T(x)hrough the woods
« on: September 20, 2021, 03:12:05 PM »

I just did a 2-day art festival music stage in the redwoods.
Fog-rained saturday (everything got wet) and lovely yesterday.

The promoter had a line of remote speakers a couple hundred feet away through the woods.
We set up a Senny ew300IEM for tx with a paddle at the stage, aimed roughly at a Senny ew100 rx with a paddle on top of one of the remote speakers.  Then hard wired between the three remotes.
It worked almost perfectly, with occasional dropouts until I aimed the paddles better.

It's fun when stuff work out.

I've used a Sennheiser IEM transmitter to either a body pack receiver or an EW receiver many times. My IEM systems probably get as much use or more for remote audio use then actual IEM use.

Now to just get a gig in the redwood forest!

Nice!

How were the remote speakers powered?

This was at Old Mill Park in Marin, which is an urban park.  Stage had on-site power and the remotes were along the street passing through the park, with breaker boxes available.
