SOUND
SYSTEM
The Vernon & District Multiplex Facility
features a state of the art sound system designed and installed by PJS
Systems Inc. No facility of comparable size in the Pacific Northwest
has the audio quality and performance the Vernon Multiplex can offer.
The heart of the sound is found in the audio closet
located in the Media Booth. Powered by a rack of ten Crest Power Amplifiers,
users can be assured that they will have the flexibility to ensure their
needs are met. The amplifiers drive eleven Community R2 Loudspeakers
covering the seating area, two Community R1 Loudspeakers and Community
R2 Loudspeakers covering the ice/floor surface, and the entrance/foyer
speakers encircling the rink. The R2 speakers provide unparalleled vocal
and music clarity. As a consequence of the delay sequencing and system
control, audio coverage is even, clear and undistorted to levels in
excess of 100db, with minimal overlap and echoing. Regardless of the
users needs for in house sound, they can be assured it will be one less
thing to worry about.
A Peavey X-Frame, the systems digital processor,
one function of which provides the delay sequencing allowing the maximization
of the system, controls the sound system. The user can input cassette
or compact disc through existing Denon cassette and compact disc players
or bring their own sources which can be patched in through the Allen
& Heath XONE 464 mixing board also located in the Media booth. Additionally,
the facility features 360 Systems' Instant Replay System, which places
instant access to an entire audio library of your own creation, whether
it be music, sound effects, or spoken word, at your disposal. This feature
also has audio editing tools, so it's easy to isolate sound effects,
or make continuous loops.
