Advanced Concepts & Designs Helps Downtown Vegas' New Hot Spot to RockLas Vegas-based commercial audio, video, lighting, and control systems contractor Advanced Concepts & Designs recently completed the design and installation of the audio, video, lighting, and control systems at Freedom Beat, a new restaurant and live music venue inside the Downtown Grand Hotel & Casino, located at 203 N 3rd Street in downtown Las Vegas. Freedom Beat -- now open 24 hours a day and serving classic American food -- plays classic American music with live performances by local and regional artists nightly. "Although the timeline was a bit crazy, we were excited that all of the elements came together and we had all systems operational by opening date," said Advanced's general manager Mike Brown-Cestero. "Working together with 34th Floor Hospitality, Bunnyfish Studios architecture, and Gibson Brands -- who provided the Cerwin Vega! PA system -- we were able to make the most of the three-week turn-around time." Patrick Genovese, entertainment relations professional for Gibson Brands -- parent company of Cerwin Vega! Audio -- added "Cerwin Vega! is pleased to be the main loudspeaker company in the all new Freedom Beat music venue inside the Downtown Grand Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada. We share in the excitement, enthusiasm, and talent of the Las Vegas music scene and look forward to a bright future with the Downtown Grand Hotel & Casino." The entire system features a main performance sound system by Cerwin Vega!, a distributed audio system by JBL and QSC, stage lighting by Elation Professional and a Crestron control system. Several iPads -- distributed among the management team -- allow for source, volume, and lighting changes.
