NEXO STM Powers the Greatest Dance in the Universe Born out of the fusion of music brought to Argentina by Italian and Spanish immigrants, Cuarto (Quartet) is very much the music of the people, packed with infectious rhythms. A Cuarto festival is always a big event, particularly in its home city of Cordoba and especially when celebrated Cuarto artist La Mona Jimenez tops the bill. And so it was that El Baile Mas Grande Del Universo (the Greatest Dance in the Universe) took place in the parking lot of Estadio Mario Alberto Kempes on February 22, with La Mona joined by fellow Cuarto stars Eugenia Quevedo and LBC (La Banda de Carlitos), attracting a sell-out crowd of 50,000 people. The show got underway at 11pm with the headliner taking the stage at 1:30am. And with a crowd that came to dance, organizers demanded a powerful sound system with plenty of low-end punch. Local production services company Piermarini Sound deployed a NEXO STM system comprising left and right hangs of 12 STM M48 main and B112 nass modules, with additional arrays of eight M48/B112 to address the wide audience area. Thirty-six NEXO STM118 subs stacked two-high across the front of the stage ensured a low-frequency performance that could be felt as much as heard; 12 STM M28 s were deployed as front fills to cover the audience nearest the stage. Ninety-six channels of amplification and processing came from 24 NEXO NXAMP4X4 Powered TD Controllers in a system designed and managed by Nicolas Loyola with support from Martin Onorato of Los Angeles Musica, the NEXO distributor in Argentina.
