Hi guys. I’m in the middle of being the sound #2 at a pantomime in the Marlowe Theatre, Canterbury during this winter period and I came across this article from Shure:

It details the difference between an in- house engineer over a touring engineer and is a great read for those starting out in the world of live sound. I’m currently doing both right now and I agree with all the points there. There’s certainly exciting challenges in both fields as well as some downsides. Which side of the fence do you sit?
