Dataton WATCHOUT User's Guide

Sound
The sound system should be properly configured –possibly including equalization
–for the show environment. Keep in mind that a large audience often has
a significant impact on the acoustics.
The placement of individual speakers in multi-channel systems needs to be
thought out carefully, and taken into consideration in the production process.
◆ HINT: Special screen material exists that allows you to conceal loudspeakers
behind a screen, if desired.
Once adjusted, the sound system should require little or no maintenance.Ifg the
number of viewers, or their age range, varies significantly, you may want to
install a general volume control.
For large or complex installations, a separate control system – such as Dataton
TRAX – can be used to manage sound levels, crowd flow and other aspects of
the environment.
