Meyer Sound Spacemap Go Roadshow Adds New Dates from July through December

The Meyer Sound Spacemap Go US Roadshow will roll across the country through the summer and fall with stops in 10 cities, including sessions in conjunction with the Church Facilities Conference & Expo (CFX) in Dallas, September 21-22, and InfoComm 2021 in Orlando, October 26-29. The Roadshow demo sessions are principally focused on Spacemap Go, Meyer Sound’s breakthrough spatial sound design and live mixing tool, although the touring system also showcases other new technologies as incorporated in the ULTRA-X20 compact loudspeaker and VLFC very low-frequency control element.

“We are taking Spacemap Go on the road so customers and users can experience it first-hand,” says Daniel Rivera, Sales Manager, West for Meyer Sound and principal organizer of the tour. “You cannot fully appreciate the power of Spacemap Go until you hear it in action, and you can’t grasp its power and intuitive operation until you have the iPad controller in your hands.”
