Set high above the cliffs of Uluwatu overlooking the Indian Ocean, Savaya has become one of the most recognisable destinations in global electronic music. The 2026 season is already stacked with open-air sunset sessions to huge headline performances 🌴

Audiotek delivered a fully integrated Audio Visual system designed to move with the energy of the venue throughout the entire day and night.

Because in a space like this, the technology can’t dominate the environment. It must become part of it.

The system combines:
🌴 K-Array
🌴 L-Acoustics subwoofers
🌴 Tannoy surround speakers
🌴 Absen LED visuals
🌴 Christie Boxer projection mapping across the venue architecture

See our case study - https://audiotek.com/portfolio/savaya/

The result is a system powerful enough for world-class artists, while still preserving the atmosphere that makes Savaya so unique. As another huge Bali season gets underway, it’s incredible seeing the venue come alive once again against one of the best backdrops in nightlife 🌅

It would be rude to start the summer season without mentioning one of the world’s oldest Super Clubs first: 🍒 Pacha Ibiza 🍒 Summer 2026 at Pacha Ibiza is officially underway.

Once again, the dancefloor is becoming one of the most visually dynamic spaces on the island.
Behind the scenes, Audiotek designed and delivered the club’s kinetic LED centrepiece. A fully motorised hexagonal structure that transforms throughout the night from immersive canopy, to moving sculpture, to high-impact video wall.

This wasn’t just about adding screens to a nightclub.

The challenge was creating an AV system that could move with the music, adapt to different artists and show formats, and integrate seamlessly into one of the most iconic venues in nightlife history. Without compromising the character of the space itself.

The final system combines:
🍒 37 custom hexagonal LED panels
🍒 DMX-controlled kinetic movement
🍒 Integrated video, lighting & motion control
🍒 Projection mapping across the venue
🍒 Real-time pixel mapping and show choreography

As Pacha’s summer calendar ramps up with another huge season of events, it’s incredible seeing the system continue to evolve night after night.

Solomun+1 returns with guests such as Idris Elba.

Some of the best venues are the worst for sound designers.

Railway arches. Warehouses. Heritage buildings. They look incredible and absolutely fight you the moment you switch the system on.

The problem? They were never designed for audio.

Hard surfaces, odd shapes, unpredictable reflections; it’s a perfect storm for poor intelligibility, dead zones, and inconsistent coverage.

And yet, this is where a lot of systems still get designed on instinct.

That’s where things go wrong.

In spaces like these, acoustic modelling isn’t a “nice to have,” it’s the difference between a system that works and one that constantly needs fixing.

By modelling the space properly, you can:
• Predict how sound will behave before installation
• Optimise speaker placement and timing
• Avoid reflections, phase issues, and coverage gaps
• Deliver consistent, immersive sound from day one

We’ve just published a full article on how we approach acoustic modelling for non-traditional venues, including an overview of Quarters Brighton, a recent project that tested our skills, but we landed a great system for them.

The article is now live on the site if you want the full breakdown.

🎶 Designing sound for performers

What audiences hear in a concert hall is a carefully blended acoustic experience; rich, immersive, and balanced. But performers experience something completely different.

Musicians rely heavily on direct sound and early reflections to stay in time, in tune, and connected with the ensemble. If on-stage acoustics aren’t designed properly, performers can struggle with timing, pitch, and confidence, even while the audience thinks everything sounds great.

Modern concert hall design has to support two acoustic experiences at once:
✔ Exceptional audience immersion
✔ Clear, reliable performer monitoring

This is achieved through a combination of:
• Precision speaker systems
• Digital time alignment
• Foldback and in-ear monitoring
• Acoustic reflectors and stage shells
• Careful system integration and tuning

Because great sound isn’t just about what the audience hears.
It’s also about what performers need to deliver their best performance.
To learn more look for “Why Do Concert Halls Sound Different to Performers vs Audiences” in the insight section of our website.

