We noticed the sound has improved in the gym in recent years. What is different?
The gym is inherently a difficult room for good sound. The 2001 planning committee put this issue at the top of the priority list for improvement. As a result, we have tripled our sound budget and hired a professional sound company to help set up and run the equipment in the gym. We also created sound baffling and changed the way the speakers were set up. With these changes, we have noticed much better sound quality. We continue to work with the professional-grade sound equipment and have professional help with the gym sound setup. In addition to the pros, we also have a great crew of dance-expert sound techs who run the systems. They often know more than the pros do about the subtleties of what the dancers need and where the problems may arise. So we’re going for a judicious combination of skill sets that will make it possible for us to hear the great performers we’ve brought together.
