On September 10 and 11, 2025 at La Nave (Madrid), the AVL Summit by AFIAL offers specialized training aimed at professionals, with technical workshops delivered by industry leaders.
On September 10 and 11, Madrid will host at La Nave the first edition of the AVL SUMMIT, the 1st Audiovisual Congress in Spain, organized by AFIAL.
This pioneering event will bring together professionals, brands, and companies from the audiovisual sector in a unique space, conceived to be the benchmark for training, innovation, and networking in our country.
The program includes a comprehensive schedule of workshops delivered by leading brands in the sector, presenting the latest technological developments and offering high-level practical training. Highlights include:
Shure — New challenges in RF (Luis López, Earpro & EES)
- What you will learn: analysis of frequency-congested environments, interference mitigation techniques, spectrum planning, and use of tools such as Wireless Workbench Mobile.
- Practical application: essential for events with multiple RF systems (microphones, IEMs, intercom), where ensuring reliability, coverage, and quality is critical.
L-Acoustics — Immersive systems and ambient acoustics (Luc Espinach and Eva Argandoña)
- What it provides: fundamentals on immersive sound systems (such as L-ISA), acoustic design techniques for spaces not originally conceived for surround sound (hospitals, auditoriums, multisensory environments).
- Professional benefit: enables the creation of immersive sound experiences with precision, enhancing spatial perception and auditory comfort in permanent or temporary installations.
Robe & Avolites — Sustainable professional lighting (Asier Suso, Earpro & EES)
- What you will learn: management of high-performance LED luminaires with a focus on responsible consumption, handling DMX/RDM protocols, energy optimization, and integrated control.
- Applicability: fundamental in projects with high energy or sustainability requirements (hotels, auditoriums, permanent installations), reducing operating costs without sacrificing visual quality.
Epson — High brightness 4K projection (José Costa)
- Technical content: adjustment of optical parameters, color calibration, energy-saving modes, and preventive maintenance.
- Installer’s advantage: ensures proper configuration for demanding environments (conference rooms, simulators, medical environments), where sharpness, brightness, and reliability are key.
Astera — Versatile wireless lighting (J. García and J. Fernández, Earpro & EES)
- Key learning: “on-the-fly” configuration of battery-powered wireless luminaires, controlled via apps or wireless DMX protocols.
- Benefit: reduces cabling, speeds up temporary setups (events, exhibitions, pop-ups), and enables cleaner installations without compromising control or flexibility.
Spectera — Bidirectional wireless ecosystem (Samuel Leirado, Sennheiser)
- Technical goal: mastering a wireless digital in-ear audio system that offers high fidelity and low latency, combined with return and bidirectional control.
- Direct application: ideal for tours, concerts, theater, and mobile setups with high mobility, where monitoring accuracy and simplified rigging are essential.
New AVAM tools (September 10–11)
- Absen — LED rental trends (Juan M. Barbará): latest trends in large-format LED displays, pixel densities, curvatures, and quick mounting.
- Sonicue IX (Dynacord) (Jordi Raluy): integrated digital audio control, with routing, DSP, and network mixing, ideal for fixed installations and temporary events.
- Muse Automator (Harman) (David Mesas): AV workflow automation without coding, activating scenes and devices with standard protocols, useful in corporate or educational environments.
DPA N-Series + Wisycom RFOF (Javier Isequilla)
- What you will learn: integration of DPA N-Series microphones with ultralight Wisycom RF-over-Fiber (RFOF) in-ear systems, for ultra-low latency, high-quality wireless transmission.
- Technical impact: a perfect solution for broadcast, theater, and large rehearsals, where quality, weight, and stability are top priorities.
Barco Encore3 (Martin Mayobre)
- Content: operation of the Encore3 system as a screen control platform, video matrix, and scalable processing with an intuitive interface.
- Advantage: enables efficient management of complex multimedia environments (control rooms, monitoring centers, fixed AV) with operational efficiency.
Clay Paky — Eurovision 2025 case study (Alessandro Colangelo)
- What it provides: analysis of lighting design, technical coordination, and deployment in massive productions, scaling, and live synchronization.
- Real-world application: a reference for designers and professionals working on large-scale shows, with high-impact visual standards and operational robustness.
EclerPLEX / EclerCLOUD (Pablo González and María Martori)
- What they showcase: distributed and centralized IP-based audio and video control, remote cloud configuration, real-time monitoring, and management.
- Professional use: ideal for multisite installations (hospitals, retail, corporate), where remote control and centralized supervision are crucial.
Workshops and technical sessions
The program is completed with additional training and demonstrations by Spanish manufacturers and distributors, offering a comprehensive overview of the AV technologies that will set trends. These workshops not only update techniques but also empower AV professionals with:
- Knowledge immediately applicable to real projects, using cutting-edge tools.
- Improved efficiency in the design, execution, and operation of installations.
- The ability to deliver competitive, robust, and modern solutions in an increasingly demanding AV environment.
