Masque Sound Provides Heavenly Audio Upgrade to New York City’s Historic St. Patrick’s Cathedral

In Industry Newsby admin

masque ny 1When New York City’s historic St. Patrick’s Cathedral required a major upgrade to its AV system, Masque Sound, a leading theatrical sound reinforcement, installation and design company, answered the call, providing a complete custom audio equipment and installation package for one of the country’s most recognizable and visited houses of worship.

The Cathedral of St. Patrick (commonly called St. Patrick’s Cathedral) is a decorated Neo-Gothic-style Roman Catholic Church, and a prominent New York City landmark. The seat of the archbishop of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of New York, and a parish church, it is located in Midtown Manhattan. On St. Patrick’s Day 2012, the archdiocese announced that the 135-year-old cathedral would undergo a massive five-year, three-phase, 175-million-dollar renovation due to crumbling bricks, faulty heating, and acid rain and pollution damage, which has eaten away at the building’s Tuckahoe marble. Structuretone served as the general contractor and Jaffe Holden was the AV consultant.

In Industry Newsby admin

flatiron 1Flatirons Community Church in Colorado is renowned for its unique and dynamic atmosphere, attracting 20,000 congregants to the house of worship each week. To best serve such a large amount of people, it has adopted a multi-campus approach that includes video production and live streams between three facilities and to visitors on the Web. Keeping up with the frenetic pace of all that goes into the daily routine, the audio director at Flatirons requires high-quality equipment, including DPA microphones, to ensure every facet of the services are pristine.

Flatirons Community Church Audio Director Bryce Boynton turns to almost all of DPA’s solutions for assistance with his live, recorded and streamed audio needs. These include microphones from nearly all of DPA’s product lines, such as d:facto(tm) Vocal Microphones, d:fine(tm) 66 Headset Microphones, d:screet(tm) 4061 Miniature Microphones and d:dicate(tm) 4006, 4011, and 2011 Recording Microphones, along with all available d:vote(tm) 4099 Instrument Microphones.

“One of the best things about DPA microphones is that discovery is half the process of using them,” says Boynton. “Every day I find a new application for them. Once you become familiar with them, you recognize that the numerous ways you can effectively mic a source continues to grow. It’s all a matter of having a small collection of microphones with additional accessories that allow you to do more, and that’s where DPA really shines.”
