Guild Theatre: the first major audio upgrade in more than 20 years
Guild Theatre · East London, South Africa
Summary
The Guild Theatre in East London had gone more than two decades without a major audio upgrade. We fitted a d&b audiotechnik system of point sources, fills and monitors.
The setting
The Guild Theatre is a theatre in East London. Its auditorium has tiered brown seating and a balcony, and it hosts live performance on its stage.
The challenge
The theatre had not had a major audio upgrade in more than 20 years. The audio needed to reach the tiered seating and the balcony, and performers on stage needed to hear themselves.
What we did
We installed a d&b audiotechnik system. It uses d&b V points and 5S fills to cover the seats, and MAX2 monitors on stage so the performers can hear themselves. 30D amplifiers power all of it.
The outcome
The Guild Theatre now has its first major audio upgrade in more than two decades.
