With 1,750-seats used for the screenings, the Palast was also the biggest among the cinemas and played an important role for the festival's record ticket sales reaching 274,112. Deployed behind a perforated screen, Meyer Sound's M'elodie line array loudspeaker system provided an extraordinary sound experience for the critical film industry audiences at Friedrichstadtpalast, despite the theatre's wide dimensions, which are atypical for movie exhibitions. ]]> PR <pr@meyersound.com> http://www.meyersound.com/news/2009/berlin_film_festival/ Wed, 01 Jul 2009 17:47:13 -0700 http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/MeyerSoundNews/~3/iBO9T9srfEI/ Few movies this year will be as high profile as Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. Once again, Decepticon and Autobot Transformers are brought to life to do battle on the big screen. Filmmakers know that it is the sound, with all the organic and mechanical sound effects that breathes life into the created CGI characters that are as much the stars in this franchise as their human counterparts. ]]> PR <pr@meyersound.com> http://www.meyersound.com/news/2009/transformers/ Thu, 25 Jun 2009 10:33:06 -0700 http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/MeyerSoundNews/~3/gJfRbZ5aGR4/ Meyer Sound has introduced the JM-1P arrayable loudspeaker, a self-powered high-Q system designed to integrate seamlessly in tight-packed clusters where horizontal coverage must be predictably scaled to exacting requirements. Distinguished by its precisely defined 20-degree horizontal by 60-degree vertical pattern, the JM-1P delivers controlled coverage while minimizing reverberation in large or reflective acoustical environments.

Cultural worlds collided in the best way possible when Opera at the Ballpark returned to AT&T Park on June 5th with a free simulcast of Tosca, setting a new ballpark attendance record for San Francisco Opera with an estimated 27,000 viewers. For its fourth simulcast, Bay Area rental house Pro Media / UltraSound turned to Meyer Sound products for the reliability, clarity, and power required to knock the job out of the proverbial park (and literal home to the San Francisco Giants baseball team).
