Working closely with the architects of Rangitoto College’s Dance Studio, Halogen Audio Limited illustrated their anticipation for future development and ensured that audio quality was not compromised whilst striving for the best aesthetic feel within the rooms.
RANGITOTO COLLEGE is New Zealand’s largest secondary school recognized for the quality of its students through their academic excellence, sporting achievements and performing arts such as dance. The highly skilled in house dance teachers provide dance students with the opportunity to participate in a variety of different dance related genres and activities, incorporating relevant theory as well as the occasional training sessions by guest dance experts.
The Dance Studio is a brand new building and celebrated its official opening on 15 February 2013 that included the formalities of cutting the ribbon, thank you speeches and delightful dance performances by students. The studio is purpose built with mirrors, a barre, sprung floors and an innovative audio system designed and installed by Halogen Audio.
Halogen Audio was involved early in the building project to prepare the wiring and cable runs, working closely with the architects to achieve the best aesthetic feel within the rooms without compromising audio quality. The building is currently divided into two rooms, a dance studio and a classroom. With Rangitoto College’s vision for the possibility of a further room division, Halogen Audio illustrated their anticipation for future development by preparing the wiring in three separate zones, each equipped with separate wall remotes. The Dance Studio has two QSC Acoustic Design S82 90×60 8” high powered speakers with wiring and brackets prepared for an additional two zones with a simple plug and play solution. Wiring and brackets for an AD sub is also installed to add a sub once the third division occurs.
Sara Tenwolde (TIC of Dance), Ashleigh Morgan (Dance and Drama Teacher) and the dance students are overjoyed with this new dance space, fully customized to their physical and audio needs.
