EAW KF Series at Jakarta International Java Jazz Festival
JAKARTA, Indonesia – The three-day Jakarta International Java Jazz Festival drew more than 100,000 to the Jakarta International Expo Kemayoran (JIE) to hear a variety of performances including jazz, soul, hip-hop, rock, Latino and world fusion music. Sumber Ria Sound included EAW KF Series line arrays for the sound system.
JIE is an exhibition venue,
but it fits perfectly to accommodate the festival's growing audience, noted
Andre Supryanata from Sumber Ria Sound, which was tasked with supporting
performances from artists including John Legend, Bob James, Lee Ritenour, Toni
Braxton, George Duke, Kenny Babyface Edmonds and others. What we have to do
now is present the best audio system that can cover up the lacking acoustic
treatment of the building.
P.T. Kairos Multi Jaya, EAW's
Indonesian distributor, worked with Sumber Ria Rental Company to outfit six of
the event's eight stages with over 88 EAW KF760 Line Array Modules, which
included the recently-unveiled KF740 3-Way Full Range Line Array Loudspeakers
as delays at two of the stages.
Halls D1 and D2 were the main
stages of the event, using the KF760s configured in L-R clusters of 12 cabinets
per side, and 20 EAW SB550L vented subwoofers were provided for the low end. In
Halls A2 and A3, Sumber Ria slightly altered that configuration, using 10
KF760s per side.
Jonathan Steiner, the FOH mix
engineer for the opening night at Hall D1, noted that the show went on
brilliantly, possibly better than ever. Pratama Budiman, also with Sumber Ria,
echoed that sentiment. The EAW KF Series simply sounds great. That's the way
the FOH mixers and everyone else felt.
