EzPro was appointed to supply the sound reinforcement system for the theatre at the Pingtan International Performing Arts Centre in Jinjing Bay, China.
The theatre spans a total area of 38,973 square meters and seats 1,500 audience members.
EZPro installed a dLive S7000 Surface as the main, and a dLive C3500 as the backup. Fan Gaoqing, technical manager of EZPro, detailed the choice: “With a dLive system, we could store and recall different ‘modes’ - by using Show Files, Scenes, and the Preset Library - allowing us to achieve very efficient changes.”
A DM64 MixRack in the control room, connected to the S7000 via the integrated gigaACE port, handles audio processing with a gigaACE audio networking card installed for connection to the backup C3500 Surface.
To provide additional analogue I/O which could be relocated throughout the venue, a DX32 modular expander was deployed.
EZPro also utilised a compact IP8 Controller for remote control. The controller was connected through the network port on the rear panel of the S7000 via a network cable.
Fan concluded: “The dLive system ticks all the boxes. A flexible FOH position, ease-of-use and fast setup. And the variety of built-in DEEP Processors greatly helped FOH engineers to deliver a studio-quality mix in the large venue.”
