The audio-focused programme will bring together touring, installation, and event production professionals, and will highlight a range of technical presentations and discussion panels on "the hottest topics in the professional audio business, such as the emerging IEEE 802.1 Audio/Video Bridging (AVB) networking standard".
A highlight will be a demonstration of the self-powered JM-1P arrayable loudspeaker, a system designed to provide precise and seamless coverage in tight-packed arrays.
In addition to exchanging industry information, attendees are invited to take a close look at the latest developments from Meyer Sound's active R&D department at the Berkeley, Calif. headquarters, and join a behind-the-scenes tour of Meyer Sound Germany's new facilities, which include a designated classroom for technical seminars and the company's European technical support and service centres.
The event programme is scheduled daily from 9am to 6pm, and the festivities will conclude on a high note with a party starting at 7pm on Saturday 10 October 10.
"Meyer Sound is known for developing legendary products and we want to provide our guests an opportunity to familiarise themselves with tomorrow's technologies," says Sascha Khelifa, managing director of Meyer Sound Germany. "AVB and the fourth generation of our show control system are innovations that will shape the events of the future and are topics of interest to designers, event management companies, and other decision makers."
Jim Sides, CEO of Meyer Sound Germany, adds: "We will be demonstrating some of our new products for the first time in continental Europe, such as the JM-1P arrayable loudspeakers, the Galileo 408, and the MM-4XPD, the directional version of our bestseller MM-4XP loudspeaker. We hope that the technologies and products being presented will spark new ideas for the audio community and we look forward to the exchange amongst our attendees."
