"Helping You Sound Your Best" |

First Christian Church Champaign, Illinois back to:
OASIS Youth Ministry Center This 200 seat youth center is difficult to explain due to the unique nature of the space. Todd Weger of Weger + Associates Architects worked with the youth minister to develop a space for worship, learning, community and caring that is very much teen oriented.
The globe in the middle of the floor is where seating will be placed for staged events. The platform is modular and can be configured for many different variations. The dual input/output panels on the rear wall allow for any type of musical programming.
The amplifier rack mounted below the east stair to the mezzanine level complements the industrial appearance of the space.
The matched sub woofers are mobile and designed to remain out in the open. They do require two people to move them, but that won't happen too often.
The overhead speaker, which are not visible due to the negative space ceiling system are Concert Systems LLC model 102-63 boxes with LDAC venting. Each box contains two-12" woofers and a 2" throat compression driver on a 90 x 40 degree bi-radial horn.
Some new and some existing floor monitors are available for the musicians on the platform. The model matches as closely as possible the floor monitors used in the gym-a-torium.
Most parts of the system have similarities to the gym-a-torium system. This is to maximize servicing, learning, and operation of both systems. The system processing and amplifier are identical. The console is similar (Soundcraft LX7-24ii) but with fewer inputs, auxilliary mixes, sub groups and eq features.
The pictures were taken on the day that the system was commissioned. A lot of dust was still in the air and the building had not yet been turned over to the church for occupancy. Better shots will be made available after all the dust settles.
