Brompton sets new standards at TBCo

Located in Nashville, Tennessee, The Belonging Co. (TBCo) has always prioritised live productions that create an experience where people can connect with God without distraction. The HOW has become one of the fastest-growing churches in the US, with its congregation of just seven people at the outset climbing to many thousands in only six years. Along with weekly worship services, TBCo also includes a worship collective comprising a number of well-known local artists, an annual conference and even a college. With a recent video system installation by integrator Diversified, in partnership with THOR AV, a developer of LED videowalls and headset microphones, TBCo has taken ownership of a videowall driven by Brompton Technology’s Tessera S8 LED processor.

Diversified’s project team considered THOR’s Edge 3.4 LED panels for the new facility. “Our teams collaborated closely with the client and manufacturer on the design of the stage, placement of the LED wall and its relationship to artists onstage and camera positions, as well as associated sightlines throughout the space,” said Tim Corder, director of strategic accounts – house of worship for Diversified. “Brompton processing was a critical component from the beginning because of the benefits the Tessera platform brings in both picture quality and panel calibration.”

“The Tessera S8 processor was the preferred choice for this project because the client didn’t need the fibre distribution associated with the SX40,” added THOR AV’s director of sales and marketing, Luke Vettel. “They simply wanted to be able to put all their Cat cables in their rack, plug it in and be good to go. The S8 fits the best price point for this functionality.”

"Our primary goal from a worship and production standpoint is to eliminate distraction for people to encounter a real and living God,” shared TBCo’s executive creative pastor, Sean Loche. “In order to do that, you need a product that only adds to the overall system, without taking away from the reason why we are gathering. That is precisely why we chose our system. THOR and Brompton stood out in both excellence and quality. The system is powerful enough to create big moments when you need it but does not sacrifice in the quality needed for the subtle moments. We have been thrilled with the versatility of this technology implemented into our services."

“With the Tessera S8 processor, we can help our clients create a visual experience so lifelike and real, the audience is truly captivated with the message,” concluded Vettel. “We never tire of saying that ‘every component matters’. That is why having a solution in place we can trust, and that our customers can fully rely on for making their on-camera performances excel every time, is invaluable to us. We are excited to have Brompton Technology as our partner. They offer world-class service and product quality, and continue to be the thought leader in LED processing.”
