Live Sound Staff 04/11/11 02:23 PM, 0 CommentsThe Oak Ridge Boys are currently taking their unique country and gospel style on the road with the appropriately named The Boys Are Back 150-date North American tour in support of their latest recording release of the same name. The original group dates all the way back to 1945, founded as the Oak Ridge Quartet, and has seen a lot of changes over its six-plus decades. But the focus has always been richly textured vocals, with the current lineup consisting… View this story

Greg DeTogne 04/04/11 02:22 PM, 0 CommentsWith slow ticket sales and myriad other factors combining to halt the return of Lilith Fair last summer, Sarah McLachlan, one of Lilith’s original organizers, is still moving forward, as evidenced by her current Laws of Illusion concert tour. The size and scope of the tour has been scaled to fit within the confines of theatres and other venues seating from 2,000 to 3,500, leaving much smaller footprints on North America’s highways. In fact, all of the gear, the entire… View this story

Andy Wood 02/07/11 06:18 PM,Many professional audio manufacturers are now actively producing their own proprietary network connection and control systems, thus enabling users to create and control products within the audio chain. While not a particularly new concept (Crown, for example, started the trend in the 1990s with the IQ computer control system for its amplifiers), recent years have seen a plethora of new solutions. Therefore, to partner this article on interconnection options, here’s a brief overview on the control and distribution solutions currently… View this story

PSW Staff 12/10/10 02:20 PM, 0 CommentsAs Deep Purple continue their tour through Germany and France, their long-serving FOH engineer Gert Sanner has taken the opportunity to transfer his show mix from his Soundcraft Vi6 digital console to the smaller footprint of the new Vi1. An early adopter of the Vi6, Sanner was keen to move his show files to the Vi1 and prove the process in a real-world environment. “The purpose was to create show files that would work on any Vi console,” he stated,… View this story

PSW Staff 10/11/10 09:40 AM, 0 CommentsMichael Bolton chose a breathtaking venue for the only Italian date on his world tour: the amphitheatre at the “Vittoriale degli Italiani” (Shrine of Italian Victories). The venue overlooks Lake Garda (the largest in Italy) and was Italian poet Gabriele d’Annunzio’s favourite place and his home until his death. The US singer/songwriter – who has sold 53 million records, won six American Music Awards, two Grammys and even has a star on Hollywood’s Walk of Fame – will end an… View this story

PSW Staff 10/06/10 02:00 PM, 0 CommentsNorah Jones concluded her recent North American tour at one of her favorite venues, the Greek Theatre in Berkeley. It was a fitting finale for the 48 Meyer Sound loudspeakers carried on the cross-country tour—more than 45 shows from Boston and New York City to San Diego. They completed their assignment roughly two miles from the factory where they were manufactured. At times it was a challenging but most of all satisfying odyssey for FOH engineer Brett Dicus and Spencer… View this story

Mark Frink 09/15/10 02:20 PM, 1 CommentRiding high on this year’s Best New Artist Grammy and in support of 2008’s double-platinum The Foundation and its half-dozen number one singles, Atlanta-based Zac Brown Band (ZBB) continues to sell out larger venues. I caught up with them at the end of an East Coast run of the “Breaking Southern Ground” tour for a sold-out show at Charlotte’s 19,000-capacity Verizon Wireless shed, supported by Jim Brammer’s Special Event Services (SES). Those unfamiliar with Zac Brown are quickly disarmed by… View this story
