Synopsis

Concert Sound and Lighting Systems, 2ed takes the mystery out of equipment and set-up procedures for touring concert systems. Even someone who has never picked up an amp can learn the basic sound and lighting components and how they all work together in a safe and effective package that makes the most of the equipment at hand.


This book is divided evenly between sound and lighting systems, and each section concludes with an easy-to-follow discussion of the set-up procedure for a typical show. Nearly 100 drawings and photographs illustrate how to use the equipment properly. The appendixes provide electrical formulas, wiring information, sample checklists and safety procedures, and there is also a glossary of commonly used terms.

From the Publisher

The practical how-to illustrations teach the reader about the equipment, and this thoroughly updated edition will include new equipment such as radio microphones, in-ear monitoring, digital audio products and digital lighting products. The author also discusses new venues outside the traditional concert touring environment and applies the skills and technology to such diverse events as product launches, theatrical arena spectaculars and outdoor stadium productions. In addition to an introductory section on touring concerts, there are sections on sound systems and lighting systems and an explanation of how all the parts fit together to create a professional, safe, efficient show.