Getting sound to land evenly around a concert hall is a tricky business.
Some seats naturally sound brilliant.

Others absolutely don’t … unless the system has been designed properly.
Sound behaves differently everywhere in the room.
Front rows receive strong direct sound.
Rear seating relies more heavily on reflections.
Balconies block coverage.

And under-balcony seats?
Those can become acoustic dead zones remarkably fast. This is why getting sound to every seat in a concert hall is one of the hardest challenges in audio engineering.
It’s not about making the system louder.

It’s about controlling:
Sound projection
Timing alignment
Coverage consistency
Reflections and delay
Speaker positioning
Acoustic shadow zones

Audiences don’t care how complicated the engineering is. They just know when their seat sounds rubbish. They paid for the ticket; it’s not too much to expect to be able to keep up with the performance from their seat.

If you want to learn how to deliver sound to every seat, read our latest guide “How Do You Get Sound to Every Seat in a Concert Hall?” available now on our website.

Why do some concert halls leave audiences completely immersed … while others sound flat, harsh, or strangely disconnected?

It rarely comes down to the performers. It’s all about the space itself.

Great concert hall acoustics are the result of careful engineering. Where architecture, materials, acoustic treatment, and sound system design all work together to shape how sound travels through the space.

Everything matters:
Room geometry
Surface finishes
Reverberation control
Even sound distribution
System calibration

When these elements align properly, audiences don’t just hear the performance, they feel emotionally connected to it.

Acoustic modelling allows specialists to simulate sound behaviour before construction even begins, helping identify issues early and ensuring every seat delivers a balanced listening experience.

Because the reality is this: Even the best audio system cannot compensate for a poorly designed room.

The most successful venues treat acoustics as part of the architecture from day one. It’s never an afterthought.

Picture it. 75,000 racegoers. Sun blazing. Bars full. Bookies shouting. Crowds roaring. Commentary blasting across the track. Absolute chaos.

Now imagine having to switch from race commentary to emergency instructions instantly.
Mostly heard around the venue won’t cut it. Crystal clear, in every corner simultaneously is now the bar.

When panic, noise, alcohol, weather, and huge open spaces collide, sound behaves badly. Very badly.

Wind tears it apart.
Crowds absorb it.
Open air destroys intelligibility.
Poorly timed systems create echo and confusion.

And turning the volume up? That just adds to the confusion.

With the advent of Martyn’s law the emphasis has changed to safety first for PA systems. PA systems have to do far more than entertain.

They must deliver:
Immediate speech intelligibility
Seamless zone control
Perfect timing alignment
Reliable emergency override
Clear messaging under maximum pressure
Because in a real emergency, clarity isn’t a luxury.

It’s infrastructure.

Chris Kmiec has written an article discussing the impact of Martyn’s Law on Racecourse PA systems.

Managing sound for spoken word performances is tricky. And when the drama shifts to quieter, tender moments, any deficits in your system will be painfully obvious to the audience. Missed, or worse, misheard words literally ruin a performance.

Speech intelligibility in theatres is incredibly fragile.

- Too much reverberation? Dialogue smears together.
- Poor speaker timing? Words arrive twice.
- Bad tuning? Music and low frequencies bury the vocals completely.

And here’s the big misconception:
Louder does NOT mean clearer. In fact, in a badly behaved space, turning it up makes everything worse.

Great theatre sound design is about one thing:
Making speech feel effortless.
No straining.
No guessing.
No mental exhaustion trying to decode lines halfway through a performance.

That takes:
- Precise acoustic modelling
- Intelligent speaker placement
- Controlled reverberation
- Careful DSP tuning
- Consistent coverage across every seat

Because audiences should leave talking about the performance … not complaining they couldn’t understand the dialogue.

Read how speech intelligibility in theatres works in Chris Kmiec’s latest article “Why Dialogue Gets Lost in Theatre Sound Systems.”
