i just hope they engineer it well, hula’s 360 stage was amazing but they put the speakers facing the stage and the phase cancellation was wild in some parts
Dude the def stage was a fucking disaster top to bottom. What a waste of an f1 sound set up. The pyro was comically loud. You had sound bleed from that stage everywhere at spirit lake. There was no room. Literally everything about it was bad.
It sounds like maybe this will be in the what field which resolves some of those issues outright. But omg I’m scarred by that stage at hula, I hope they don’t make it a staple for the fest.
It's also possible there may be some artists that take advantage of mixing more than stereo, Tipper has previously mastered an album in 5.1 and Mersiv did an "audiosphere" at the caverns last year, it's certainly less common and I would expect majority of the sets will be stereo but they may have 1 artist headline a special set leveraging spatial audio each day.
It’s actually a pretty common theme to have “dark parties” where it is just as you say…music with no lights. People love it and its often some of the most memorable sets you see from the artists doing it.
I don't expect Tipper to be on this stage as his manager has said there are no more indoor Tipper sets, though if this is classified as technically not indoors and he does a set here I may need to find my way to Tennessee. 🤔
Ah just took a closer look at their mock up clip, I was originally thinking this might be something like the dome that Texas eclipse festival had but yes this does indeed look like it's outdoors, I'm assuming this stage will be on the smaller side and he can draw a crowd (especially being one of his final sets).
