Sensitize Festival Soundsystem Pics

near peterborough

wouldn't say all the gear ginge, but defos a fair chunk.....

ok, the whole thing looks a bit norfolk to me!!

The main rig - a monoblock of bass with the width within the wavelength of frequencys played - likely to cause some nice cancellations at certain frequencys. Mix of midtops, with different components horn lengths and xovers, 'arrayed' so the centre will comb filter the left and right stacks, and the xtros are square and not arrayed thus will comb filter themselves!!

2nd rig - complete mixup of everything and anything, lots of more expensive kit but setup all over the place. Midtops 'arrayed' in a complete mickeymouse fashion, mixed up and pointing all over the place, bass in the brute force arrangement rather than stacked sensibly for minimal fidelity loss.... interesting to say the least!!

3rd rig outside - unsure if it was intentional but looks like the stacks are around 2.#m appart, making a poweralley type effect concentrating the pressure down the punters power alley which i suppose is cool, not enough midtop really unless the gain of the subs were kept right down which i doubt.... Still, dont doubt this sounded the best, simply because its a matched rig designed to be together, deployed correctly and arrayed seemingly well - no random CV JBL 'additions' to 'boost' the midtop massive!!

I kind of understand your frustration ginge, all that gear and not that much of clue how to correctly use it...

Would have been awesome event to visit anyway
