The FBC of Allen wanted a dedicated worship space on their campus.
Acoustic Dimensions worked with the church and F&S Partners to identify and clarify the their priorities for the space, then adjusted some of the room elements and the acoustic signature to better support their worship style. This included lowering the ceiling, providing angled acoustical panels on the rear walls and using a samll audio-only control booth on the main floor to minimize seat loss, while video and lighting control are located in the balcony.
The loudspeakers are a left-center-right configuration designed to support both speaking and music with subwoofers located under the platform. Dual rear projection screens flank the stage to provide both sermon and worship support.
The lighting system was designed to support a traditional worship style.
