When the Burnt Hills Ballston Lake High School made the decision to renovate their auditorium, the architect requested that AVL Designs Inc. join their team. First, it was determined that the auditorium would have to be entirely gutted. The space would become a “black box” style space with the addition of a balcony plus wrap-around catwalks with lighting positions. Room acoustics: there would be no ceiling and electronic acoustic systems were to be added. In order for electronic acoustics to succeed, there must be very low noise in the space. We were contracted to do ductwork noise modeling. The final system is SO QUIET that it is inaudible. Audio systems include an Allen & Heath Avantis Console, Danley Loudspeakers, Ashly Audio DSP and amplification, and Shure QLX D wireless systems. Video includes projection as well as LCD screens with controls by Crestron and Blackmagic Design, Robotic Cameras by Panasonic. Lighting is based predominantly on product from Electronic Theater Controls, Hi End Systems, and Strand Lighting. The electronic acoustics system is based on Yamaha AFC. Covid product delays have forced AVL to assist in coming up with workarounds as some products will only arrive 6 months or more after the facility starts being used. Such is life these days, but workarounds are getting the job done.
