SOUTHEAST CHRISTIAN CHURCH IMPLEMENTS THE XTA DP6i— Spectrum Sound and ADI Group’s Duncan Edwards designs a
complex multi-line array system for the 8,500-seat megachurch in Louisville using the incredibly flexible and reliable DP6i controller —NSCA EXPO, ORLANDO, FL — Southeast Christian Church in Louisville, KY is part of a growing trend of megachurch worship centers across the U.S., each one further raising the bar of technological sophistication for church media systems. To keep up with the increasingly complex requirements of these systems, Nashville, TN-based Spectrum Sound — a leading audio systems designer and installer that specializes in serving the worship technology market — and Clinton, CT-based Duncan Edwards of ADI Group turned to the highly reliable and flexible XTA DP6i digital system controller to handle speaker management for Southeast Christian’s advanced sound system. A total of 17 DP6i controllers were used on the project to manage multiple line arrays and intricate fill systems throughout the massive worship center.
The XTA DP6i was the first and only choice of Spectrum Sound, the system installer hired by Southeast Christian Church, to create a new audio system that meets the challenge of its 8,500-seat scale. A large Adamson sound system was specified comprised of 4 main line arrays, 6 delay line arrays, 12 under-balcony fills, and 4 front fills. “The DP6i is Adamson’s manufacturer-approved controller for its system, and it’s our first choice, too,” says Ken DeBelius, Sales Manager for Spectrum Sound’s contracting division. “This project’s biggest challenge is the number of zones needed to provide proper coverage of sound, everything from spoken word to music. There are a lot of I/Os to handle here. And the DP6i handles them incredibly well.”
In each of its many zones, the XTA DP6i manages the speaker configurations for tasks such as control, EQ, crossover and delay. “The DP6i performs amazingly,” remarks DeBelius. “We’ve been using the DP Series controllers for years. We trust them because they’re reliable, they sound great and they give us tremendous flexibility in configuring systems. The DP6i gives us all that in this installation. We count on them and they always come through.”
