About this Event

Portable System Deployment (PSD) – 2 Days*

November 11 - 12
9:30AM - 5:30PM

This training provides the essentials that today's users need for enhanced deployment of Meyer Sound portable live-sound systems, regardless of system size or application, including a basic understanding of networked audio.

Attendees acquire a working knowledge of the entire process, from initial system design to final verification, and everything in between. All topics are taught and demonstrated in practice — complete with loudspeakers as well as rigging hardware — with emphasis on Meyer Sound’s “precision toolset”. A suite of tools that support and streamline the entire workflow from design to deployment, verification, calibration, and system-health monitoring. Tools include MAPP 3D System Design Tool, Galileo GALAXY Network Platform, Compass Control Software, Compass Go, Low-Mid Beam Control, RMServer, Nebra Connectivity & Monitoring Tool, as well as AVB MILAN networking, and FFT‑based transfer‑function analyzers.

Though this course focuses on live sound, the content is suitable for anyone involved in deploying sound systems, either portable or installed. Whether you are an aspiring student, or a seasoned professional with decades of experience, equip yourself with the tools and techniques to take your ideal sound system from concept to reality.

PSD is eligible for 13 AVIXA CTS, CTS-D, CTS-I RU.



Low Frequency Control (LFC) – 1 Day*

November 13
9:30AM - 5:30PM

Fusing classroom theory with practical exercises, this one-day course addresses a range of considerations when working with the Meyer Sound LFC subwoofer product line. Topics include verification procedures, cardioid and array configurations, effective cancellation techniques, main-to-LF scaling and alignment, and approaches to combining different subwoofer configurations within a single system.

This course is offered in select instances, as a supplement to Portable System Deployment and System Design & Optimization. Attendees should complete either course prior to taking Low Frequency Control, the content of which is intended for experienced audio technicians.

LFC is eligible for 6.5 AVIXA CTS, CTS-D, CTS-I RU.

The registration fee includes training materials, AVIXA CTS RU, Eventbrite fees, morning coffee + pastries, and an optional Meyer Sound Factory tour on Friday, November 14th 9:30am-11:30am.
