Norwest Supplies Sports Presentation Audio Systems for 15th Doha Asian Games

Norwest teamed up with local company CCG in association with AV Tech and Australian Company Bytecraft Entertainment to provide a total turnkey solution to the entire Sports Presentation Audio Visual production requirements for the 15th Asian Games Doha, Qatar.

There were a total of 39 Sports, 46 Disciplines spread over 16 precincts and 50 Venues. Norwest installed 116 Audio Systems which included, Media Press room Systems, Religious room and Meeting room Systems, entire Athletes Village Installation, 44 Sports Presentation Systems ranging from Football Stadiums to Sports and Aquatic Centre, Outdoor Marathon and Cycling Venues, Rowing and Kayaking Venue, Equestrian and Cross Country Venues as well as Spectator Services and Pedestrian Screening Systems. These systems included a wide variety of speaker systems, control and infrastructure which included Battery operated Speaker Systems with built in Cd Players and Radio Microphones, Full range 100V line Systems, a variety of Self powered and Unpowered Speakers, Concert Speaker Systems, Portable and Mobile Systems and of course a gaggle of 100v Line Horns.

The majority of amplification was taken care of by Lab Gruppen amplifiers primarily fp6400 and C68-4’s. Their amazing sound quality, power handling, auto detecting circuitry and reliability made it a very easy choice given the incredibly harsh environments they were subjected to.

All sports Presentation Mixing Control was done using Yamaha O1V96 Digital Mixing Consoles using MY8DA output cards to give a total of 14 individual mix Outputs.With all onboard processing, routing and a very intuitive mixing surface we found these consoles to have all the features we required in a tiny footprint which was paramount for the event.
