Overview

Project Summary

NightlifeHospitalityPerforming Arts

An intimate, jewel-box cabaret inside The Venetian Resort, engineered to deliver concert-grade sound at 1,000-seat scale while preserving the immersive, theatrical interior.

Acoustic treatment was woven into the crystal sculpture, drapery, and proscenium so every surface earns its place visually and acoustically.

Custom loudspeaker placement, isolated subwoofer arrays, and a tuned mix position support a residency-quality sound across cocktail, theatrical, and DJ programming.

Process

What we did

Cabaret acousticsPerformance reinforcementDecorative absorptionSubwoofer isolationSystem tuning

01

Studied the room

Modeled the asymmetric jewel-box geometry and reflective crystal scenography to identify reflection and decay challenges.

02

Hid the treatment

Engineered absorption inside the decorative crystal forms, drapery, and proscenium so the theatrical world reads first.

03

Designed the system

Specified arrays, fills, and isolated subs sized for residency-grade sound at any seat in the house.

04

Tuned for residency

Calibrated the system across cabaret, DJ, and theatrical programs so each show lands with the same clarity.
