Simon Yapp, head of audio visual and sound at Glyndebourne Opera House, and his colleague Keith Benson, head of lighting, needed to find a solution to replace the venue's old paging system, which had become unsupportable. The new solution was required to not only replace the original paging system with 16 zones but offer increased flexibility without throwing away the existing cable infra-structure and speaker system, all of which were still serviceable.
