Re: [microsound] audio spotlight

[bryan garcia <brymoxine@xxxxxxxxx>]

i haven't heard this show,  but we use the audio
spotlight system in exhibitions at the museum i work
at in austin texas.   its a remarkable effect, but to
be honest the amplification is terrible, and there are
few ways to correct for this.   one  bass knob and one
gain.  i suppose we could run a rack mount equalizer
somewhere in the chain, but thats no really in our
budget. 

i also expected the sound to be a little more
isolated.  
you can get bleed for up to 20 feet in the radius of
the speaker and we were hoping for a more limited
range to work in conjunction with our exhibition
purposes.  

we're now using ipod listening stations which present
their own brand of public / art / audio consumption
problems. 

thanks for this article and link though/

best,
