Figure 1.4. Ground-stacked M’elodie cabinets

The MCF-M’elodie caster frame is designed for transporting stacks of multiple units and facilitate the use of forklifts. A range of rugged protective transport covers is available.

M’elodie is also truck-smart. When transporting blocks of up to five M’elodie cabinets using the MCF-M’elodie caster frame, the dimensions are ideal for both U.S. and European trucks.

TOTAL SYSTEM APPROACH

M’elodie integrates seamlessly with other Meyer Sound products. With compatible acoustical and performance characteristics and dedicated QuickFly rigging hardware, M’elodie, MICA, MILO, and other Meyer Sound self- powered loudspeakers can provide you with everything you need to design and implement systems for optimum performance in venues of any size or shape.

TIP: Meyer Sound MAPP Online Pro acoustical prediction software allows you

to quickly determine the coverage, frequency response, impulse response, and maximum output of arrayed M’elodie loudspeakers as well as useful rigging information.

In addition to smooth integration with MICA, M’elodie can be supplemented with Meyer Sound subwoofers for extended low-frequency bandwidth and headroom. M’elodie arrays can be deployed in combination with

700-HP (Figure 1.6) ultrahigh-power subwoofers flown in a separate array or ground-stacked, extending the system frequency response down to 30 Hz.

Figure 1.6. The 700-HP ultrahigh-power subwoofer

The 600-HP compact high-power subwoofer (Figure 1.7) makes an ideal complement in applications where the power and features of the 700-HP are not needed, or when the subwoofers are flown in the same array with M’elodie. The 600-HP is a compact high-power dual 15- inch subwoofer that can be flown or ground-stacked with M’elodie using the MTF-MICA/M’elodie transition frame. In addition, M’elodie can be used in combination with other Meyer Sound subwoofers, such as the 650-P high-power subwoofer.
