In an outdoor music festival, a high-quality sound system is essential to creating a shocking music experience. As a professional audio equipment manufacturer, Sinbosen's products can provide powerful audio support for music festivals. This article will give you a detailed introduction on how to use Sinbosen's speakers and amplifiers to build an outdoor music festival sound system suitable for about 10,000 people.
1. Selection of audio equipment
Line array speakers: Considering the scale of the music festival and the coverage of the venue, Sinbosen's line array speakers were selected. Line array speakers have high sound pressure levels, wide coverage, and uniform sound field distribution points, which can ensure that the sound is clearly audible in a large area. For a real case of customer matching, we chose KA-3, which is 24 double twelve-inch two-way line array speakers, and 12 are hung in a group. The sound reinforcement uses KA208, which is 6 double eight-inch two-way line array speakers.
Amplifier matching: 12 KA-3s are in a group, and a group of speakers is matched with three A-12X1s. A total of six units are required. In addition, an A-12X1 is needed to push KA208.
Subwoofer: K-28, 16 dual 18-inch subwoofers were selected.
Monitor speakers: 12 15X, 15-inch monitor speakers.
Amplifier matching: One A-12X1 for every four K-28s, a total of 4 units are required
One A-12X1 for every four 15Xs, a total of three units are required.
2. System construction and debugging:
Installation layout: Place the amplifier in the equipment room on the side or back of the stage to ensure good ventilation to facilitate the heat dissipation of the amplifier. The line array speakers are installed on the trusses on both sides of the stage through the hanging device, with a moderate height so that the sound can cover every corner of the audience area. The point source speakers are placed on the ground on both sides of the front and back of the stage, and supported by brackets.
Connection debugging: Connect the output end of the amplifier to the input end of the speaker through professional audio cables to ensure a firm and reliable connection. Debug the entire sound system at the mixer, including volume balance, frequency response, phase adjustment, etc. Fine-tune the volume and sound quality of each speaker by playing test tracks of different styles of music to achieve the best auditory effect.
3.Precautions
Power supply guarantee: The sound power system of the outdoor music festival is large, and a stable power supply needs to be ensured. It is recommended to use multiple power lines and equip with backup generators to prevent power failures from causing sound interruptions.
Waterproof and dustproof: The outdoor environment is complex, so pay attention to waterproof and dustproof treatment of the sound equipment. Cover the surface of the speaker and amplifier with a waterproof cover, avoid direct rain and sun exposure at the installation location of the equipment, and take good sealing measures for the equipment to prevent dust from entering the equipment and affecting performance.
Through the above reasonable combination of sound and amplifier, as well as careful system construction and debugging, you can create a shocking, clear and uniform sound effect for an outdoor music festival of about 10,000 people, so that every audience can immerse themselves in wonderful music.
