Dani Martín has launched his highly anticipated residency at Madrid’s Movistar Arena with resounding success, drawing more than 15,000 people per night during the opening dates of his anniversary tour.
To commemorate 25 years on stage, production company Puercospín Producciones entrusted Fluge Audiovisuales with supplying all technical equipment. The sound design focused on delivering linear response and maximum intelligibility, combining the power of PANTHER systems with the advanced processing of DiGiCo’s Quantum series.

PA infrastructure: the linear performance of PANTHER
The heart of the sound system for this production is based on Meyer Sound’s large-format line array technology. The main configuration was designed to acoustically cover the wide surface of the Madrid arena, ensuring absolute tonal consistency from the front rows to the highest tiers.
- Main system: 24 PANTHER-L loudspeakers were deployed along with 8 PANTHER-W units for the main PA, a combination that allows precise control of the required horizontal dispersion.
- Outfills and delays: To ensure lateral coverage and delay, an additional 16 PANTHER-L and 8 PANTHER-W units were used as outfills, supported by a delay system consisting of 8 LYON M and 10 LYON W, along with a lateral delay of 8 PANTHER-L.
- Low-frequency control: A system of 27 1100-LFC subwoofers provided the necessary impact for the artist’s rock-driven repertoire.
Nearfield coverage and frontfill
To maintain fidelity in the areas closest to the stage, Fluge’s technical team integrated more compact systems:
- Downfill and frontfill: A total of 16 LEOPARD loudspeakers were used (6 for downfill and 10 for frontfill). These loudspeakers allow seamless integration with the main PANTHER system.

FOH mixing control: DiGiCo Quantum 338 Pulse
At FOH, a DiGiCo Quantum 338 console equipped with the Pulse upgrade was used. This surface provides the processing power and flexibility required to manage a production of this scale, ranging from high-energy rock songs to more intimate string sections.
The channel management capacity and Quantum reliability allow the sound engineering team to work with an optimized signal flow, ensuring that every nuance of Dani Martín’s voice and band is delivered to the audience with complete transparency.
The combination of Fluge Audiovisuales’ technical expertise and the cutting-edge technology of Meyer Sound and DiGiCo has enabled this residency at the Movistar Arena to set a new benchmark for large-format sound quality in Spain.
