Case Study: Coworth Park - Events Facilities

Outline
Function suites are expected to match any occasion within a high quality prestige venue, offering flexibility to match all the demands of creative event designers. Coworth Park prides itself on positioning events for A list celebrities, international business leaders, politicians and global aristocracy. This cross section creates demand for audio visual services that offer creative potential and reliability far above the competition.

Challenges
Ranges of inputs, cross venue linking, custom link ups and bespoke entertainment from session piano players to private gigs by rock stars all stretch the specification of a system that must be the pinnacle of quality in all situations. Flawless, rapid adaptation of sound engineering to each event is also a challenge while event spaces often impose their own constraints on installation. Scheduled into the build of this new venue, Coworth Park’s event rooms audio visual was also required to accomplish delicate installation alongside multiple constructions services.

Technical
The skeleton of the systems is provided by a wide array of inputs across the entire Coworth Park site, from local line inputs to small band capability, backed up by in house background music sources. The heart is a central AV rack which is capable of almost limitless combinations of input, central processing distribution for either localised breakout control or central event co-ordination.

Built into the capability are video feeds, fully HD enabled projectors bright enough to read in ambient lighting and possible links to other venues. All Radio microphones are fully 2012 compliant and feature invisible aerials with links of up to 90m with no loss of quality.
