Sound systems and sound design

Since our beginnings, we have closely collaborated with the Canadian brand of professional loudspeakers, Adamson Systems Engineering, which ranks among the world’s top rider-compliant manufacturers of touring systems. We are now entering a new era together with the revolutionary VERGENCE GROUP technology. 

As one of the first in the world, we are applying Adamson VGt for large concerts and tours. This state-of-the-art large-format line array speaker is the first member of the Vergence Group. It features 8 transducers, an integrated Class-D amplifier, networked DSP, and an Autolock rigging system in a lightweight and compact design.

We standardly operate a 15-inch line array system with CoLinear module technology and modern Autolock Rigging, the ADAMSON ENERGIA E15 (48). When combined with the most efficient subwoofers in its class, the E219, this system is arguably the most powerful line-array system on the Czech and potentially even European market. This system was used for the stadium concert of Kryštof in 2017, which hosted 40,000 attendees, as well as for all of our productions in the O2 arena.

In addition to this high-capacity system, we utilize a smaller 12-inch version, the ADAMSON ENERGIA E12 (24), and the compact S10 (48) system. All systems are powered by LABGRUPPEN PLM amplifiers with integrated LAKE processing, operated and controlled using the DANTE protocol.

Thanks to our extensive portfolio, we can provide sound reinforcement for the largest domestic venues, including the O2 arena and open-air festivals, delivering the highest quality sound with perfect coverage. Each project receives a tailored preparation process, with detailed sound design created through the certified Blueprint software. Final calibration and system setup are managed by certified sound engineers using SMAART measurement tools.

Since a perfect system with perfect processing and amplifiers would not be complete without top-tier FOH consoles, we have invested in the best available: DIGICO QUANTUM 338 (with Waves Card, Waves Extreme Server, and Super Rack license) and Yamaha PM7 Rivage. Additionally, for FOH and MON purposes, we utilize other Yamaha digital consoles (CL5, M7CL48-ES, QL1, DM3) and various other digital mixers.

Apart from these core elements, we provide standard accessories, including microphones (DPA, Shure Axient, Audix, Sennheiser), monitors (32x Adamson M15, 8x Adamson M12, and the new M10, 20x PSM1000 in-ear monitors), and DJ equipment from Pioneer.

The ADAMSON system is used by world-class artists such as Imagine Dragons, Enrique Iglesias, David Guetta, One Direction, Ricky Martin, Beyoncé, and is part of the portfolio of major European companies like PRG, Clair, or Audiolite. On the domestic scene, our sound systems are long-term favorites of bands like Kryštof and Dymytry, as well as festivals such as Český Majáles, SázavaFest, Trnkobraní, České Hrady, Metronome, and many other projects. Our comprehensive service has featured the system on the European tour of Manowar and concerts by Enrique Iglesias or DJ Bobo.

lights, video and design

From our selection of professional lighting and special effects, we are happy to create an original setup for your project. Our equipment is suitable for tours, festivals, concerts, and events, ranging from small clubs to large arenas, as well as for decorative lighting of spaces or TV recordings and broadcasts.

We exclusively use products from the Czech brand ROBE, one of the world's largest manufacturers of rider-compliant equipment. This brand is complemented by specialized equipment from ASTERA, ARRI, SGM, and many others. We ensure the quality and reliability of additional devices such as distribution boards, splitters, dimmers, power distribution, and DMX connections. For control, we use CHAMSYS consoles (MQ70, MQ100, MQ250, and MQ500 Stadium M with various wing options) or GRAND MA2 (full size) desks.

 

In our lighting inventory, we offer state-of-the-art equipment, including the latest ROBE iFORTE technology, including the LTX version (32), the most powerful discharge lights ROBE BMFL (42) and BMFL WASHBEAM (12), the current favorite among LED washes, ROBE SPIIDER (64), and the popular ROBE MEGAPOINTE (36). We also feature four follow spot systems, ROBOSPOT. This is complemented by effect lights such as COLORSTROBE (24) or TETRA2 (32) and specialties from other brands like TITAN TUBE or KINESYS, including moving lights with interchangeable designs like the Kinetic Ring.

VIDEO
We provide 300 m² of outdoor LED screens with a 6 mm resolution, 150 m² of semi-outdoor LED screens with a 3.9 mm resolution, and, most recently, 600 m² of LED FRAME with high resolution and great brightness. These screens can be assembled into various shapes and divided into multiple surfaces. For LED screens, we offer complete production and, if needed, a BlackMagic Ursa camera system, both standard and robotic. For playback, we use our own media servers, ZL BRUTAL FORCE I and II.

For programming events and shows, we offer our own ZLFAMILY SHOW DESIGN STUDIO, fully equipped with all the necessary facilities:

ground support, roofs

The backbone of our GS equipment consists of HEAVY-DUTY & SUPER-BEAM trussing, which now provides us with one of the largest and safest systems in the Czech Republic. The basic roofing dimension offers up to 13 meters leg height GS and a covered area from 10 m x 12 m up to 22 m x 16 m with multi-ton load capacity. Additionally, the system can be extended with PA and video wings up to a visible width of 45 meters.

For anchoring and securing, we use only dedicated elements, such as steel ropes and chains. For each roofing variant, we have a valid static assessment and possess a complete NivTec flexibel stage system. A significant benefit of our structure is the speed of installation and dismantling, which is several days shorter compared to other systems in the Czech Republic, leading to significant production savings.

For smaller outdoor events, we own roofing with original ALUR SOLUTIONS structures and connecting parts measuring 13 m x 10 m and tower heights of 9 meters. This roofing meets EU requirements for temporary structures and is equipped with all necessary securing and anchoring. It is possible to connect prep areas of 6 x 4 m and PA wings to the roofing, increasing the possible load capacity of the sound system.

Our experienced rigging team is ready to handle events in halls with suspension. We have detailed knowledge, experience, and DWG drawings of most domestic halls with this option, whether it's Fórum Karlín, O2 arena, Enteria arena, Brno's Rondo hall, and others. Our technicians will prepare a rigging plot, including detailed dimensions, load of individual points, and statics, ensuring smooth and above all safe installation. In indoor spaces without suspension options, we build ground support of various sizes and types from our material.

For smaller constructions (approximately 12x12 m), we use standard quadro profiles, while for larger structures, we use stronger profiles such as Folding or HD trussing or Super Beam in silver and black. All components are certified by reputable manufacturers and meet EU safety requirements. For lifting, we use CHAINMASTER or CM motors with a load capacity of 1-2 tons and an original control system with D8+ safety.
