Published: ASIA
JAPAN: Italian manufacturer RCF, supported by its local distributor Ballad Co Ltd, provided the sound reinforcement for the main and secondary stages at the recent Project Fukushima music and art festival.
The event was designed to celebrate a rebirth of the city after the devastating earthquake, tsunami and resulting nuclear accident that occurred earlier this year, and featured musicians and poets born and raised in Fukushima. It featured work from Otomo Yoshihide, Michiro Endo, and the award-winning composer Ryuichi Sakamoto, as well as a performance by a 300 member free-jazz ‘orchestra’ made up of professional and amateur musicians.
For the main stage, RCF supplied eight TTL55-A active line array modules with four TTL36-AS flyable subs and a pair of TT22-A active two-way speakers. Further to this a pair of ART410-A speakers and two ART905-AS subs were also used. Completing the setup were four NX10-SMA and four NX12-SMA active coaxial stage monitors.
The secondary stage required eight RCF NXL23-A active line array modules supplemented by NXS21-A active subs. Completing the setup for this stage was a pair of ART525-A active two-way speakers and a further two ART310-A active speakers.
The festival attracted a crowd of nearly 3,000 and particular praise was reportedly given to the TTL55-A for its performance.
