Designing systems for deep balconied venues
5.5.22
Typical Question:
My current version of ViewPoint configures the system for a single progressive curvature
from the furthest audience area to the front seats.
I am trying to configure a system for a venue with a deep balcony and, therefore, deep
under-balcony. I need to make sure that the system covers the rear under-balcony area
well because the mix position is there – but I don't want to make the system too loud for
the front balcony seats. I don't want to split the array because I want to maintain mid-bass
impact.
Answer:
Venues with a deep balcony need arrays with double progressive curvatures. This can be
done as follows:
Deep balcony example
The following example is a musical theatre where the distance to the rear of the balcony is
similar to the distance to the under-balcony.

10 x W8LC per side are available. Front-fills and side fills are used for the first 4m.
