Engineer Wayne Pauley continued his run as the hardest-working FOH guy on the road, taking advantage of a short gap between separate world tours with Celtic Woman and The High Kings to man the faders for all five acts on the month-long extravaganza.
Pauley comments, "I've always loved how the Milo sounds on the Celtic Woman material, but I've got to say it's a lot of fun hearing what it does for that classic 1980s drum machine kick and snare. It's as powerful as it is nuanced, and the amount of headroom is amazing."
Provided by East Rutherford, NJ-based Masque Sound, the Meyer Sound system comprised two hangs of ten Milo and two Milo 120 line array loudspeakers per side. Six UPA-1P loudspeakers covered front-fill, and a Galileo loudspeaker management system handled system drive and processing.
For Pauley, mixing five bands in a single night made for a long but satisfying day of work. "I'm having so much fun on this tour," he says. "These bands are in top form, and it's just a blast to hear these tunes again."
