PA Geluid Adds Outline's Mini-COM.P.A.S.S. System

PA Geluid purchased Outline systems through the Audio Specialist.

The Audio Specialists, Outline's distributor for Benelux and Germany, has taken a Mini-COM.P.A.S.S. -- COMpact Polar Adjustable Sound System -- to the Netherlands.

Rental company PA Geluid, based in Beuningen, the Netherlands, has purchased a complete package including twelve Mini-COM.P.A.S.S., two Flysub 15, and two DBS-18-2 subwoofers. The systems -- all self-powered -- feature Outline's proprietary iMode technology.

Every Outline enclosure equipped with iMode can be controlled using an iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch, with native applications, in real time, via Wi-Fi (apps are downloadable from Apple Store's Productivity category). During a concert, this offers the advantage of being able to control a line array made up of various elements by means of just a tablet.

This is the case with the Mini-COM.P.A.S.S. and its companion Flysub 15 subwoofer. In the specific case of Mini-COM.P.A.S.S., the app also governs the sixteen possible combinations of horizontal dispersion (60- to 150-degrees) that this system -- unique on the international compact line array scenario -- puts at system engineers' disposal.

PA Geluid's owner, Paul Achterberg, states, "We needed a flexible, lightweight, but very powerful line array system for applications such as theatre and live events, and were introduced to the Outline Mini-COM.P.A.S.S. system, which continued to surprise us from then on. Whether used in line array or ground-stacked configuration, it delivers stunningly high audio quality. The cabinet's wings can be easily adjusted to obtain the various dispersion angles often required from a line array and sonic performance is so good one suspects cabinets hidden elsewhere, as the Mini-COM.P.A.S.S. units are so compact."

He adds, "When introduced to the Outline's iMode control, our engineers smiled. Run on an iPad, the GUI shows real-time audio / system info and one has real-time EQ control of tone balance and volumes for each cabinet in such a simple manner -- unbelievable! This mini-COM.P.A.S.S. system is by far the most versatile and compact line array / ground stack system on the market today. I think people should wake up and try this magnificent Outline product."

Axel Nagtegaal of The Audio Specialists concludes: "We are very proud Paul chose Outline Mini-COM.P.A.S.S., as he is known as a person who doesn't come to compromises on audio quality. Ever since we started distributing Outline, we have experienced a real wave of positive feedback on the systems we sold, and that I believe is what drives us all in this industry -- passion for life, audio, and technology."
