Latest headlines: Tom Kehr on wired microphones, plus news from PK Sound, Sony, Sennheiser and more
I quite enjoyed Tom Kehr’s most recent column. In “Nothing Beats a Wire,” he writes about some of the good things about using a wired mic. In city council chambers, houses of worship, etc., sometimes you just don’t need all that. What I mean (I’m paraphrasing Tom here) is that if you don’t have to fight the frequency band wars and the other battle (replacing batteries) … maybe don’t? A good, wired mic and a long cable go a long way. (HAHA I’m very funny don’t forget that.)
Anyway. Enjoy the rest of this newsletter! I’m really obsessed with PK Sound’s robotic sound system right now. You’ll definitely want to check that out. And we have some upcoming live events (scroll down scroll down) you’ll definitely want to join those. One is about creating the ultimate meeting room experience, the other is a preview of everything happening at Commercial Integrator Expo (co-located with CEDIA Expo in Denver, Colorado, Sept. 5-7. But our preview is July 30 at 2 p.m. EDT.) |
