For decades, the hippest and most happening spot on the Sunset Strip has been a small, boat-shaped bar and performance space upstairs from the Rainbow Bar & Grill<\/a>, aptly named Over the Rainbow. When I \"\"was a kid growing up in Hollywood, the Rainbow was the<\/em> place for rock stars and music fans to rub elbows over some of the best pizza in town. Over the Rainbow was where the really cool<\/em> crowd hung out.<\/p>\n

I was thrilled when the Rainbow recently became an official HARMAN Professional Solutions brand ambassador and a HARMAN Connected PA<\/a> replaced Over the Rainbow\u2019s antiquated sound system.<\/p>\n

Mario Maglieri, who passed away earlier this year at the age of 93, opened the Rainbow in 1972 with a group of high-profile music industry friends. It was named for Judy Garland, who was best known for singing \u201cSomewhere Over the Rainbow\u201d in the movie \u201cThe Wizard of Oz.\u201d Garland was the wife of the building\u2019s previous owner, stage and film director Vincente Minnelli. Since then, the Rainbow has been legendary. It is venerated in dozens of books about rock \u2018n\u2019 roll with stories about everyone from John Lennon, David Bowie and Led Zeppelin to X, Guns N\u2019 Roses, Alice Cooper and Mot\u00f6rhead\u2019s\u00a0Lemmy Kilmister frequenting the downstairs dining room and more secluded alcoves of Over the Rainbow.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Through the years, the Over the Rainbow sound system\u2014which was piecemeal in its best of days\u2014became plagued by buzzes and a cumbersome set up process. On different nights, the club books bands, features DJs and hosts private events, and the PA was difficult to modify for its various purposes. The space needed a modern, adaptable sound system. Mario\u2019s grandson, Mikeal Maglieri, Jr., who now owns the Rainbow as well as the famed Whisky a Go Go just down the street, agreed that HARMAN Connected PA was the ideal choice for the room.<\/p>\n

\u201cConnected PA makes a world of difference,\u201d said Mikeal. \u201cThe new PRX800<\/a> speakers with built-in amps are much more powerful than what we had before. The system is far more efficient and cleaner sounding.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cTo prepare for the new system, we cleared out the whole room. There was a lot of secondary gear, like amps and crossovers and faders, hooked up in the DJ room. We got rid of every bit of it and started from scratch. Now, there\u2019s the one Soundcraft<\/a> interface that all the inputs and outputs go through. That\u2019s the only thing we have running in the DJ room, and everything down to the speakers and sound processing is controlled on an iPad. It\u2019s amazing!\u201d said Mikeal.<\/p>\n

The Rainbow\u2019s Connected PA-compatible JBL PRX800 system consists of two pairs of JBL PRX 812P<\/a> speakers and two JBL PRX 818 XLF<\/a> subwoofers. The mains are on swivel mounts in the dance floor area where bands play. They can be turned toward the dance floor on DJ nights and outward when a band performs. The second pair of PRX812Ps serve as satellite speakers in the bar area, a few steps above the dance floor.<\/p>\n

For shows, the Rainbow also deploys AKG P5i<\/a> microphones. The loudspeakers and mics are patched into a Soundcraft Ui24R digital mixer and set up using a central app. The app automatically identifies and configures connected equipment and provides setup wizards for easy configuration from a variety of devices.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe were excited to install our new Connected PA in the Rainbow,\u201d said JT Taylor, Sr. Application Engineer, Recording and Retail for HARMAN Professional Solutions. “The place has a tremendous history, and it\u2019s great to see some of our legacy brands share the Rainbow\u2019s next chapter.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe worked hand-in-hand with the club\u2019s management and AV staff to make sure we clearly understood their goals,\u201d said JT. \u201cThey had a completely outdated 30-year-old hodgepodge system that buzzed because of inherent technical issues. They were using passive speakers with a complicated amplifier network in the small DJ booth. Our powered system makes things a lot simpler for them.\u201d<\/p>\n

DJ Will is one of four DJs who works at the Rainbow and serves as the venue\u2019s primary AV person. Although he has worked at the club for eight years, he has been going to the Rainbow for almost three decades and knows every detail of the space. \u201cMy involvement as a DJ has also been something of a custodial role. I make sure everything is up and running with the mics when we have bands playing,\u201d he said. \u201cWhen it\u2019s just the DJs spinning music, the sound is relatively easy to control, because everything is pre-mixed and mastered. But in a live setting, we need to switch gears\u00a0and become more like engineers than DJs. Just the same, a complete system update was long overdue.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"

\u201cIt\u2019s important for performers and patrons to be comfortable and enjoy themselves in the different areas,\u201d DJ Will said. \u201cWith the subwoofers on the dance floor and satellite speakers in the bar, I can keep thevolume at appropriate levels for every circumstance. With our low ceilings, the key is to not go crazy with high levels of decibels. You want the bartender to hear drink orders and make sure guests can carry on a conversation without needing to yell at one another. Meanwhile, on the dance floor, people can feel the full impact of the subs. The automatic feedback suppression on the Ui24R is a cool feature that helps when we have bands playing. The new system is awesome and gives me a lot more control.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAs a DJ, there\u2019s another benefit of Ui24R,\u201d DJ Will continued. \u201cOur booth isn\u2019t big enough for standard turntables, so we use laptops. If one ever crashes or freezes up, we have the option to use the Soundcraft\u2019s multichannel USB audio interface as a backup with a memory stick.\u00a0It becomes an emergency sound source, if need be.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s great to have this partnership with HARMAN,\u201d said DJ Will. \u201cJT Taylor and Damien Curry [HARMAN Professional Solutions Sr. Product Specialist] did an amazing job of installing the new system and getting us up to speed on using it.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cEveryone who works in Over the Rainbow is really happy,\u201d said Mikeal. The bands that perform are enjoying the new gear, and I\u2019ve had nothing but compliments from the DJs. Connected PA\u2019s functionality and durability make an immense difference.”<\/p>\n
