The Beijing Trade Hotel recently welcoed the National People's Congress to its a event hall. The proceedings involved live music from a number of performers including pianist Yundi Li – all of which were served by a Kling & Freitag Sequenza 10 loudspeker system operated by Shanghai-based MYC Technology Co.
Alongside limiting the loudness of the event, the organiser required even coverage of the large room. To meet these needs, the 40m-wide stage was equipped with four K&F Sequenza 10N for the far field and two K&F Sequenza 10W for the close field. The compact dimensions of the line array system alowed the rig to fit the stage layout. Six K&F Sequenza 10B and two K&F Nomos XLC in cardioid mode provided low-frequency support. The cardioid distribution provides directional bass without creating unwanted ambient sound on the stage.
In total, 40 radio and hand-held microphones were used for the speakers and performers, who also required a high-quality monitor system on stage. This took the form of two Scena 15 cabinets.
All speaker systems were driven by a K&F SystemRack – the combination of the CD44 digital system controller with Lab.gruppen fp10000Q amplifiers allowed quick set-up and high performance of the system.
The highlight of the evening was a performance of ‘Me and my Native Country’ performed by the singers together with the Mayor of Chongqing, Bo Xilai.
Shanghai MYC Technology has handled exclusive distribution of Kling & Freitag systems in Mainland China, Macao and Hong Kong since September 2010.
