Blitz Take Superstar to Europe

Blitz Communications' sound division, TP Sound, has been contracted to take the touring production of Jesus Christ Superstar on the continental leg of its European tour in January 2000. Front-of-house control for the production is from a 56-channel Amek recall console, running Showtime automation software. A Yamaha ProMix 01 is used as an effects submixer, while effects playback is sourced from a pair of Denon DN990R MiniDisc players. 38 channels of Sennheiser EM 1046 UHF receivers are used, visually linked to the FOH position by the company's remote monitoring system. Cast members are fitted with Sennheiser's MKE2 and DPA Microphones' 4060 head-worn mics, with SK50 beltpack transmitters.EAW's KF300 full-range cabinets provide the reinforcement, along with a pair of KF850s and four SB625 subs, with amplification from Yamaha and Crown. JBL Control 1s are used for effects and delays.
