Lakeshore Community Church

Lakeshore Community is a non denominational church that wanted to upgrade the quality of their In sanctuary systems to accommodate a higher level of technical presentation. AVL was contracted over a period of years to provide design for various upgrades. The first was correction of the room acoustics. Due to its shape, the sanctuary had significant sound energy reflecting back into the seating area negatively affecting listeners. A budget-conscious design using wall mounted absorbers and diffusors in a binary layout were used to control the percentages of energy required to control these reflections. Panels of varying types were used to tune the room reverberation to a flatter overall response, removing midrange peaks. The next project was a replacement sound system. Main speakers, DSP, console, and stage monitoring were all replaced in a renovation that moved the worship department into new territory. In ear monitoring added to overall audio control, and the resulting audio quality into the seating area was dramatically improved. The next project was a lighting upgrade. The original system was all incandescent with poor lighting locations and no color or other interest. AVL designed a new rigid lighting grid incorporating color changing LED technology as well a new quartz lighting. The system provides dramatic backdrops for worship and preaching. The final upgrade was new video projection and controls. A three projector system with independent switching and mixing of video images for each screen was implemented.
