A.C. Entertainment Technologies' (AC-ET) Audio division has supplied a Shure UHF-R wireless microphone system to Chichester Festival Theatre in West Sussex, UK.
The venue is one of the UK's highest profile producing and receiving theatres, renowned for a diverse range of productions including musicals, comedies, classic drama and innovative new writing.
AC-ET were approached when the theatre was in the process of evaluating the leading audio brands in its search for a radio mic system, and also one that was channel 38 compliant ahead of the 'digital switchover'.
After thorough testing, the theatre took delivery of 16 Shure UR4D dual channel receivers, the unit being a 1U 19in rack mounting device with two receivers and 32 UR1M body pack transmitters. A tiny 6cm in size, the transmitters are specifically designed for theatres, opera performances, etc., and for easy concealment in costumes.
It also purchased two Shure UR2 SM58 hand-held transmitter mics, which include the SM58 capsule, with all equipment supplied complete with distribution amps, antennas and cables.
AC-ET's Audio division provides a high level of specialist service for premium brands including Shure, and has been raising people's awareness of the digital switchover and how they can prepare for it.
Shure's flagship UHF-R product has been a popular choice for those gearing up to the switchover in 2012.
