Professional Wireless Systems (PWS) has purchased the two Bel Digital BM-A1-64Dante monitoring units for use on its latest music awards show system in Miami.
A subsidiary of Masque Sound, PWS is a supplier and supporter of wireless systems for live and broadcast events, including the NFL Super Bowl, the Lollapalooza festival and the Latin Grammy Awards. The BM-A1-64Dante monitoring units are the first units to be issued.
‘We had an analogue monitoring system but it required us to either put a splitter in line or get a return feed from the main show splitter,’ explains PWS General Manager, Jim Van Winkle. ‘We had been looking for a way to monitor through Dante and we decided this box would be a good solution. We recently deployed the Bel monitors for the first time and everybody picked it up pretty quickly – and we’re very happy with it. We used both of our units on a recent Latin music awards show, one at the mic racks backstage for the lead RF engineer, and one on stage where the RF A2 can check a mic before handing it off to the talent.’
The BM-A1-64Dante is being used for monitoring all live mic feeds set up by PWS, including units from Sennheiser, Shure, AKG and Audio-Technica. ‘Being able to connect by Dante has streamlined our set-up time,’ Van Winkle reports. ‘The system is very easy to use and reliable. We plan on using these units on all of our large shows.’
