1.10 W8Cs as front fills
Wavefront W8Cs may be used as stage apron fills for high power rock concerts.
When carefully placed on radii converging at the centre downstage (lead vocal) area
and sychronised with the main PA downfills, these apron fills don't just balance the
subwoofers. They can focus vocals and add a detailed quality that can be beneficial
right out to the mix position.
If the apron fill loudpeaker signal is delayed by the difference between the downfill
propagation time and the apron fill propagation time and attenuated by the ratio of
those propagation times, the sound will appear to come from an area in between the
two systems for the listener shown.
