Saddleback Church Chooses Pro Co Momentum System
Lake Forest, California – Wally Grant, Director of Audio for Saddleback Church has just finished a major installation, integrating the Pro Co Momentum system as the backbone for audio distribution throughout the church campus.
Pro Co’s Momentum system is quickly becoming the digital audio distribution system of choice due to its leadership in high quality transmission of up to 256 channels of low latency, 96 kHz digital audio on a single CAT6 cable.
“When I first began my research of digital systems, the Momentum system quickly rose to the top because of a number of factors” explains Mr. Grant. “First of all, it was imperative that the system integrated extremely high channel provision as we currently require 96 channels from the stage to the studio, and an additional 24 channels of I/O distributed between the studio, FOH and video studios. With this system, we actually have room for future expansion and so far have only used about half of its potential.
More importantly however, when we bench tested another popular American made digital snake/personal monitoring product next to the Momentum system, the fact is that the Momentum simply sounded better.” Wally further stated; “Also during this test, we discovered that were gain issues with the competitor where the input did not match the output (a 6dB change) and the Momentum system had no gain changes. The audio going in, came out the other side virtually identical. Transparency is tremendously important in our recording environment. We also found the Momentum system just made more sense in the set up making the installation very simple and straight forward. These facts, plus the ability to do complete cross channel patching between I/O units, a great graphic user interface for mixing, a contractor option which allows us to pass audio from the Phoenix connector inputs passively to the DB25s as a mult-output (even in the event of a power failure) and the fact that Pro Co has a 5 year warranty made it our logical choice”.
