“We're assigning audio to different video options. The system is already in use at music venues, but Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse was the first sports venue to adopt it. Unlike standard surround sound, which utilizes just five speakers, Soundscape can create an audio environment in which different sounds appear to be coming from up to 64 different sources within the Power Portal at once. The tunnel also incorporates Soundscape technology, built by German audio engineering firm D&B Audiotechnik. On ingress, we have a lot of people hanging around to take pictures and selfies and really using this as a gathering spot,” Conley said. “We’re trying to replace the emotion and effects of what a modern day theater would do, and make it a great welcome point for people coming in and exiting the venue.

“Back in 1994, the concept of a data center was non existent. Future plans could even boost that bandwidth four times more, which could be crucial when it hosts the NBA All-Star Game in 2022. The Curtain Wall, a 77,100-square-foot glass exterior that can be illuminated with a rainbow of colored lights, now drapes the outside of the building.Īt the heart of all of the venue’s new technology implementations is an overhauled data center, expanded in physical size from 220 square feet to nearly 700, and with 10 times the network bandwidth. Originally opened as the Gund Arena in 1994, and known as the Quicken Loans Arena from 2005 through 2019, the FieldHouse emerged from a two-year, $185 million renovation project in September. Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse, home to both the NBA’s Cleveland Cavaliers and the American Hockey League's Cleveland Monsters, is a vibrant part of downtown Cleveland.
