Event Details

Avante Audio provided the complete audio system for the outdoor Arena Plaza Stage at the 2022 NAMM show, which was sponsored by Avante Audio’s sister company, ADJ Lighting. Showcasing an eclectic line-up of musical performers across three days, the stage hosted everything from bluegrass to mariachi and ska to blues.

Two hangs of ten Imperio Pro array modules provided the main P.A., while two additional hangs of eight Imperio modules were used for delay towers. Low frequency was covered by 24 A18S active sub cabinets arranged in a cardioid configuration along the front of the stage, while four additional Imperio SUB210 cabinets were located at the delay position. In addition, Achromic Series A12 speakers served as wedges providing foldback to the performers on stage.

While smaller than in years past with a total of 46,627 registered attendees, show visitors and exhibitors alike were happy to have been at the show. For recaps of NAMM 2022, go to www.plsn.me/FOH-NAMM-1 and www.namm.org.
