L&SI Online News reports that Hard Rock Park, billed as the world's first rock 'n' roll theme park,
is "a multifaceted musical experience that brings to life the iconic
music that changed the course of music history and continues to
influence generations of music fans".
Located in the Atlantic Coast resort town of Myrtle Beach (South
Carolina, USA), this $400 million music fan's dream boasts themed rock
'n' rollercoasters like LED ZEPPELIN: The Ride and EAGLES: Life in the
Fast Lane among its 50 rides and attractions, and dedicates entire
sections of the park to pop-music movements such as the British
Invasion, '70s era rock and even country music.
Peavey worked closely with Hard Rock Park and systems integrator
Electrosonic to create an unparalleled music experience. As the first
new major attraction built in the US in nearly a decade, Hard Rock Park
benefits from the evolution of technology manifested in the Peavey
MediaMatrix NION audio distribution system, the ribbon-loaded Peavey
Versarray line array and the Crest Audio Pro 200 Series power
amplifiers.
The largest segment of the Hard Rock Park project is the
background music and paging system, which consists of a cadre of nine
MediaMatrix NION n3 processors that configure and control more than 130
zones of audio covering the entire 55-acre park. MediaMatrix CAB 4n
CobraNet break-out boxes convert the uncompressed digital CobraNet
audio to analogue audio and distribute it to nearly 1,000 Peavey PR
Series and Impulse Series loudspeakers that are mounted on poles
throughout the resort and weatherized for permanent outdoor
installation in South Carolina's humid climate.
