Labrinth is a regular Sennheiser user and played a major part in the company's Masters of Sound competition earlier this year. Designed to encourage the best original up-and-coming songwriters, the Masters of Sound winner, Claire-Louise Rossi, gained valuable experience by spending time with Labrinth in his studio.
The tour took in Academy-sized venues and included eight sets of Sennheiser ew 300 G3 in-ear monitors, an AC3200 IEM combiner, two ew 572 G3 guitar systems and a pair of ew 500-935 handheld microphone systems.
Monitor engineer Ross McGroggan has been using Sennheiser equipment for a number of years and he was more than happy to continue.
"The reliability and sound quality of Sennheiser equipment are second to none," he says. "I've never had a single problem with their in-ear systems and the 935 is an excellent microphone. It's really the best suited to our application - very durable and you can get a lot out of it before feedback."
