The primary advantage of renting rather than buying audio equipment is that a rental can dramatically reduce your capital outlay. In addition, a rental eliminates the ongoing need for costly maintenance and storage. Third, so far as a rental uses professional trained technicians and engineers, you benefit from a high degree of reliability and professional event management. As part of our service, you can hire our sound engineers to arrive on site to set-up and monitor the audio equipment both before and during your event. They will also pack-up and return the rental equipment when your event is completed. We provided superior conference services and sound equipment for more than few years and continues to serve corporate clientele both in all Chicago area. We also offer speaker rentals on a lease to buy option that allows you to field test equipment solutions before making a major purchase. Call us to learn more about this and other options. Our professional audio engineers will be glad to put together a proposal for your next event. Our technical staff can recommend customized solutions for virtually any event no matter how large or small. Our extensive clientele includes companies, not-for-profit organizations and government agencies.
Visionary speakers appear for standing-room-only panel discussions, presentations and main stage speaking events.
Stage Technology manufactures heavy duty extension cables, two-fers, three-fers and quad boxes to your specifications using stage pin, twistlock of edison plugs - or we can supply everything you need to make your own. Choosing a dimmer system is a complex process. As a distributor for many brands of dimmers and controllers, we are able to evaluate your needs and work with you to select equipment that fits your purpose. In this process, we take into account your immediate requirements, long term goals and, of course, budgetary concerns. First we listen. Then we proceed. If you know very little about the equipment, we can work with you. If you are an expert, we can work with you.
Intelligent Lights, or Moving Lights, contain some method of animating the beam of light on 'X' and 'Y' axis accomplished by either a moving mirror or moving yoke. They also allow the color and beam definition to be altered electronically and operate under USITT DMX512 control protocol. Moving Lights can be operated by any theatrical console utilizing the standard DMX512 protocol. In this category, you will find Intelligent lights by Martin, High End, Technilux and others.
And we always appreciate the opportunity.

Some helpful clues:
Feedback is caused by the mic picking up its own sound from the speaker. This may be because the speaker is facing the mic, or because the sound is bouncing around the walls and stage back into the mic. Sound is made up of many frequencies. This is why feedback sounds like a steady 'tone'. When feedback starts you hear a 'ringing' sound at that frequency, usually enough warning to act fast and pull the level back. If you let it continue it grows to become a shrill tone that can reach maximum PA level if left unchecked. It can be quite effective in clearing the hall!
FAQ
question:
And the last question: What about the Monitor level. Can I determine the maximum level by muting the master mix and try at what level the setup begins to feedback over the monitors? Or does someone know better ways?
answer:
In general the mix in the front-of-house should not affect the feedback situation if the mics are behind the PA speakers. Ringing out the feedback in the monitors can be done with the mains muted. For monitors, give the performers only minimum of aux signals they ask for to keep stage volumes and feedback at bay. Good, flat response monitors and and mics are key to feedback reduction. Also, proper aiming of mics and monitors assists in feedback reduction.
I'm new to the "live sound" terminology. Indeed, the sound man is FOH. There is no stage sound man.
There are changes in volume levels that occur because of singers/instrumentalists changing instruments, dynamics, etc... stuff that changes even after a thorough sound check.
The engineer should be mixing the house so that it sounds right no matter what the band is doing (within reason, of course). He should also understand what changes need to be made in the monitor mix when, for instance, the acoustic guitar player who's just played finger style picks up his bagpipes and puts them in front of his guitar mic. This is why you have (in order of effectiveness) rehearsals with a sound system and engineer, a sound check before the show, a set list with cues where changes to the mix will be required, and an engineer who's paying attention. When something is blasting out in the mix, the engineer shouldn't need to be told by a musician on stage to turn it down.
some advices on stage sound:
using isolating Sennheiser HD-280 headphones because the stage volume can get out of control
This is a problem and it's one that sould be solved. When the stage volume gets out of control, the house sound suffers both acoustically and because the musicians get distracted and aren't playing as well as they could. Headphones aren't the solution, unless everyone is wearing them (which puts the stage volume well under control).
planar speakers use different methodologies to achieve their results.
For example in my home speakers, ML CLS IIs, there are no crossovers because there is only one membrane. All of this is visible, as is the fact that when force air hits a certain part of the membrane, certain tones are given off, sort of like the well known effect of "playing glasses or bottles" that produce different tones because of their different volumes. In this regard, electrostatics in particular are often held up as being superior at the microdynamics end of the continuum.
I presume that the very low mass of these speakers also has something to do with this, just as it effects the perceived transient response of instruments such plucked guitar strings, drums, and in gerneral the sound reeproduced by most percussive instruments, including the piano, of course.
That said, I know from both visual inspection and reading some of the company's literature that the energized membrane is actually divided into 12 sections (10 along the main vertical array and 2 full length sections running the total 48" length of the panels) which are designed to handle different portions of the frequency spectrum, and what the company refers to as some.
I don't profess to be an expert on how speakers technically replicate fortissimos or pianissimos, which are often associated with different instruments (e.g. I don't think that anybody would claim that a piccolo can play as loudly as a piano), but obviously most speaker evaluations that I have read to consider the ability of the speaker to handle what are often called microdynamics (small level signals) as well as macrodynamics (largre level signals) as part of their overall evaluation.type of "damping material" is used between them.
