Sound amplification system

Technology at the Palacongressi di Rimini was born smart. We have always strived to provide organisers with break through services and solutions to enable the realisation of any project, regardless of their complexity or creativity.
An example of one of our high-tech systems employed during events? One which allows us to transmit and differentiate audio signals to all the rooms from a single source.

All the rooms are interconnected via Ethernet. Using a specific software from a single control room in sala della Piazza, we can transmit audio and visual signals to every room. For instance, simultaneous translation services can be activated in any room, whether there are permanent translation booths or not. In this case, we use our integrated services to distribute selected audio and visual signals wherever they are needed!

BOSCH GROUP DESCRIBES THE SOUND AMPLIFICATION SYSTEM AT THE PALACONGRESSI

"The Palacongressi was inaugurated in 2011, partnering with Bosch to define the standard and performance of all its technical conference systems and sound amplification in the main rooms, as well as the voice alarm system throughout the facility.

Bosch approached the project bearing in mind its client’s needs. The features to be developed included:

1. interconnectivity between all rooms to ensure the transmission of any sound signal form any point via ethernet. CobraNet network was installed, which still today is regarded as the most successful implementation, guaranteeing full operativity.
2. single control source for all the rooms operated from the control room in the sala della Piazza, via an applicative software capable of controlling and monitoring all the rooms. Electro-Voice, part of the IRIS-net software by the Bosch Group was installed.
3. simultaneous translation: with the need to be versatile and adapt to the varying needs of conferences, translations can be made from any booth in the venue. Each booth has audio and video signals to provide the interpret with all the necessary tools.
4. developing the sound architecture in the sala della Piazza was particularly challenging. Given the size of the hall and the fact that it could be divided into separate rooms, meant paying great attention to sound design, to the division of the space, all with designated simultaneous translation services.

All these features led to the creation of a soldi and progressive architecture, ensuring that 12 years on, the Palacongressi is still a cutting-edge facility in terms of conference technology". Fabrizio Altomare, Audio & Conference Technical Manager of Bosch Security Systems.
