

Final thoughts

The sound system was designed over DANTE protocol supported by Powersoft and the Lighting designed over ARTNET protocol controlled by Chamsys MQ500.
