Stage Door Events' Seamless Audio Production With Sennheiser, Allen & Heath and RCF
Stage Door Events is a renowned events company based in Newcastle, specialising in comprehensive production services, including sound, lighting, video walls and staging, for theatre shows and festivals across the country.
One of their projects involved providing full production support for a theatre show titled LMXT - The Little Mix Experience. The client made it clear they wanted their performance to look top-notch with professional audio solutions.
Working to this brief, Stage Door Events purchased various Sennheiser, Allen & Heath, and RCF equipment. These brands were chosen for their reliable reputation and ability to easily streamline workflow.
Firstly, the performers were supplied with six wireless Sennheiser e965 microphones as part of an EW500 G4 system. The mixer setup included an SQ6 with Dante expansion and two DT168 stage boxes. The SQ6’s flexibility and high-quality signal path made it a natural choice for feeding six Sennheiser G4 Wireless IEM systems so the performers were able to hear back what they were singing accurately.
For FOH PA, the SQ6 fed ten RCF HDL10-As and four RCF SUB 8004-ASs. This combination provided a fast and easy-to-set-up system that packed a high-quality punch with a two-way digital amp and DSP processing in each speaker and 18” subwoofers.
The team at Stage Door Events specifically found the Allen & Heath SQ6 to be the perfect fit for the show. They used 26 channels of multi-track through the Dante Virtual Sound card, along with an additional 16 channels for the band and six wireless microphones. In total, they used 48 inputs and 24 outputs, running stereo monitors and sending recording feeds through Dante.
The show was a success due to the strategic choices in equipment, Stage Door Events' expertise and Leisuretec’s strong stockhold of equipment to supply the event. 'Allen & Heath for the win! Thank you Leisuretec for supplying us with this kit, A*,' said Stage Door Events Director Liam O’Brien.
