Catalina United Methodist Church

LiteSync was pleased to assist the church with a new pro sound system upgrade of their main chapel.  This landmark church on Speedway Blvd was built in 1956.  The existing audio system was installed by a local vendor some years back that did not have the skills to execute such work correctly and the audio signal reproduction was poor at best.  LiteSync brought in our sound engineer and he calculated the needs of the space and we then installed the equipment.  New JBL line arrays, Crown amplification, a BSS London processor and a beautiful new Soundcraft digital mixing board made the changes that will carry this facility many decades into the future.  LiteSync also upgraded the hearing assist system with new Listen Technologies equipment.  LiteSync is a Level One certified hearing assist system provider.

Our engineer Mark is easily one of the best in the industry.  We are proud to be working with him.

Acoustical Remediation at Sahuarita High School

LiteSync contracted with Sahuarita High School to make acoustical repairs to various music rooms.  The acoustical defects and issues in band rooms, chorus rooms, were deep and difficult for them.  Our PHD and architect calculated the needs to add the proper treatments to make the changes these rooms needed and when such treatments were installed by LiteSync, the school raved about the results.  Pictured here is some wall treatments that combined with new ceiling tiles made the band practice room more "lively" as was requested. 

DOE Residential Lighting Study

The Department of Energy (DOE) has published the "Residential Lighting End-Use Consumption Study:  Estimation Framework and Initial Estimate." which focused on developing new estimates of residential lighting usage and energy consumption at the national regional levels within households and even by lamp characteristics. 

At annual kilowatts per hour, sadly Arizona was in the highest category at 2,100 to 2,400 with California and New York at the lowest end of the scale at 1,200 to 1,300

The Tucson Community Center Arena

Today LiteSync had it's V.P. climbing around on service catwalks of the Tucson Community Center arena.  Hat's off to Kelly for dragging her Canon 7d camera and L glass lens up there to get some shots of the existing and dated arena equipment.  LiteSync is preparing a power point video to present to the City ReoNuevo committee members in order to help them make much needed lighting and audio upgrade decisions.  Time to get the TCC out of the stone age!  Stay tuned for exciting updates! 

Marriott Hotel Lighting Automation

The Tucson Marriott University Park Hotel is one of the busiest hotels in the city of Tucson.  Their existing lighting automation system was dated and failing.  Over time LiteSync had been called in to make patch repairs but when it was time for a remodel of the facility, LiteSync was called upon to not only help with the remodel but also to assist with the automation system upgrade.

The existing systems manufacture was no longer in business.  While LiteSync had the software program for its dated processor, the floppy disk it operated on of course had long since lost it's magnetic properties. 

So LiteSync built an entirely new program of operation for the new Savant/LiteTouch lighting control.  The project was executed in two phases.  Phase one had all the gear mounted and ready.  Phase two had us drop out the 400 amp 3 phase switch in the basement to pull out the old automation rack and land over 100 new cables into the LiteTouch gutter assembly.  The phase two cut over took 16 hours to complete but when done, all systems were go. 

LiteSync offered this hotel an installation that brought the low voltage work and the high voltage work all under our contractors license.  We eliminate the low voltage integrator and their cost burden on the job.

Sanctuary Remodel

A division of LiteSync installs professional grade entertainment lighting, sound, video and acoustical treatments.  We have some of the states finest designers and installers on our team and we can meet virtually any need anywhere locally, nationally and even internationally.  Currently LiteSync is consulting on a project in Jamaica. 

Recently we were contracted with to perform a remodel of a Tucson east side church where the sanctuary was receiving a total make over.  LiteSync rebuilt stage floor pockets for microphone and speaker monitor distribution.  We also completely upgraded the sound system by installing new JBL line array speakers driven by Crown amplification.  

New video distribution was installed in the form of 2 motorized 15 foot screens and multiple hi-def projectors.  The change in sound and video was truly dramatic for the congregation. 

Below is one of the JBL loudspeaker arrays with a nearby hi-def video projector.

Welcoming Wireless Home

THE HALLMARK of the cellular revolution is the ability to do so many things on the go. Smartphones have given an entirely new meaning to being mobile.

In this sense, being mobile doesn't just mean checking bank accounts or sending an e mail from a phone. On a more basic level, it means doing these (and so many other things) without being tethered to a stationary device. Not so long ago, however, simply doing some of these things on a desktop computer was considered liberating.

The changes we see and are benefiting from have much less to do with any particular device, such as a cellular phone or a PC, than they do with the evolution of a particular technology. the technology is the ability to convey data and signals over a wireless transmission.
