Meyer Sound

Meyer Sound has produced a scaled-down Milo - to be known as Mica - which sits somewhere between Milo and the M2D, "the latter a product more suited to the theatre market and not really intended for use in live concert," says John Meyer. Mica boasts the same signature as its bigger cousin, greater headroom and an ability to take abuse. "We launched this product at Frankfurt because it's a more European-style box," added Meyer, indicating a nod to the generally lower weight limits of European venues. "We've also simplified the internal rigging, eliminating that potential for people to get their fingers pinched between cabinets when making adjustments. Compared to M2D you can push this system much harder." Pause. "But inevitably some theatre people will want to use Mica in theatres," he added resignedly. Meyer, more than many, tries very hard to educate his users, but as anyone who's ever used a knife to drive a screw will know, people often don't listen.

Also from Meyer, the MVC, a one-box solution for a specific job in India. Based on an M1D array, Meyer has built a top mounted Sub and six M1D cabinets into a simple single box unit for install purposes. "It was such a neat solution for this one job, we decided to make it available as a distinct product, ideal for use in large venues with low ceilings, typically 15-20ft high, needing long throw delivery."
