As a fundraiser for the Thurgood Marshall School music program in San Francisco, The Beatles tribute band Glimr staged a private concert and video shoot at Candlestick Park in San Francisco, California. The venue is where The Beatles held their final concert in 1969, and is slated for demolition.

Staging, sound and video production was provided by the Tracy, California-based Trinity Productions. According to Trinity owner John Moore, the RCF TTL11-A active column array was chosen for the event, “due to its low sight lines and compact high output capability.”

The system was comprised of the TTL11-A active cabinets, a steerable column-style active array with four 8-inch low-frequency woofers, three 8-inch midrange, and four 2.5-inch high-frequency drivers; mounted atop a TTS26-A dual 15-inch subwoofer. RCF NX12-SMA stage monitors were also used for the event.

“The system performed flawlessly,” says Moore. “It filled the stadium with more sound output than anyone thought the system was capable of.”

Moore noted the event was produced without issues, even though power had to be run over 300-feet to the power distro. He points out, “the nature of the SMPS power supplies in the TTL11-A and TTS26-A active cabinets allowed Trinity to drive the system, without worry of power drops or voltage issues. It performed as expected, and beyond.

“Everyone, including the band, was blown away by the output and quality of the system and stage monitors.”

Trinity Productions provides sound, staging and lighting in the greater San Francisco area. “We were formed out of necessity,” says Moore. “Finding a local, value-minded production company was a challenge,” with challenge being the key word, as Moore works best with the challenges of providing quality sound in harsh environments and difficult acoustic environments. “We love music, we have a passion for excellence, we work best with challenges, and we enjoy making others look and sound like the professionals they are.
