11.08 & 11.09.23 - Appraiser Association of America Annual Conference at The New York Athletic Club

 Moore PA Hire returned to the New York Athletic Club to provide audio, lighting, and video equipment and services for the Appraiser Association of America's Annual Conference.  Let's get into it.

For audio, we started with (1) Yamaha QL5 and (1) Yamaha RIO 1608D. On stage, we laid out (8) Shure MX418C podium-style microphones, with (1) Shure ULXD4Q back at control to provide (4) channels of wireless mics.  For speakers, we provided (8) L'Acoustics X8.  

The 9th floor lounge was packed from start to finish, so with this in mind we loaded in (2) VMX 2.6 10ft x 6ft LED walls, suspended from a Genie ST20 crank up stand. Additionally, we provided (3) 82" TVs for additional coverage of the event and content.  

The conference had guests in-person and remote attendees and speakers.  With that in mind, we rolled in with our premier livestream and recording production rack - the LSE-1. The rack consists of (1) vMix Pro server, (1) Blackmagic Design 12x12 Cleanswitch, (1) Netgear M4250 switch for high-bandwidth connectivity, and a fully managed Ubiquti networking setup. Tied into this were (4) Birddog P4K ptz cameras discreetly spread around the space to capture the presenters at the podium as well as any questions from the in-person audience. With the in-room audience taken care of, we could turn our attention to our remote audience and contributors. We prepared a full hybrid workflow which saw remote contributors joining their fellow in-person panelists with the ability to present and discuss freely, as well as advance and share their own content as needed. Finally, the full program was cut inside vMix Pro and streamed out to the client's Youtube channel.

For lighting, we supplied (2) ETC Lustr S2 to set the stage for this multi-day conference.  

On the 10th floor, we prepared (3) breakout rooms. These were also all livestreamed to the client's Youtube Channel. Each room consisted of (2) Shure MX418C podium-style microphones, (1) 82inch TV, (1) Birddog P4K ptz cameras, (1) vMix Pro server, (1) Mackie DL1608 audio mixer, and (2) L'Acoustics 108p. The key to this event was to have all rooms independent and at the ready at all times. As the audience migrated around NYAC over the course of two days, wherever they arrived we were ready to capture and broadcast within a few moments.
