Seoul church installs Harman sound systems
- Details
Founded in 1988, Oryun Community Church is a South Korean Christian organisation that operates multiple churches and worship spaces in and around Seoul.
Having had a positive experience with Harman products during their last renovation, Oryun Church hired TechData to design systems for both the Vision Centre and Vision Village facilities.
"We were very satisfied with the Harman solutions we acquired in our 2015 renovation,” says Sunho Ju, sound director at Oryun Community Church. “Since Vision Village is not only our training centre but also available for outside rental, we needed a solution that would be easy for anyone to use, including those who are less familiar with technology. TechData solved this by installing an AMX touch panel control system at Vision Village, which allows us to control our equipment with ease."
At Oryun Vision Centre, TechData selected a combination of JBL VTX V20 and VT4886 line array loudspeakers with VTS S25 subwoofers to provide adequate power and coverage for the main sound reinforcement system. Two-way JBL AC15, AC18/26 and AM512/95 loudspeakers supplement the main system, providing high output and full-range sound in compact form factors with 5.25", 8" and 12" low-frequency drivers, respectively.
Crown I-Tech 4x3500HD and 12000HD amplifiers, supplemented by DCi 8|600N and 2|600N models, provide plenty of power and headroom for the extensive sound system. BSS BLU-806 and BLU-50 signal processors form a powerful digital audio network that offers flexible routing and powerful DSP across the complex system.
On stage, AKG C568B shotgun microphones provide clean, isolated signals and WMS 420 wireless microphone kits give worship leaders and speakers freedom of movement while delivering crystal-clear sound. JBL VP7212MDP powered stage monitors ensure that everyone onstage can hear clearly, and musicians use dbx PMC16 personal monitor controllers to fine-tune their own monitor mixes.
Church staff use Soundcraft Vi3000 and Si Expression 2 digital consoles and JBL LSR308 8" powered studio monitors to deliver clear, powerful live mixes for the congregation. TechData also included a JBL EON206P portable PA system for outdoor and remote events. For Oryun Vision Village, TechData selected a similar range of solutions.
