Sennheiser Sound Academy
Puchong, Malaysia – On 21st July 2016, Acoustic & Lighting System (A&L) together with Sennheiser conducted a wireless microphone training session for the public. The Sennheiser Sound Academy initiated by Sennheiser was designed for the public to gain a better understanding of the wired and wireless microphone system operation. Held at A&L’s seminar room in Puchong, the training saw a group of 55 participants coming from various industries and schools.
The training was led by none other than Sennheiser’s Project Manager, Herman Suparman. Herman who has years of experience in microphone systems shared his knowledge through 9 intensive topics, designed specifically for the training. The training lasted for 3 hours covering theoretical topics such as Chain of Transmission, Type of Transmitters, Radio Frequency, Antennas and Booster, Importance of Cables, Splitter Characteristic, Type of Receivers, True Diversity and Intermodulation. “It was a very informational training session, even though I have learned some of the topics before but it was like a refreshers course. I learned some particular areas that I overlooked,” commented one of the participants. Throughout the training session, participants wrote notes on their mobile phone or notebooks, as Herman provided examples and explanation for various parts in the topics.
Aside from the theoretical training, Herman also provided the participants a practical training session giving them the opportunity to experience real life situation of setting up a wireless microphone system. 4 participants were selected and paired randomly to setup the system from scratch. As participants setup the system, Herman provided advices and guidance making sure they understand the process of setting up the system. “It was a great, there were times I needed Herman to guide me through the pairing up of microphone to the receivers,” responded one of the participants who had the chance to experience the practical session.
“It was definitely something we enjoyed doing,” commented Rain, A&L’s Marketing Coordinator & Event Planner. “The outcome of the training session was great. We received an overwhelming response for the training session. We were glad we prepared a video live feed that connects to the second room for participants who did not manage to get a seat in the seminar room,” continued Rain. “We hope to have more of such events, allowing the public to learn more on not only Sennheiser products but to gain more knowledge on operating an audio system,” replied Rain.
