Fibre network beams live coverage of the X Games in the Alps

X Games 2013

The event was co-produced by Canal+ Events and GB4D provided virtually all the audio equipment for the competition zones, to assist A+ Events. This included the control tower audio boards and FOH equipment, the fibre network, PA, cabling and event video distribution.

Audio transmission was based around two Optocore loops – one ring for the Super Pipe competition area, another for the VIP area, and a second for the Slope Style competition area. The entire Optocore system was controlled from a desktop PC.  L’Acoustics LA8 and Lab Gruppen PLM10000Q amplifiers fed the main PA hangs and Super Pipe’s deck fills were remote controlled via Optocore’s LAN.
