INTRODUCTI ON
For portable live sound applications, or fixed installations in almost any type of venue, the Event Line Arrays have
been designed to provide exceptional sound, steadfast reliability and value beyond comparison.
Also, the Event Line Arrays incorporate high frequency waveguides designed with the same technology as the
aero series. The Event series is expanded with two satellites: EVENT-212A and EVENT-212.120A, and a subwoofer:
EVENT-121A, to provide a complete solution for all your Events.
Features
– Powered 3-way line array system
– Clase D amplifier 3 x 1000 Wpeak
– DAScontrol™ Interface for fast setup
– High-end DSP chipsets with FIR filters
– 2 x 12″, 12MI4, loudspeakers in dual band configuration
– 1 x M-75 compression driver, 3" VCD
– 90º wide coverage
– Top grade Birch cabinet construction
– Robust quick-rig professional rigging hardware
EVENT-212A
EVENT-212A
The EVENT-212A is a powered, 3-way line array which employs two 12″ loudspeakers in a dual band
configuration where each speaker operates in a specific frequency range. At low frequencies, the speakers work in
tandem for maximum power, each driven by a dedicated amplifier channel providing 1000 Wpeak output power.
The loudspeaker units have been teamed up with a single M-75 compression driver and purpose-designed
injected aluminum high frequency waveguide to provide unmatched performance, sensitivity and coverage in the
formats offered.
The EVENT-212A line array incorporates the DAScontrol™ interface which offers a quick and hassle-free set-up
of the systems in arrays and easy alignment with the EVENT-218A and EVENT-121A subwoofer systems. Presets for
the number of units of the array, HF compensation for throw distances, and correction for the splay angle of the array
can be selected by way of DAScontrol™ and the LCD screen on the located on the back of the cabinet.
The powerful digital signal processing of the EVENT-212A includes Finite Impulse Response (FIR) filters
providing linear phase response and precise impulse response which in terms of performance, results in added clarity,
defined attack in percussion and overall, a more natural sound.

EVENT-121A
– Active direct radiating rear-loaded subwoofer system
– 1 x 21″, 21LFN, neodymium loudspeaker
– 3200Wpeak – 1600 Wcontinuous
– Class D amplifier and digital signal processing (DSP)
– Two balanced inputs with stereo filtered output
connections
– Variable low-pass filter 63 Hz-100 Hz
– Top located pole mount socket for TRD-6 optional pole
mount
– Rear located wheels to ease transport
– Top grade Birch cabinet construction
– Durable ISO-flex finish
EVENT-121A
The EVENT-121A is a direct radiating rear-loaded powered subwoofer system which incorporates a single 21″
neodymium loudspeaker providing “earth-moving” low-frequency reproduction for the Event Series line arrays. The
combination of direct radiation and rear-loading provides a high output, tight and accurate sub-bass response.
The EVENT-121A employs the new 21LFN loudspeaker which offers impressive features such as a 4″ sandwich
split winding voice coil, a powerful FEA optimized neodymium magnet assembly and a FEA optimized suspension
system with double silicon spider. The result is a loudspeaker with exceptional sensitivity, high power handling
capacity and a quality suspension design capable of withstanding the stress and mechanical fatigue of today´s highpower pro audio systems. An aluminum demodulating ring benefits lower distortion and effective forced ventilation of
the voice coil gap provides for a high thermal rating, and reduced power compression.
The EVENT-121A electronics package includes a 3200 Wpeak Class D amplifier and 24-bit high-end DSP for top
quality audio reproduction. On the rear panel, controls can be found for gain, polarity and a continually variable lowpass filter which ranges from 63 Hz to 100 Hz. A unique “cardioid preset” button simplifies the use of subs in cardioid
configurations, making setup of two to three units a snap without the need for an external DSP. The EVENT-121A is
phase response coherent with the EVENT-208A, EVENT-210A and EVENT-212A active tops offering precise
alignment. Two balanced inputs with stereo filtered outputs which can be switched to pass-through connections are
provided.
