Northfield, Ohio
(October 10th, 2008) - Stage
Research�s SFX 6, world
leader in live entertainment
music/sound playback, has
now seized the public
exhibition venue market.
The 22-country
tolerance-awareness project
Dialog in the Dark will be
opening this coming November
in Kansas City, and SFX 6
will tie-and-trigger the
sense-awakening exhibit.
Blind or visually
impaired guides, whom
visitors will never get to
see, will be leading them
through typical segments of
life in complete darkness.
The Dialog in the Dark
22-country series, created
(and now headed) by a
concerned German
journalist/commentator,
utilizes scents, wind,
temperatures, sound and
textures to construct park-,
town- or bar-like
environments in order to
provide perceptual
orientation within a world
encompassing the remaining
four senses.
As one�s sense of
hearing is sharpened by
walking through this
exhibit, and observers
experience the sounds of
rustling waterfalls and
bustling communities, SFX 6
will cue and orchestrate
what may well be the most
impactful, important,
meaningful and memorable
exhibit to grace Union
Station Kansas City�s Bank
of America Grand Gallery.
Stage Research�s
Carlton Guc, sound designer
for the project, reflects:
�SFX 6 software has allowed
me to sculpt an in-depth,
multi-layered portrait of a
world unseen. I can count
on its rugged reliability
again and again.�
Because SFX frees the
user from limitation-related
technological concerns, he
or she can design and
execute rich soundscapes
effortlessly. Features
include the ASIO playback
engine supporting 16-bit or
better WAV, MP3 or WMA audio
files, audio cues that
contain mono, stereo or more
channels, and cues that
output to a true matrix (any
number of inputs to any
number of outputs). SFX 6
also enables one to
drag-and-drop multiple sound
files to create a
multi-channel, synchronized
audio cue from existing mono
and stereo sound files.
�We�re really proud of
SFX 6 in helping us see our
efforts through to
completion on the Dialog in
the Dark project,� says Guc.
�And many thanks to Premier
Exhibitions, Atlanta, for
enlisting us to lend our
support for the
installation.� |
