Vertec covers the Super Bowl

A full JBL Vertec line array was provided by Burbank-based ATK/Audiotek for the Rolling Stones’ performance at the Sprint-sponsored Super Bowl XL halftime show, broadcast live from Detroit’s Ford Field last Sunday. Stringent constraints in both time and space made the installation all the more challenging.
The three-song performance was mixed by veteran FOH engineer Dave Natale, using JBL’s Vertec VT4889 line array system. ATK/Audiotek provided a 38-person crew for the 12-minute production, which was viewed by an estimated 100 million people. The crew, along with more than 50 volunteers, had just five minutes to move the system into position and connect it.
