As a main sound system, the Nexo Geo T large format tangent line array system was chosen. It was already proven during the Melodifestivalen earlier this year in the same arena. It fulfills our need for clarity and efficiency plus it’s tiltable and lightweight for this application (important in an already crowded roof! click for larger image)

 

The interesting thing with this arrangement is the unusual way of using a main front fill hanging system as a delayed system. A smaller version above the stage is used as a main and its level is under control of Matthias Winther at FOH in order to attenuate the level of speakers above the stage in cases when there is not a music performance (hosts are talking, voting, etc…) – basically when the main attention is focused somewhere into the downstage area.

 

 

 

Here is the brain for the whole show – the Midas XL 8 digital console (1 main and 1 backup). Here is where audio signals, fiber or analogue multicors are received and distributed to the next audio worlds. Because we are talking about a fully backed up sound system, everything is doubled – the processors, splitters, network converters, UPS, etc… The only thing on this show that doesn’t have a back up is: we don’t have another Ola!  We have a third Midas XL 8 in our in ear monitor rehearsal room, where the artist gets a 30 minute rehearsal session, prior to their onstage rehearsal. I need to try to remember to get a portable AC unit into this room before Monday…………

FOH uses 2 Midas Pro 9 consoles (main and backup)
