Adam Lambert Goes for Sennheiser 2000 Series Wireless Personal Monitors on His Glam Nation Tour


 

Old Lyme, Conn.- November 9, 2010 – Already well sacs en cuirestablished as acritically-acclaimed actor and vocalist of the international theater scene,Adam Lambert became a household name after finishing as runner-up in the eighthseason of American Idol. His irresistible charisma and electrifyingperformances quickly earned him a recording deal, and the subsequent release,For christianlouboutin shoes sale Your Entertainment, debuted at number three on the Billboard 200and sold nearly 200,000 copies in its first week. In July of 2010, he organizedthe Glam Nation Tour, relying on the stagecraft of his earlier career in ahigh-energy production that sold out, or nearly so, some seventy-two venues in North America before recently casting off for distantshores. Throughout, Lambert louboutin pumpsand his band haverelied on Sennheiser 2000 series wireless personal monitors to inspire theirperformances with fidelity and RF-stability. The tour will continue throughSoutheast Asia, Hong Kong, Japan, Australia,New Zealand, and, finally, Europe christianlouboutin pumps before taking a well deserved break in advance of the holidays.

 

As thelongtime monitor engineer for Beyoncé and Solange, veteran sound engineer andcompany co-owner (Rowe Media Pro) James Berry is no stranger to Sennheiser RFtechnology. Berry insisted on Sennheiser wireless christianlouboutin 2010 personal monitors when he was hired on as monitor engineer forLambert (with no allowance for an RF tech!). “I’ve been using Sennheiserwireless technology almost exclusively for the past seven years,” he said.“With Sennheiser, the RF is in the bag. I power the units up during set-up,then scan and sync. That’s it. I don’t have to louboutin outletworry about theears for the rest of the day, which is great, because I have a million otherthings that require my attention.”

 

Lambert’sproduction consists of ten wireless personal monitors: one for the starhimself, four for techs, four for the band (one drummer, a bass player, aguitarist, and a keyboard player) and one spare. Five Sennheiser SR 2050 IEMdual channel transmitters with PC-control connect the outputs from Berry’s Digidesign Venuechristianlouboutin outlet console to their recipients via Sennheiser EK 2000 IEM belt packs.Berry uses Sennheiser’s scanning feature tofind uncluttered frequencies and then uses its “stressed-monitor-engineer-proof”,as Berrycalls it, sync feature to assign the appropriate frequencies to the belt packs.He uses Sennheiser’s Wireless Systems Manager software to keep tabs on the RFrig during the performance.

 

“Ithink Sennheiser has always been ahead of the curve with wireless technology,and the new 2000-series ears christianlouboutin classic take things one step further,” Berry said. “They have a remarkably clean highend. As a result, I’m able to forgo the high-end boost that used to be astandard part of the way I do things. That makes the overall volume lower, andAdam’s happy to run at ‘six’ where he previously would have been at ‘eight’ orso. In the short term, the change puts all the musicians a bit more in ‘thepocket’ from night to night. In the long term, it will help save theirhearing.”

 

As thetour was heading prix sac a mainoverseas, Berry reported that the Sennheiser system had performedflawlessly in North America. Given his wealthof experience and the system’s agility, he anticipates no issues on the otherside of the world. But should the unexpected arise, Berry is confident that Sennheiser’s globalsupport network would coin counter come swiftly to his aid, as it has in thepast.mln
