In the run-up to Chicago’s February 22nd elections for a new mayor and a slew of aldermen, media and publicity events abound. SimpleAV took part in some of the activity, providing services at a mayoral candidate’s forum for the Asian-American community on February 8th. In the photos below you’ll see how SimpleAV met challenges and satisfied the audio-visual requirements of the event.
Community members gave testimony from a podium mic while the four candidates responded from a table, each seated with their own microphone. To the right you can see our main and delay speakers, calibrated to ensure intelligibility at the back of the room.
Our Allen & Heath Mixer and modest dynamics rack helped SimpleAV control levels and provide audio feeds for camera crews.
CanTV and ABC News used audio feeds routed from the SimpleAV console.
SimpleAV set up two 7.5' by 10' screens for projection of simultaneous translations into two languages.
