New VSI installation at Castle Leisure

Supplier: Vaughan Sound Installations

More Vaughan Sound Installations details
Vaughan Sound Installations (VSI) - part of the PAI Group - has completed an integrated sound, lighting and AV installation at Castle Leisure in Nantgarw.

The latest new build venue of the Castle Bingo brand, it saw VSI teaming up with lighting specialists i-Vision and Cardiff-based HLN Architects.

One corner of the building features the double storey Tower Hospitality suites and on the next is the reception area, both corners being constructed from glass blocks.

Following on from the success of the concept at Castle's Bridgend site, the exterior walls of these two areas have been lit by i-Vision's colour changing Lumos LED strips.

Inside the reception area, illumination is - uniquely - entirely provided by different colour temperature white LED fixtures installed for task lighting and to create a comfortable working environment.

The entrance doors are lit with custom made white Lumos 1200 strips installed alongside the air curtain.

Elsewhere in the building, LED strips have been used to highlight the AWP (Amusements With Prizes) or gaming machine areas and also to highlight the raised VIP areas within the club. The AWP areas were tricky to light and an inverted bulkhead was created, lit with multiple Lumos LINK fixtures.

That same principal is carried through to the raised ceiling over the VIP area in the main room. The main auditorium walkways and stage are denoted by slightly dropped ceilings and lit with Lumos 3 recessed down-lighters.

For the main stage, HLN and PAI came up with a 30m wide chevron style design in two halves, installed either side of the central LED video screen. This has been built from 64 Marveon LED tubes of various lengths. Control is by an AR12, giving 12 touch-panel controlled pages of inbuilt scenes and chases that can be operated by the staff running the games.

To handle the audio side of things, VSI specified a distributed sound system for both the main auditorium and various rooms. This consisted of over 60 Australian Monitor full range ceiling speakers covering all areas, controlled by a TOA D901 digital mixer and powered by AMIS power amplifiers.

In addition to the main caller's microphone, the company supplied four TOA UHF radio microphones and provided inputs for the various links for national bingo.

VSI also supplied six 40in Mitsubishi LCD monitors for displaying the game information around the perimeter of the club. These are connected to the main matrix screen for the bingo input plus displaying corporate advertising and video images all controlled from the main console by the caller.

The company additionally provided the club's fire alarm, CCTV and induction loop systems.
