USA - The 67th annual Monterey Jazz Festival featured performances by artists like Mavis Staples, Stanley Clarke, and Samara Joy. The festival was powered by a Meyer Sound Panther system paired with 2100‑LFC elements, all provided by McCune Audio. Meyer’s technical design specialist, Tom Dalske, provided ground support throughout the event.
“It was great to see an updated Meyer Sound rig in the arena this year,” says Dalske. “We had a fun time interacting with the crowd at the sound booth, and there was a lot of positive feedback. It was exciting to see the reactions of some of the guest engineers who hadn’t yet mixed on Panther. I really enjoyed being a part of such a historic show, and hearing Morgan Freeman on the PA.”
The festival’s sound was driven by an impressive setup featuring 16 large-format linear line array loudspeakers, four 2100-LFC low-frequency control elements, and a Galileo Galaxy Network Platform.
“From quintet to R&B act, to symphony, the Meyer Panther/2100-LFC system performed brilliantly,” says FOH engineer Tim Tetiva.
