Located in the heart of the city, Jakarta’s new Sands International Executive Club is a luxurious multi-entertainment ‘mega club’ comprising a restaurant, live theatre, discotheque, wine bar, chill-out bar, and spa centre, all fitted with Allen & Heath mixing products.
Encompassing three floors – with plans for expansion – Sands is classically designed with high ceilings, gilded walls, marble floors, plush carpeting, and crystal chandeliers. The owners appointed Singapore’s Electro-Systems Industries to design and install the sound reinforcement systems, in partnership with project co-ordinator, Peter Loh Productions, catering for the complex AV requirements of the venue.
The Grand Ballroom and Dining Theatre make up the largest live performance area in the club, divided by a partition wall to enable the venue to host independent functions or combine and expand the rooms for bigger functions. The spectacular multi-tiered stage is large enough to sit a full orchestra ensemble, hosting divas and dance companies every night.

The main control room is situated at a separate level where the AV crew has a panoramic view of the stage. Sound for the live entertainment is managed via the 32-channel Allen & Heath ML4000 VCA console for FOH, with an Allen & Heath WZ16:2DX mixer on monitors. Also housed in the control room is the Allen & Heath iDR-8 digital mix processor, installed to manage distribution to the multiple audio zones around the venue and the signal processing gear.
The Ballroom and Theatre rooms are fitted with Sonance ceiling speakers, while live entertainment sound is distributed to FOH Nexo speakers, and Logic System speakers for artists’ foldback monitoring, all powered by Camco amplifiers. Lighting is controlled by an Avolites Pearl desk also installed in the control room.
