ETC: Eos Titanium Tests Its Mettle on Zorro
Zorro: A New Musical has claimed a lot of firsts for ETC’s Eos family of lighting control products. It was the first London West End musical controlled by an Eos desk. It was the first large-scale show in Paris run on an Eos. And now it is the first theatrical production in America to feature ETC’s newest lighting control desk, Eos Titanium (“Ti”).
The debut of Ti coincided with the preproduction of Zorro at the Alliance Theatre in Atlanta, Georgia. Ti was used to accomplish all programming for the show, running as a client in the theater’s in-house Eos system.

Meyer Sound: Sound System Helps Center Vary Performance Spaces
When planning its new performing arts center, the Mansfield, Texas Independent school district faced a dilemma. Though it was determined that both a large auditorium and a smaller performance hall would be ideal for its range of events, the budget could not justify building and maintaining multiple spaces. A solution was soon found in the multi-use Cunningham Performance Hall of the Mansfield ISD Center for the Performing Arts, which uses a Meyer Sound Constellation acoustic system to provide the ideal acoustics for its varying room configurations and programs.
