Additional audio equipment will include Crown Audio Vrack amplifier systems, Soundcraft Vi Series digital consoles, and AKG wireless and wired microphones. A complete Martin lighting system will feature Martin MAC 700, MAC 301, and MAC Viper lights.

"NAMM attendees know they can look to Harman Professional for the very best in pro audio and lighting, and this year our Center Grand Plaza Main Stage was better and more exciting than ever," said Paul Bauman, associate director, tour sound, JBL Professional. "It was a unique and informative opportunity for show-goers to experience our products where it really counts -- in the real-world proving ground of live performance."

The Stage also hosted a variety of live entertainment during the day. In addition to the concerts, professional sound and lighting company representatives attending NAMM were able to schedule a daytime technical walk-through with Harman Professional staff.
