We've officially got a fleet!  The summer of 2010 has brought several vehicle additions to our capabilities.  We've added q motorhome, a commercial bontail truck, and trailers!  Smashwolf Productions can get the whole job done with convenient one stop shopping.  No need to pick up or drop off, we'll deliver the whole show to your event's venue, and we'll even pick up other equipment, and resources for your event as well.  We'll be offering complete event logistics services!

The image to the left is the Califur VI stage just before we finished setting it up.  In our gallery, you'll find several more images of the set-up.  As soon as we get actual event images we'll post them.  The event was exciting.  We were sharing the hotel with KROQ, and KROQ was using this as their host hotel for their annual KROQ Weenie Roast.  Stone Temple Pilots tried to crash our party, and supposedly Smashmouth, and other bands were in the hotel, even Devo.  The two unlikely to be compatible events seemed to not only get along well, there was a lot of "cross polilnation" between events.  Even the KROQ manager said she wanted to pre-register for Califur VII.  We were brought down to facilitate the stage for one specific performance, and Califur was able to benefit from it's use all weekend.   Hopefully next year Califur will have us back again in a similar capacity or even  an expanded capacity as well.

Friday, and Saturday nights the dance allowed us to open up the floodgates of the  Crown and JBL PA quite a bit.  Perhaps this is why STP  wanted into the party.  We coarsely measured the room at well over 100db.  As someone pointed out with this URL's chart, it was getting up there!  It was still comfortable, clear, and un-distorted with plenty of headroom left.  We never actually were able to turn it up even close to redline, but the system has proven to have considerable "bandwidth".  We'll likely need a large outdoor venue to really push this safely.  Perhaps an outdoor concert or street fair is on order! 

To the right is a custom system control I was working on between performances.  I later added more controls , and indicators.  This was a great place to demo the total control of the Crown iTech DSP.  Literally any control light, meter, indicator, slider or knob that is controlled by software can be presented in a custom control surface.  This really lends itself well to the pictured laptop, because it's touch screen. 

Smashwolf Productions will be showcasing our audio systems at CalifurV in Ircine, California, this weekend.  Come see our 24KW Crown iTech, and JBL SRX 700 system in action all weekend at the Ivine Marriott Hotel, 1800 Van Karmen Ave, irvine, Ca, 92612.  You can visit the Califur VI Web site for more event information. 

Bryan "Smash" Manternach will be DJing Saturday night after the Cabaret show using the new Tascam X9 DJ coffin set up with our Pioneer CDJ1000MK2 decks.  Click "Read More" to find out what else is going on.

Crown's iTech seris of amplifiers are amazing!  We use them for just about everything.  Pictured here are our two primary touring racks.  Gone are the days of outboard DSP's and signal processsing.  The iTech's powerful on-board DSP and iQuic software allow us to manage complete signal control at the amplifier, and do it remotely from a touch screen PC or tablet.  We can even work on it live while the system is running and save show configurations for recall later.   The software allows us to create custom control surfaces for the specific needs of any event , show, or installation.
