GoboTraps Added to RealTraps Lineup
 December 20, 2004
RealTraps has announced their new
GoboTrap system consisting of a light-weight carriage with wheels that
accommodates either standard or "Gobo" MiniTraps. The traps are stacked
sideways on the carriage to create a gobo that's four feet wide, and two or
three traps can be attached for a total height of either four or six feet.
The GoboTrap carriage hovers very low to the floor to minimize sound leakage
under the traps, and the wheels are large enough to roll easily on thick
carpet or over wires.
Either standard MiniTraps or newer specially designed GoboTraps may be used
with the GoboTrap carriage, depending on the application. To create an
acoustically dead sounding area or an enclosed booth within a larger space,
or for use as a large portable absorber to change the liveness of a room,
you'll use standard MiniTraps. For maximum isolation, perhaps to surround a
drum set or loud instrument amplifier, GoboTraps are more appropriate.
GoboTraps are available in standard and HF versions. Standard GoboTraps are
absorbent on one side and reflective on the other, where the HF type is
absorbent on both sides. Both are built with an internal MDF barrier to
provide sufficient mass to effectively block sound from passing through.
GoboTraps are sold in a variety of configurations-as a package including two
or three MiniTraps or GoboTraps, as GoboTrap panels only, or as the carriage
alone for use with existing MiniTraps.
