Outline System chosen for the Healing Place Church
One of America’s top 25 most innovative churches has chosen Butterfly and mini-COM.P.A.S.S. Outline loudspeakers
Baton Rouge, LA - USA - The Healing Place Church, listed as one of “America’s Most Innovative Churches” (Outreach magazine, Jan/Feb 2008), is a multi-purpose facility that includes a live worship space as well as a complete suite of production spaces for video and audio recording and broadcast. Through the use of extensive technical infrastructure, the production spaces can serve worship in the main sanctuary, or be configured to operate completely independently.
The Sanctuary’s main sound system will consist of three arrays of fourteen Outline "Butterfly" C.D.H. 483 elements each, powered by Outline T7 amplifiers. Low-frequency reinforcement is provided by 10 Outline Subtech 218 SP subwoofers. For delays, six arrays of six mini-COM.P.A.S.S. self-powered line array loudspeakers and two C.D.L. 1815 cardioid subwoofers (full-range and subwoofer loudspeakers suspended together on a custom rigging frame) are used. Front fill for the first audience rows are provided by Outline MICRA II SP self-powered loudspeakers. Both the Outline T7 amplifiers and the Mini-COM.P.A.S.S. self-powered loudspeaker include on-board DSP and networked control capabilities.
For stage foldback, six H.A.R.D. 45 SP and eight H.A.R.D. 115 SP monitors are specified. “Outline loudspeakers were a logical choice, given the comprehensive technical demands of this project. As a compliment to the extensive sound system infrastructure and room acoustical design in the Sanctuary, we are confident that members of the Church will enjoy an unparalleled worship experience” said Steve Sockey, Partner at SIA Acoustics.
Other notable system components include two complete 80-channel Digidesign Profile live mixing systems and a Digidesign ICON-based Pro Tools HD recording system in the production spaces. Transformer-isolated splitters provide signal to each system, as well as the truck bay to accommodate remote broadcast and recording vehicles.
The installation at the Healing Place Church will be completed by September 2009.
