Concept Solutions, the prime rental partner for Barco Audio Technologies in Western Europe, had invited 500 guests to Vienna for an exclusive demo of Barco's IOSONO sound systems. A 10-piece orchestra and the audiovisual collective A_NEW_DAY performed a versatile set ranging from classical music to immersive multimedia experiences. The event's highlight was a live show by Klangkarussell and DJs Steve Hope and Tom Snow. The performances combined pre-produced and live content as well as a real-time sound positioning for instruments and artists. For "PREMIUM 2016", Hall E in Vienna's MuseumsQuartier was equipped with a sound system comprising the IOSONO CORE audio processor and 57 speakers as well as state of the art light equipment.

"Barco's IOSONO sound system is the most flexible and high quality 3D sound system available on the event market," says Florian Weber, CEO of Concept Solutions, a leading provider of professional event technology, consulting and rental equipment. "We see today's audiences become more and more demanding. To create a truly premium event, organizers need to offer a wow effect.
