NEXO and STM
Series modular line arrays made a splash in Quito. The
occasion was the Expo Musica Ecuador, the second time for the event and it was
a resounding success, thanks to the hard work of NEXO’s distributor Mejor
Sonido.
The Quito event is lucky to have a great venue – the
demo area is set up at an old airport, so there were no noise restrictions and
plenty of space to test system throw over long distances. Everyone took great care not to upset the
active Cotopaxi volcano behind the demo area!
For the STM demonstration, the Mejor Sonido team flew
12x M28 per side, with 6x B112 arrayed behind each main line, and 26x subs
groundstacked below. CD18 subs were used
to cover the outside areas, with no delay applied.
“Everyone attending the demo was greatly surprised by
the high SPL and the punch of the system,” explains Roberto Tschopp from NEXO
LatAm.
“With the luxury of space, we
could appreciate the total spectrum at any arrival distance, and assess the
quality of the system’s coverage of the audience area.”
NEXO’s presentation continued indoors, where so many
questions were asked about the successful result of the simple sub set-up, that
he changed the subject of his seminar – giving a ‘Sub-Array masterclass’, to
cover the technical aspects of omni and cardioid operational modes, end fire
versus NEXO cardioid, and other hot topics.
Thanks to Mejor Sonido for staging a great demo, and also for showing
great creativity and enterprise with a whole new selection of NEXO swag!
