\n\tAnnounced Thursday (May 21) and debuted at a splashy keynote presentation on Tuesday (May 19) at the Hollywood Bowl (where it will remain a permanent fixture), the L1 is 20% lighter and smaller than competing systems. The company reports that this will translate to a 20% decrease in transport cost, given that more L1 units can fit into trucks and storage.<\/p>\n

\n\tCrucially, L-Acoustics produces 30% fewer carbon emissions when manufacturing the new L1 compared to products of equal power and performance. The entire production process for the new system also requires 40% less wood, 60% less metal and 50% less paint.<\/p>\n

\n\tIt\u2019s good news for live crews, too, who will have an easier time setting up the line array. L Acoustics reports that the L1 design is three times faster to deploy, requiring 66% fewer rigging actions compared to the competition. \u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\tAt the Hollywood Bowl keynote, L-Acoustics also unveiled another new product called Source Intelligence, a machine learning technology that, in real-time, minimizes the background noise picked up by a vocalist\u2019s microphone, an issue commonly known as sound bleed. Source Intelligence is currently being used on\u00a0Harry\u00a0Styles<\/a>\u2018 Together, Together Tour and Rosal\u00eda<\/a>\u2018s Lux Tour and will also be used for Benson Boone<\/a>\u2018s upcoming tour.<\/p>\n

\n\tL-Acoustics is a key player in live sound. Its loudspeakers and systems can be spotted at the Coachella mainstage, Ultra Music Festival, the Super Bowl and countless other venues and mass gatherings around the world. <\/p>\n
