In this episode of The SOUND Project, Gavin sits down with AJ Fager, founder of Force Tech, to talk about leading the complete audio, video, and lighting upgrade at the Palladium in Carmel, Indiana. From testing slip rings to moving from active to passive systems, AJ shares the problem-solving, planning, and teamwork it took to modernize one of the region’s premier performance venues. They also discuss Force Tech’s growth from a small church sound gig to a 60+ person integration company working on projects from the Indianapolis Motor Speedway to major municipal facilities.
