Goodspeed Opera House’s Sennheiser Wireless Gear Heard, Not Seen

Tuesday, July 13th, 2010

EAST HADDAM, CT – The Goodspeed Opera House stages musicals in an intimate setting, giving audience members an up-close look at the detailed choreography and costumes. Goodspeed Musicals' sound team uses compact wireless microphone systems from Sennheiser, and the clip-on mics and transmitters are small enough to stay tucked away and out of view.
Keeping the microphones
completely hidden is a major priority for us, said Jay Hilton, sound designer
for Goodspeed Musicals. But it still takes some doing to make sure microphones
remain completely out of sight, yet deliver natural-sounding, non-muffled
sound.

Pearl Jam Goes Digital but Stays with Midas

Tuesday, July 13th, 2010

SEATTLE – Karrie Keyes, who has been mixing monitors since 1991, opted for a Midas PRO6 console supplied by Rat Sound for the band's 2010 tour in support of its Backspacer album. This represented a change for Keyes, a longtime devotee of Midas' Heritage desk and other analog consoles.
This is the first tour I
have used a PRO6 on, she said. I found it extremely easy to learn, and felt
comfortable on it after the first show.
