Ralph Heinz, VP of R&D, said: "We have had amazing reactions to the PN102/LA, our first foray into line array design. Based on that experience, and to meet customers' demands for a very high power but reference quality system, we developed a unique Renkus-Heinz solution, combining two technologies with lightweight, high power amplification to build a new standard in high performance line array design."Also from Renkus-Heinz, the STLA/9 is a lightweight, 'full-size' self-powered line array module (the STXLA/9 is the passive version). With 139dB peak SPL broadband per module, the STLA/9 can handle the largest sound reinforcement applications - yet the self-powered version weighs in at under 200lbs (86.2kg).
R-H also announced that the company would be distributing EASERA, the Electronic and Acoustic System Evaluation and Response Analyzer from Software Design Ahnert GmbH.
EASERA provides a software-based audio measurement system featuring four independent modules - a measurement module, a signal generator, a real-time analyzer, and a post-processing module. Hardware requirements are minimal; the program will support complex and powerful data acquisition systems using up to 32 simultaneous inputs and outputs with individual volume controls, record and playback modes and re-sampling.
