Sympodium and Podium
The Oakley Auditorium is equipped with both a Podium and a Sympodium. Each of these have built-in microphones that can pick up the speaker's sound even when not directly next to the speaker. The Sympodium is equipped with a computer that has Smartboard technology, a DVD/VHS player, a document camera, and hook-up cables conveniently placed for notebook computers.
Audio
In addition to the microphone in the Podiums, additional microphones will be provided upon request. Lavaliere/Lapel, Handheld Wired, and Handheld Wireless are all available for use along with microphone stands as needed.
Please request microphones ahead of time so that the audio settings me be adjusted prior to the event.
Audio files can also be used during events. If you plan on using audio files please let us know ahead of time how you plan on using them (i.e. cued audio, etc.). Also please let us know what file format the audio is as well as any other details about intended use. Please also keep in mind the "Fair Use Guidelines."
Lighting
Lighting can add the perfect addition to the audio and visual resources you may be using in the auditorium. The Oakley Auditorium has seven lighting schemes available that can be switched on cue. Below are two commonly used schemes.
- Full Lights without Spotlights
This is the default scheme and is controlled with the on/off light switch in the auditorium. - Awards Lighting
This is full stage lighting with spotlights and moderate audience lighting. Not recommended for projection video.
