Fredericia, Denmark \u2013 April 2021 – <\/strong>The Eksercerhuset<\/a>, or exercise house, sits in the center of Fredericia, home of the Royal Danish Army\u2019s Signals Regiment. It was constructed in 1863 as part of the old B\u00fclow Barracks and has been used as a temporary performance venue for the last few years, hosting concerts and other events such as stand-up comedy. Its temporary nature meant renting in sound, light, and staging, as well as wardrobe and toilet facilities for each show. In 2020, local authorities decided to make the venue a permanent performing arts center and to install the necessary infrastructure to ensure the space continues to attract quality performances. Following a demo shoot-out, the Eksercehuset team awarded the project to L-Acoustics Danish distributor, Matrix Sales<\/a>, who installed Europe\u2019s first L-Acoustics K3<\/a> system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Owned by the Commune of Fredericia<\/a>, Eksercehuset\u2019s venue head, Sune Rasmussen, oversaw the sound installation. His goal was to give the venue the ability to host a wide variety of music programming – from EDM to classical or heavy rock – all delivered with state-of-the-art sound quality. The commune tasked consultant Martin Poulsen with realizing the project, and Poulsen invited six companies to submit designs according to his specifications. During onsite demos, measurements were methodically recorded and subsequently evaluated by a team of experts chosen by Poulsen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Henrik Bonn\u00e9, Sales Manager, Pro Audio for Matrix Sales, worked with Oskar Meijer at L-Acoustics to design a system around the newly launched compact, full-range K3 line array. \u201cThe full-range bandwidth of K3 gives it the ability to reproduce any music genre,\u201d explains Bonn\u00e9. \u201cDuring the demos, K3 was perceived as the best overall sounding solution over the complete frequency spectrum and for coverage.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

K3 has dual 12\u201d drivers in a box with the form factor of a dual 10\u201d. This allowed Matrix to specify stereo hangs with only eight speakers. Two stacks of three KS28<\/a> and a center stack of two KS21<\/a> give the system punch without excessive low frequencies on stage.  Left, right and center fill is catered for with two A10 Focus<\/a> and two X8<\/a>. Twelve X12 <\/a>coaxials, with two KS21 subs are used as monitors and side\/drum fill. Two L-Acoustics P1<\/a> processors, which combine an EQ station with delay and dynamics processing, run in 8×8 matrix mode and cater for all input configurations, with six LS10 switches providing connectivity for the redundant AVB network. The system is driven by a total of seven LA12X<\/a> amplified controllers for the main PA and four LA4X for wedges, drum, and sidefills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe took advantage of the Panflex variable directivity of K3 to avoid sending sound to the sidewalls of the venue, which are very close to the main hangs,\u201d explains Bonn\u00e9. \u201cSoundvison and careful system design were also useful in avoiding reflections from the side and back walls of the room.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe venue\u2019s owners are delighted with the result,\u201d concludes Bonn\u00e9. \u201cWe are hoping to be able to open Eksercerhuset\u2019s doors in May and let audiences hear the amazing new K3 system.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
