Amplification of Opera In The Round

 

Main sound reinforcement speakers arranged as an exploded cluster arranged around the edge of 
the  performance  space.  This  allows  each  loudspeaker  to  have  a  unique  delay  from  each 
microphone thus enabling TiMax to keep the amplified and acoustic signals in time and maintain 
precedence from the singer or front-fill if the singer is off axis or far away. 

Front fills are built into the stage floor or disguised in scenery or props. These speakers fulfill the 
important task of keeping the sound on the floor while the singer is off axis the audience in that 
area.
