Live Sound Expo to Rock AES NYC

A quarter of all AES Convention attendees are involved in live sound, so this year’s event will feature the return of the Live Sound Expo (LSE), where experts share insight and advice on everything from installed sound to Broadway to touring sound.

New York, NY (August 5, 2015)—A quarter of all AES Convention attendees are involved in live sound, so this year’s event—the 139th AES International Convention, October 29 – November 1, 2015, at the Jacob Javits Center in New York City—will feature the return of the Live Sound Expo (LSE), where experts share insight and advice on everything from installed sound to Broadway to touring sound. Produced in association with Pro Sound News, it will address key topics such as how the changing state of wireless audio will affect professional users, how virtual sound checks and networked audio are combining to create a more efficient workflow for live sound engineers, and live sound console and microphone design and use.

This second edition of the AES Live Sound Expo follows its successful debut at last year’s AES Convention in L.A. This year, the LSE will be broken up topically across the three days, addressing important segments of Live Sound and Sound Reinforcement slated to include a “Broadway Day,” a “House of Worship Sound/Fixed Install Day,” and a “Tour Sound Day” – each with dedicated programs consisting of presentations and panels featuring industry leaders. Sponsors for the LSE include Cadac, Clear-Com, DiGiCo, DPA Microphones, EAW, L-Acoustics, Optocore, Sennheiser, Waves Audio and Yamaha.

Broadway Day (Friday, October 30)
is devoted to live sound in the theatrical environment, with topics slated to include Theatrical Vocal Miking; Wireless Issues for Live Theater: Broadway and Beyond; Theater Sound System Design and Optimization; Theatrical Console Automation; Networking For Theater; and Theatrical Sound Design.

The Word and Music: House of Worship Sound/Fixed Install Day (Saturday, October 31)
offers a range of HOW and venue installation presentations including topics such as Speech Intelligibility: Contributing Factors; Miking Grand Piano and Choirs; Mono vs Stereo vs LCR in HOW and Fixed-Install; IEM Fundamentals and Hearing Conservation; The Future of Wireless: Now What?; and Modern Digital Mixing Console Fundamentals: A Practical and Ergonomic Approach.

Tour Sound Day (Sunday, November 1)
will cover the latest in tour sound technologies and techniques, with presentations slated to include Virtual Sound Checks and Processing in a Networked Environment; Shed and Arena Loudspeaker Optimization: Pulling Big Shows Together; Choosing the Right Vocal Mic; and Talking with the Artist: Sharing the Vision.

“AES in New York was where I introduced a Live Sound Loudspeaker Networking Users Group in 1987 at the 83rd convention, and it has always been a destination for professional live sound, where it’s the only pro audio trade show to address standards and professional papers, while showcasing demo rooms and new products,” stated veteran live sound engineer, writer/editor and Live Sound Expo host Mark Frink. Adds AES executive director Bob Moses, “We like to say that if it’s about audio, it’s at AES, and with the success of the Live Sound Expo and similar initiatives, we feel that this is truer than ever.”
