For a sound installation contractor, building the sound
system for a historical theater renovation can be a challenging,
exciting, and ultimately rewarding project. The Pantages
Theater in downtown Minneapolis is a perfect example.
It demonstrates how the latest sound reinforcement technology —
such as linear arrays and DSP remote-controlled amps, integrated
with best-in-class analog mixing console technology — can make a
classic performance space sound great while helping to preserve
its vintage charm.
The entire Pantages sound system was built with equipment from
three of the most trusted brands in professional audio:
Electro-Voice
®
, Midas, and Klark Teknik. Since all three are part of
the Telex Pro Audio Group, product teams maintain close contact,
engineering and testing products together. This creates a synergy
across the brands that, in the case of the Pantages, was a major
contributor to making a large, complicated sound system
come together without compatibility concerns and on a very
tight schedule.
