This was a highly rewarding time at the resort where I was responsible for maintaining and designing audio visual systems based on Medialon, Q-SYS, and Hippotizer.For me, the best highlights by far were designing a Q-SYS based audio system for BGA and message delivery across the whole resort, and also the overhaul of the legacy audio system in Splash Landings Hotel & the Alton Towers Water Park.This one in particular really contributed to my professional growth gaining new skills in CAD and project management among others. It was a massive undertaking for just one person but I'm thankful for the opportunity and the skills I picked up on the way.One of my favourite things about this project was working with the control features in Q-SYS, it really can stand as a control system in its own right and I'm looking forward to developing more framework components for future projects.
