Veteran performers Donny and Marie Osmond have been the headlining act at the Flamingo Hotel since September 2008, and the show has proved to be a huge success, with the duo set to continue their run through at least October 2012. Both performers use Audio-Technica's Artist Elite 5000 Series UHF Wireless System.
Sax, trombone and trumpet are handled by the 3000 Series Wireless System with ATM350cW Cardioid Condenser Clip-On Microphone. Also used are the Artist Elite AE3000 Cardioid Condenser Instrument Microphone for snare and the ATM450 Cardioid Condenser Instrument Microphone for hi-hat, drum overheads and extra-percussion overheads.
Donny Osmond stated, "It's great to be back in Vegas at the Flamingo with Marie. The room sounds absolutely amazing. We've even received compliments from audience members about how clear our voices sound. Great mics are the key to that, and Audio-Technica delivers."
"On the Donny and Marie Show we use A-T mics on almost everything, because these mics give us the big, rich sound we are looking for," stated Michael Martin, FOH Engineer for the show. "Technical support is excellent. The RF mics work every bit as well as, if not better than, mics from A-T's competition. Also, the M50 headphones are amazing."
