“The project’s success was underpinned by the expertise of Roger Drego whose extensive experience and deep understanding of handling audio brands, coupled with our skilled Alphatec team, proved invaluable in overcoming the unique challenges posed by the Birla Auditorium. His guidance was instrumental in navigating the complexities of the project and harnessing the power and precision of CODA Audio. The final result was a transformed audio experience, bringing the historic Birla Auditorium into the modern age of sound reinforcement.”

“When I unmuted the system and the first song was played, the crew just went ‘Wow!’. You can imagine that with more than a hundred mics on the choir, feedback could be quite an issue, but we were able to drive a very high level with amazing clarity and intelligibility and no aggressivity. On my main desk, with all the choirs and classical instruments, there’s no EQ at all - only local - it’s just amazing -  no phase problems, nothing. It’s just so very natural.”

Our objective when renewing the sound reinforcement system was to significantly improve the electro-acoustic sound situation in the stadium with a high-quality, attractively priced solution.

“The job would have been extremely difficult without CODA’s technology. It took me some time and a very careful approach to make my decisions, but with CODA’s System Optimiser, I was confident that my predictions would be accurate. As well as the main system, we used some delays to increase coverage without getting louder.”

" At the beginning of December I created a simulation based on city maps and a 3D stage design, and planned the corresponding main, out, near fills and delay hangs. CODA’s proprietary prediction software System Optimiser is essential. It’s an irreplaceable tool for realistically simulating the coverage across the site.”
