It\u2019s also a favorite of local bass-guitar hero Robby Takac, of the Buffalo-born Goo Goo Dolls, who uses the venue for his annual&nbsp;<em>Music Is Art<\/em>&nbsp;festival. And now this 60,000-square-foot multipurpose venue also has big sound to match its many options, with the recent addition of a new L-Acoustics K3 sound reinforcement system. The audio equipment was installed in December by Buffalo Pro Audio Group, and purchased through Las Vegas-based L-Acoustics Certified Provider 3G Productions, which also provided design services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cK3 is the perfect solution for our music venue,\u201d says Marc Vitagliano, Buffalo RiverWorks\u2019 GM and Entertainment Director, who adds that the venue has had experience with L-Acoustics sound systems since it was expanded in 2016, with concert and event promoters like MNM Presents and After Dark Entertainment renting a Kara II system locally. As the number of concerts steadily increased over the next several years, Vitagliano says it became clear that it was worth investing in a house-owned sound system. Based on the venue\u2019s experience and comments from visiting tour-sound professionals, as well as advice from Buffalo Pro Audio Group and 3G Productions, L-Acoustics was the clear choice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-id=\"92334\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/la-riverworks-1-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"Buffalo RiverWorks is now equipped with an L-Acoustics K3 concert sound system\" class=\"wp-image-92334\" srcset=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/la-riverworks-1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/la-riverworks-1-300x169.jpg 300w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/la-riverworks-1-768x432.jpg 768w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/la-riverworks-1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Buffalo RiverWorks is now equipped with an L-Acoustics K3 concert sound system<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The new system comprises 18 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.l-acoustics.com\/products\/K3\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">K3<\/a> enclosures, nine per side, mounted on six carts evenly divided left and right.

In the meantime, the club staff has already put the system through its paces with a few in-house test shows during which Vitagliano says they immediately realized that they had made the right choice. \u201cAs soon as we heard the first notes, we got chills,\u201d he recalls. \u201cIt sounds like a great hi-fi system and we can\u2019t wait for our visiting bands and audiences to experience it. These upgrades are just the beginning as RiverWorks has many more plans and will continue to reinvest and make upgrades to be the best concert venue and entertainment complex in the region.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-3 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"585\" data-id=\"92342\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/la-riverworks-5-1024x585.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-92342\" srcset=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/la-riverworks-5-1024x585.jpg 1024w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/la-riverworks-5-300x172.jpg 300w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/la-riverworks-5-768x439.jpg 768w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/la-riverworks-5.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Left to right: Buffalo Pro Audio Group Owner Nate Howell with Buffalo RiverWorks GM\/Entertainment Director Marc Vitagliano and CEO Bill Casale at the venue\u2019s newly L-Acoustics-equipped stage<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>For info on Buffalo RiverWorks, visit&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/eur01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.buffaloriverworks.com%2F&amp;data=05%7C02%7Ccamille.palmich%40l-acoustics.com%7C7f30793bdcdf4d379cee08dc1b773dc3%7C68e431e8d632483eae79f28a7b4c69e6%7C0%7C0%7C638415447320937904%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&amp;sdata=sEkApxAV0%2B5JEoxNX2eod%2FMCkJP84a%2Fg6of3kQX665w%3D&amp;reserved=0\">www.buffaloriverworks.co<\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.buffaloriverworks.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">m<\/a>.
