Audio Services:

MSI tailors the equipment to your needs. We stock over 500 JBL, Meyer, TAD, EAW, Apogee, Woodworx, Ramsa, and Yamaha speakers with appropriate amplifiers, processing, rigging, stands, and brackets. Yamaha, Soundcraft and Ramsa consoles handle front of house or monitor mixing. Our new push into digital consoles allows us thousands of input channels for the most complex productions. MSI can mic up your talent with any of our 225 wireless systems or 1500 wired microphones. We can play back or record on any device, including classics such as the 360 Systems Instant Replay, Otari half-track reel, and reel recorders. We can process anything from our computer controller XTA system processors to that 20 year-old Lexicon Prime Time that your talent just won’t sing without. We also have miles of XLR, multi-channel snakes, and speaker cable.

MSI’s present inventory can support 80 concurrent breakout rooms, eight general sessions of 2500, and six general sessions of 5000. If you want to invite 65,000 of your closest friends to the stadium for a presentation or concert, we’ll provide the concert-size line array system, digital-mixing consoles, and in-ear monitor equipment. With MSI’s educated staff and comprehensive equipment, your show is guaranteed to succeed.

Lighting and Rigging Services:

MSI will portray you in the best light--whether you need to illuminate one podium for a small meeting, or you need to decorate an entire amusement park during the holiday season. We have the staff and equipment ready to produce themed or color-balanced video lighting for any concert rider, business meeting, theater production, fashion show, spook house, or dance production; even an 120 foot-long X-Games skateboard ramp (yes, we have done it).

MSI is San Diego’s largest and cutting edge lighting company. In-house we store hundreds of Source Four Ellipsoidal and PAR fixtures, along with a wide variety of Altman PAR– 64’s, 56’s, 46’s, and 30’s, Altman,and DeSisti Fresnels. We can handle illuminating your scenic needs with MR-16 strip lights, Altman Sky Cycs, or for more punch: Color Kinetics Color Blasts and Color Blazes, Coemar LED Pars, and Blizzard Puck Q12s.

If you need your lights to really move, San Diego’s largest intelligent lighting inventory consists of GLP Volks Licht Zooms, Martin Mac Auras, and the industry standard Martin Mac 2000/700/500 units. You can control it all with any configuration of ETC Sensor or Leprecon dimming by way of an ETC, Leprecon, Hog, or Martin console. For something a little different, we have over 500 Color Kinetics iCove LEDs, a Catalyst Media Server System, or Omni systems Thin Pars (with wireless DMX and optional battery operation!). We even carry over 5,000 feet of twinkle lights to add a little sparkle to any event.

Hang any or all of it with our 3,200 feet of 12” or 20.5” box truss; hook it up using our 10 miles of multi-cable or 20,000 feet of pin cable, Cam-Lok, or DMX cable. We can fly a dozen shows at once using 100 CM Loadstar motors. If thinking about all of this gives you a headache, we offer customized design services for all of your illumination and rigging needs.

Video Services:

From small-screen computer projection to multi-camera arena-sized image magnification, MSI’s video services can’t be beat. We offer recording, playback, projection, and switching packages to cover any need or budget. Projectors from Christie, Barco, Digital Projection, Sanyo, and others can fill any size screen with video images or your high-resolution data. Our high-res switching package comes with Sony HD cameras and an HD camera switcher, offering true digital component from camera to hard drive.

MSI’s Video Department recently underwent a million-dollar upgrade. We offer Christie Roadster HD20k's, which deliver 20,000 ANSI lumens at 1920 X 1080 resolution. Feeding these is our Folsom Encore system, and you’ll have a big, bright, all-digital image that will be larger than a house. We have a couple 80-foot widescreens for your big product rollout too. Does your booth require a dozen 80-inch HD LED screens? Need to show your new game system in 1080p? Need to see your three-screen live from the web multi-site product demo complete with a High-Res quad split in the downstage monitors? We have the technology, talent, and understanding to handle it all.

We can read, alter, draw, and plot in nearly any format used today. Our full-sized plotters generate fantastic, detailed drawings of your project. Forget FedEx--send us your files directly to our secure FTP site. We’ll manage your presenters, a speaker concierge service, your graphic artist, and that 24-station Internet café that provides your attendees with much-needed e-mail access at your event.
