CHAPTER 5
MG-1D Multipurpose Grid
The MG-1D multipurpose grid (Figure 6.3) allows M1D and
M1D-Sub loudspeakers to be flown or ground stacked.
Figure 6.3. MG-1D multipurpose grid
An adjustable extension frame provides flexibility for
severe up-tilt and down-tilt in flown applications as well as
increasing the stability in ground-stacked applications. Up
to 16 M1D loudspeakers (or the equivalent weight of M1D
and M1D-Sub loudspeakers) may be suspended from single
or multiple rigging points of appropriate rating, with a safety
factor of 7:1.
The MG-1D grid provides additional functionality, such as
transitioning from the bottom of an M2D and/or M2D-Sub
array to:
 An M1D and/or M1D-Sub array;
 One UPA-1P compact wide coverage loudspeaker;
 Three UPA-2P compact narrow coverage loudspeakers;
 Two MSL-4 horn-loaded long-throw loudspeakers; or
 Two DS-4P horn-loaded mid-bass loudspeakers
MTG-1D Top Grid
The MTG-1D top grid (Figure 6.4) provides multiple hanging
configurations for M1D and M1D-Sub arrays.
Figure 6.4. MTG-1D top grid
The MTG-1D grid allows single- or multi-point support
and bridles. An adjustable rear extension frame provides
flexibility for severe up-tilt and down-tilt applications. Up to
16 M1D loudspeakers (or the equivalent weight of M1D and
M1D-Sub loudspeakers) may be suspended from single or
multiple rigging points of appropriate rating, with a safety
factor of 7:1.
MUB-1D Mounting U-Bracket
The MUB-1D multipurpose U-bracket (figure 6.5) is mainly
designed to support and aim a single M1D loudspeakers
in a floor or ceiling mounted configuration. However, it is
robust and versastile enough for flying small arrays of M1D
loudspeakers. Multiple mounting holes provide maximum
flexibility.
Figure 6.5. MUB-1D mounting U-bracket
NOTE: The MUB-1D multipurpose U-bracket
does not have the strength or functionality of
a rigging grid and therefore it is not recommended
for large arrays or arrays that include M1D-Subs.
For these and other flown applications that require
the strength and functionality of a rigging grid, the
MTG-1D top grid or the MG-1D multipurpose grid
should be used.
