Music Gear Installations chooses Electro-Voice and Dynacord systems for Canal Turn in Nottingham

The regeneration project at Nottingham’s Island Quarter is turning a 36-acre former industrial site into a mixed-use space with multi-functional public spaces as well as areas to live, work and relax. The Canal Turn performance space is one of the first examples of what the new district will bring to the city, with a stage that can handle everything from solo artists to full festivals.

Canal Turn is set to be the cultural centerpiece of the Island Quarter development, with plans in place for the venue to host everything from music and live theatre to locally created art and open-air public speaking. The job of creating the solution for this space fell to local AV installers Music Gear Installations, part of the MGD Group.

Music Gear Installations enlisted the help of Bosch consultant Neal Allen, who suggested a solution he knows well from his time as a touring FOH engineer, the X2 line array systems for live sound applications from Electro-Voice’s X-Line Advance line array family. The open-air stage at Canal Turn is now covered by six X2-212/90 line-array elements per side with two X12-128 subwoofers delivering the low frequencies. On stage, artists are supported by eight Electro-Voice MFX-15MC multi-functional coax monitors.

The system is powered by Dynacord amplifiers, with IPX units handling the MFX stage monitors and TGX models responsible for the main PA. An MXE5 Matrix Mix Engine delivers the routing and mixing capabilities while Sonicue Sound System Software provides control and configuration for the solution.
