What are the challenges when mixing audio for a major touring comedian like Matt Rife?
Showtime Sound President Scott Tydings regularly brings 42 years of experience as an FOH Engineer to the U.S. top comedy tours. He entrusts his team and L-Acoustics systems to create an engaging and entertaining performance every night.
“It’s not about the SPL I can achieve - it’s about complete and absolute coverage. It’s also crucial to sound as natural as possible as if the artist is right in front of you no matter where you are in the arena.”
