Project Description

Saint Stanislaus Church is a 1300 seat cruciform Sanctuary located in California’s Central Valley, serving a large agricultural community in Modesto. The building features arched arcades and a large dome above the altar platform, and is part of a master-planned parish site that will continue to expand to include a Family Life Center, schools and a new rectory. The architecture by the renowned firm of Hyndman and Hyndman merges traditional forms with a contemporary worship environment by using California mission style materials for entry access and other accents throughout the church.

AMT Systems was selected to design and install the sound system, and worked in harmony with the design team to provide highly intelligible and even coverage of the congregation seating areas for the spoken word liturgy while also providing separate multi-microphone capabilities for the various musical ensembles which vary from traditional to ethnic and contemporary.

Touch screens in the Vesting and Work Sacristies provide system operational access and control using AMT custom programmed menu pages to activate and operate a digital audio signal processing and routing electronics system that controls a multi-cabinet speaker cluster located above the altar platform and below the dome as well as distributed speakers covering walkways at each transept, the expansive Narthex area, and outdoor areas.

AMT designed and installed systems in Catholic Churches throughout California are providing reliable support of music and liturgy with user-friendly activation, operation and control. Saint Stanislaus is a continuation of our commitment to this simple and dependable system integration concept.
