ELECTRO-VOICE, DYNACORD, MIDAS AND KLARK TEKNIK SOUND SYSTEMS FOR “TOKYO MIDTOWN”
Opened in March 2007 in Tokyo’s Roppongi district, “Tokyo Midtown” is a complex of commercial spaces, office buildings, convention halls, performance areas and conference rooms, complete with a hotel and art museum.
A complete range of sound reinforcement products from Bosch Communications Systems brands Electro-Voice, Dynacord, Midas and Klark Teknik were selected to meet the high standards demanded by the Tokyo Midtown Management, the result of a rigorous three year R&D process involving the Joho Dentatsu Institute, M&N Sound Projects Inc. and Towa Engineering Corporation.
“It’s far easier to design a premium system like this using high quality products from a single vendor, products that work seamlessly together,” says Mr. Kameguchi, General Manager, Tokyo Midtown Hall and Conference Center. “Our research process combined technical analysis with professional experience to ensure we achieved an optimal balance of sound quality, complete coverage and architecture-friendliness.”
The goal in the main conference hall, for example, was natural sound that didn’t draw attention to itself due to an obvious point source, while offering the power handling and intelligibility of a concert-quality system. This was achieved with a distribution of 74 ceiling–mounted EV ZX1i loudspeakers, providing even coverage across every inch of the space. Electro-Voice N/D767a microphones provide warm vocal response at the other end of the signal path. A compact portable system inventory including six Dynacord D-Lite systems, Dynacord AM12 monitors, ten Midas Venice 160 mixing consoles and ten Klark Teknik Square One Graphics is on hand when the main hall is split up for various functions.
The commercial spaces in Tokyo Midtown, along with the Galleria, meeting rooms and Suntory Museum of Art, are equipped with over 300 EV EVID C4.2 recessed ceiling loudspeakers, providing virtually invisible high quality BGM sound reinforcement that is unmatched by other “low profile” systems. EV ZX1i and Dynacord D-Lite systems delivered compact concert-quality sound for the recent month-long “Midtown Garden Café” open-air event program.
