Powersoft and Verso Gateway stun patrons at Bellandur SOCIAL in Bangalore with their cutting-edge
installations
Bellandur SOCIAL, Bangalore's latest entertainment venue, has enhanced its audio experience
with
Powersoft's advanced audio solutions, creating a dynamic, multi-zone sound system tailored
for
various events, from daytime dining to nighttime entertainment. The venue, housed within an oval
glass dome, required a robust audio setup to cater to diverse areas, including a DJ section, VIP
lounge, and outdoor balconies. This installation marks the 54th SOCIAL outlet by Impresario
Hospitality Pvt. Ltd., led by Riyaaz Amlani, designed to immerse visitors in a
"garden city"
ambiance.
The installation, led by audio consultant Utkarsh Naidu from Techflow, features
Powersoft's Mezzo,
Duecanali, and Quattrocanali amplifiers, as well as the innovative Verso gateway device, all of
which are monitored through the MyUniverso cloud platform. According to Naidu, these
amplifiers'
compact design, high performance, and Dynamic Music Distribution capabilities made them ideal for
delivering consistent audio across the venue's multi-zone layout. "Powersoft was the ideal choice
for this installation; the amplifiers' versatility and high-performance capabilities perfectly
matched the project's diverse requirements, from space constraints to acoustic consistency," Naidu
explained.
A range of Powersoft amplifiers was utilized, including four Quattrocanali 1204 DSP+D, two
Quattrocanali 4804 DSP+D, one Duecanali 4804 DSP+D, one Duecanali 804 DSP+D, and four Mezzo
604 AD
amplifiers. These were complemented by three WM Touch touchscreens, controlled remotely through the
Verso gateway device, which connects the amplifiers to the MyUniverso cloud platform for seamless
monitoring and adjustments. "The remote management capability streamlined our operations, saving
time and reducing the need for on-site visits," noted Naidu.
Naidu highlighted the unique acoustic challenges of the venue's dome-shaped design, which
Powersoft's digital signal processing effectively managed to maintain clear audio quality across all
zones. "It was crucial to ensure consistent sound quality and distribution throughout the space, and
Powersoft played a key role in maintaining clear audio across all zones, catering to both dining and
nightlife settings," he said.
The equipment includes 20 DAS Audio ARTEC-306 and five ACTION-508 loudspeakers, two
Q-10 and nine
ARTEC-S15 subwoofers, four RCF NXL-44-44-4 loudspeakers, and two RCF 8008 subwoofers.
Techflow
utilised a Dante AVIO 2 input adapter for efficient audio routing, while Netgear AV
line switches
ensured reliable connectivity.
Naidu also emphasized the future-proof nature of Powersoft's solutions, allowing for potential
system upgrades as the venue evolves. "The modularity of Powersoft means expansion and upgrades can
be easily managed. Whether it's adding more zones, integrating newer audio technologies, or scaling
the system to accommodate larger events, the infrastructure is already in place for seamless
adaptation," Naidu stated.
Feedback on the sound system has been positive, with staff and guests alike noting the system's
quality and ambiance. Naidu concluded, "The sound system has exceeded expectations, with
high-quality audio creating the perfect ambiance for both daytime dining and nighttime events."
