Allen & Heath ML5000 at Miracle Theatre in South Florida
Allen & Heath ML5000 at Miracle Theatre in South Florida
Actors' Playhouse at the Miracle Theatre in South Florida has installed a 48-input Allen & Heath ML5000 27-buss live sound VCA console in its 600-seat Mainstage auditorium as part of an audio system upgrade. The Miracle Theater, a private/public partnership with the City of Coral Gables, is a first class performing arts facility that also includes the 300-seat Balcony Theatre and 100-seat Black Box Theatre.
Head audio engineer Alexander Herrin, who has been at the theater for a year and a half, explains, "This summer we decided to upgrade our sound system. We were replacing a three- or four-year-old console that had just fallen to pieces. They asked me what I thought we should get. I'd worked with the GL4000 in the past and told them that I really like Allen & Heath."
Herrin continues, "Phil Mester from StageTech, who installed the system, brought us a console to try out, a 32-channel ML5000." StageTech, Inc., located near Austin, TX, supplied and installed the entire system, which also includes a Stage Accompany Performer Series speaker system. "We're running LCR, which is another reason why this console is great, with its panning capability," says Herrin.
The flagship of the Allen & Heath range, the ML5000 features the company's proprietary LCRplus panning capability, which allows signals to be blended and panned anywhere across the Center and Left/Right busses. The dual functionality of the FOH/monitor console allows any combination of 12 aux sends and 8 subgroups to be assigned to fader control with inserts and metering. The ML5000 includes 8 VCA groups and snapshot automation with an RS232/MIDI interface.
The new audio system is installed and ready for the opening of the new season, which will start in October with the rock 'n' roll musical "Return to the Forbidden Planet." "That will be a lot of fun, with a new sound system and a new console to run it on. It's sounding fantastic," Herrin reports. "The whole system is just a huge upgrade."
Founded in 1987 and located in an art deco showcase movie house built in the 1950s, Actors' Playhouse at the Miracle Theatre is dedicated to entertaining and culturally enriching South Florida audiences by producing quality live theatre for adults and children at affordable prices.
