This 4,000+ seat stadium is an exceptional facility. The field is suited for combined use of football, soccer and track & field. The site is located adjacent to residential areas and across the Susquehanna River from Vestal Stadium, which often runs concurrent games. The audio system required controlled coverage, high fidelity audio for music, speech, field announcing and special events. The system design required high sound pressure to the stands, with minimal bleed to adjacent areas. The control system is DSP-based with broadcast interfaces for press, headsets and head mics for announcers, and preset configuration changes for types of events. There are presets for all of the different settings and modes. The sound booth itself has direct control over music quality for audio and for speech. There are also direct feeds from the system for the media. Since the stadium is open to the weather, AVL’s design included a unique characteristic for use In the winter: a low-level pink noise signal that runs through the system to keep the voice coils from freezing. Sound web controllers continuously keep this signal running, which allows the system to be turned on without damaging any speakers even in very cold weather.
