Well it’s kind of hard to explain how it works, but I’ll try.
The perfect scenario would be for everyone in the band to have their own PAS. It creates a “cylindrical wave” that is more efficient than whatever wave regular speakers make. It’s just as loud in front of it as it is 180 degrees around it and it’s almost as loud directly behind it. This is true, I’ve walked all the stage and it holds up to this claim. So if everyone had one you wouldn’t need monitors or a PA. The audience hears the same thing you do and it has enough power for a 300 seat venue. You hear everyone just as they hear themselves.
In reality I’ve never played with anyone else that had one, but it performs well with traditional amps and monitors. It has three amps built into the base of the unit, one for the top half of the cylinder, one for the bottom half and one for up to two bass modules. For the vocalist you don’t need any bass module and for basses they recommend two bass modules. You can add another amp base and power up to six (I think) bass modules for SVT bass levels. The cylinder is seven foot tall and has twenty four 2.5’’ drivers and the base unit has a hundred presets for various microphones, guitars, basses and other EQ settings. There is also a remote control with EQ and master and two channels of the 4 channels have remote level pots.
For my wind controller its absolutely the best thing I’ve ever used, the horn sections sound way defined and real, as does the cello, I love it and plan to get another for stereo.
