ANAHEIM, CA – Mastermind Production Group Inc. has added JBL VerTec subcompact line array loudspeakers to its stock of rental gear. The recent purchase includes VT4886 line array elements and nine VT4883 arrayable subwoofers.
Other JBL speakers in use by Mastermind include VRX932LA-1 Constant Curvature powered loudspeakers, eight 18-inch VRX918S subwoofers, SRX712M stage monitors and AC25 speakers for use as area fill speakers.
The company said it would be adding more VerTec VT4886 and VT4883 speakers by the end of December.
"Our first event with the VerTec line arrays was a 2,000-seat outdoor Easter service," noted said Chad Griswold, president. "We've done numerous projects since then, and in every case, the VerTec line arrays have been fantastic. They're the type of product where once they're hung properly, the speakers do the rest of the work. You don't have to tweak them at all."
Griswold singled out a recent application at the Lutheran Educators Conference in Palm Desert, CA. "The Conference included a full praise band, a 30-piece choir and various presenters, with about 1,000 people in attendance," he said.
"I entered the venue and speaker information into the JBL Line Array Calculator setup software, and what I heard coming out of the hang was spot-on with the coverage and levels that were represented on my computer screen. I only had to adjust a couple of frequencies on my main graphic EQ, primarily to compensate for acoustical issues in the room. Everybody was very happy with the uniformity of the sound coverage, as well as the sound of the loudspeakers."
