Networking
From the very start of the planning period, it was decided to implement a fully networked audio system for this show using the Dante Audio networking protocol. This was possible due to the equipment available in the chandler being Dante enabled. Due to the complexities of the show, it was essential that every member of the sound team had an understanding of what was getting plugged in where and how the power on procedure would be implemented.

The Equipment
For Assassins, we used a Yamaha QL5 digital mixing console with a RIO 32/16 stage box. During the planing stage, we made the decision to use the Shure Axient Rack, which consists of 5 AD4Q receivers, Antenna Distro, and 3 Battery Chargers. The decision to use this equipment was an easy one due to the Shure Axient equipment being Dante enabled which meant we were able to add the equipment into the existing network with ease.
We used the Chandler MacBook Pro to run Qlab 4. This was also added into our network via DVS (Dante Virtual Soundcard).
OSC
Due to the complexity of the Cueing of the sound effects along with Lighting effects. The decision was made between the Sound designer and the DSM to implement an idea which would make it much easier to ensure effects were cued at the same time. We added OSC (Open Sound Control) into the system which was able to solve the issue. Open Sound Control (OSC) is a protocol for networking sound synthesizers, computers, and other multimedia devices for purposes such as musical performance or show control. Having OSC as part of the system allowed us to have flexibility but the DSM to have an enhanced organization of their cuing which assisted the production to be as smooth running as possible.
