A new luxury hotel complex has opened in the hill town of Castelfidardo in Italy’s Ancona region, installed with state-of-the-art AV technology based around Allen & Heath’s iDR DSP system.
“The Klass Hotel and Konvivio Restuarant is an ideal place for appointments and meetings, in an atmosphere loaded with innovation and modernity,” comments the venue’s interior architect, David Raponi, from HOV.

The new 4 star hotel has 70 hotel rooms, a large dividable conference room, a lounge bar, and the Konvivio restaurant and pizzeria. Adjacent to this complex is the original facility - established 2 years ago - containing two nightclubs, the larger of which already has an iDR system installed to manage audio distribution around the venue.
“iDR is a very flexible and stable technology, and I have managed installations in a variety of venues from conference and hotel complexes, nightclubs, shopping centres, theatres, and lecture halls,” explains Grisby Music’s audio project consultant, Luigi Locorotondo. “Satisfied with the existing iDR installation, the client appointed us to design and programme the AV system for the new hotel complex.”

The Konvivio Restaurant
An iDR-8 digital mixing processor is installed in the large conference room, which has a series of wall separators, allowing the room to be split into six parts. iDR manages sources including 3 gooseneck mics and 2 radio mics for presenters, a connection for a PC or laptop, as well as a video conference system comprising a projector, DVD recorder, and cameras. A PL-10 8-channel rotary mix controller has been installed in the conference suite to provide remote control of audio in all areas during a live situation.
