We recently spent two days diving deeper into NEXO and Yamaha Professional Audio with some great hands-on training at MFI.

Bertrand Billon from NEXO flew in from France to spend the training with our team, joined by Charles Rehill from Yamaha Commercial Audio & NEXO. The sessions covered everything from system design and software to hands-on setup, rigging, troubleshooting, and getting more familiar with the tools and technology behind the systems we use for both live production and permanent installations.

It was a great opportunity for our team to spend some dedicated time with the people behind the products, ask plenty of questions, and keep expanding our knowledge of the NEXO ecosystem.

Going a little cosmic for Elliot Hospital’s Celestial Soiree.

Lots of movers in the air and around the room helped bring the space theme to life and give the gala a completely different look once the lights came on.

AV work is underway for the Amherst Public Library renovation.

This phase includes building and testing the AV rack, installing speakers, and getting displays ready for the basement space. It’s always nice seeing the system start to come together piece by piece.

Another Combat Zone MMA in the books at SNHU Arena.

From building truss and getting the production rig in place to the energy of fight night, here’s a look at both sides of the show: the setup before doors and the finished event once everything came together.

Here’s a quick timelapse from our setup for An Evening with Seth Meyers at SNHU Arena last week. It’s always fun to see the venue come together piece by piece before the audience walks in.

We’ve recently added new moving lights to our rental inventory: 16 Chauvet Rogue R2E Spots and 16 Chauvet Rogue R2X Washes.

The R2E Spots give us beams, gobos, aerial looks, and texture, while the R2X Washes provide wide color washes, smooth RGBW color mixing, fast movement, and a generous zoom range.

Together, they give us a flexible lighting package for live events, worship services, arena productions, and more.

We’ve recently added a dedicated real-time De-Feedback processing rack to our production inventory.

Built around ALPHA LABS's De-Feedback, this rack is designed for difficult live audio environments where traditional system tuning and EQ can only go so far — reverberant rooms, difficult microphone placement, wireless presenters moving too close to loudspeakers, and other challenging live production situations.

In early deployments, we’ve already seen it make a noticeable difference on graduations, arena events, town meetings, and livestream mixes. At Plymouth State University graduation ceremonies, we were able to achieve roughly 20 dB more usable gain within the signal chain on choir and podium microphones while also reducing the hollow, reverberant character of the room in the livestream mix.

It is not a replacement for proper system design, tuning, or microphone technique, but it gives us another tool to help keep speech clear and events running smoothly in difficult spaces.

Built around Alpha Lab Studio De-Feedback, this rack is intended for situations where traditional system tuning and EQ can only go so far — reverberant rooms, difficult microphone placement, wireless presenters moving too close to loudspeakers, and other challenging live environments.
