New sound system in a historic building – LD Systems MAILA at the Centro Cultural Vicente Aleixandre

It has taken more than a year to renovate the Centro Cultural Vicente Aleixandre, but now the cultural centre in the Spanish town of Alhaurín de la Torre near Málaga radiates a new splendour. Both the façade and the historic interiors were renovated, and the latter were equipped with modern technology. The old, outdated sound system in the main hall was also replaced. The system integrator, Sonido Martin, opted for a compact LD Systems MAILA line array system to optimise the sound for the wide variety of events at the Centro Cultural Vicente Aleixandre.

“We have been working for Centro Cultural Vicente Aleixandre for many years and were aware of the weaknesses of the old sound system,” explains Isaac Sanchez, Manager at Sonido Martin. “In addition to the sound quality, the coverage in the hall was also a deciding factor.” Due to the dimensions, it was important to find a system that was as compact and visually discreet as possible, while also able to cover the room evenly, without a sharp drop in level, right to the very back rows. “MAILA perfectly fulfils our requirements for a modern sound system.”

The flown MAILA system consists of two arrays, each with three MAILA SAT array satellite loudspeakers and a MAILA SPA amplifier module, which are attached using a MAILA EasyMount+ mounting adapter for flown MAILA setups. A MAIL SUB 2 x 15″ active bandpass PA subwoofer embedded in the stage cover provides low-frequency support on the floor. To precisely align the array satellites with the audience area and achieve the desired even coverage, the Sonido Martin team used the simulation functions of the MAILA app. The calculation produced an angulation for the individual MAILA SAT modules of 0°, -6° and -8°, which the technicians adjusted by hand using the innovative, patented EasySplay® mechanism.

In addition to the MAILA line array system, Sonido Martin supplemented the LD Systems setup at Centro Cultural Vicente Aleixandre with four MON G3 12A active stage monitors.
