Once the hardware was fastened, aircraft cable was fed through and they were able to close up the ceiling. To ensure safe and structurally sound positioning of the PA, a drywaller cut access holes through the ceiling to locate I-beams for IPS to attach the rigging. We are thankful that IPS trusted us to work closely with their team to design and fabricate a wholistic solution that met both the acoustic design and aesthetic look for their client.” Jeremy Seawell, d&b Southeast regional manager, said: “IPS brought us a project that required custom rigging beyond our standard product offerings including a special colour paint finish to meet the clean aesthetic for their client, Vienna Presbyterian Church. IPS also chose the newer 44S as under-balcony fills. To address the concern of aesthetics, IPS designed the main PA system to utilise white speakers and custom rigging brackets, fabricated by d&b’s custom solution division, to fly the Vi-GSUB above the ALi series speakers in sleek arrays that almost disappear in the room.

d&b has a long lifespan so we’re confident that this new PA will outlive any major changes or renovations at the church and allow for more flexibility for larger events the church might want to host.”
MIXING LIVE SOUND CHURCH FULL
Andy Bosquet, integration general manager at IPS emphasised: “We knew this high-quality d&b system would solve VPC’s immediate sound needs while giving them an amazing sound system with full coverage of all seats in the sanctuary. IPS designed and installed the audio and video system starting with extensive testing of all equipment at its TN facility and selected d&b Audiotechnik. There was a sweet spot in the centre of our sanctuary where it sounded pretty good, but it was a muddy mess on the sides and under the balcony.” This caused major mixing issues because you could never get it above a certain quality. Matt Torres, project manager & consultant for VPC said, “Prior to the new install, VPC’s speakers were hung above and behind the stage – so instead of being out front, they were out of sight, near the ceiling and enclosed behind screens.
MIXING LIVE SOUND CHURCH UPGRADE
VPC needed an upgrade to address issues of quality, dated equipment and lack of even sound distribution and intelligibility.
MIXING LIVE SOUND CHURCH INSTALL
Previous install attempts with other vendors did not take the impact of the contours of the space into consideration resulting in inadequate sound distribution to its congregation. The space is horseshoe-shaped and outfitted with high ceilings and a second-floor balcony. IPS provided a design that both complemented the traditional church architecture while addressing the need for pristine sound and acoustic quality.įor almost 12 years, Vienna Presbyterian Church has experienced significant audio challenges in its uniquely designed house of worship.

Working with IPS, church leadership identified sound quality, lifespan, and aesthetics as key elements it wanted to be addressed. Vienna Presbyterian Church (VPC) located in Vienna, USA, has partnered with Integrated Production Solutions (IPS) to complete an audio and video upgrade to address the audio challenges of its traditional space.
