Blossoms FOH Engineer about the KSM8 Dualdyne Microphone
Über KSM8:
Love the KSM8's. They have a really warm smooth response and need very little EQ
Blossoms Tour Manager & Guitar Tech about their Shure PSM 1000 In-Ear Monitorong System
Blossoms Tour Manager & Guitar Tech about their Shure PSM 1000 In-Ear Monitorong System
Über PSM 1000:
The PSM 1000’s are mega. We run all the band and crew on wireless IEM’s so we needed something that could hack everything we could throw at it.
These more than stand up to the job. From a crew perspective, these allow us to have a crystal clear live audio and access to all band members mixes via “Cue Mode”, so as soon as there are any technical problems on stage, we can hear it straight away. We can also silent line check & have great communication to FOH which is a great help when time is an issue at festivals etc. There’s also no drop out in signal when we’re running around, which is something we found happened with the old system we were using. The band love them and so do the in-house techs - they're so easy to use!

Blossoms FOH Engineer about their Beta 98AMP/C
Über BETA 98AMP/C:
The Beta 98AMP's have a great sound on the drums. The attack response is superb. I no longer have to push up 4-5k on my EQ any more to get the attack I'm after.
Blossoms Guitarist, Guitar Tech and FOH Engineer about the KSM313/NE Ribbon Microphone
Blossoms Guitarist, Guitar Tech and FOH Engineer about the KSM313/NE Ribbon Microphone
Über KSM313/NE:
I'm very particular about how my guitar sounds from a FOH perspective and also, very importantly, from an IEM perspective too.
I went from using various stereo mic rigs to just the KSM313 ribbon mic alone...
It perfectly captures the guitar's & amp's individual tones simultaneously without getting lost or altered in any way.
Essentially it makes my setup sound EXACTLY how I want it to with very little mixing. The mic just sounds incredibly powerful in a charming, realistic fashion. Not to mention how aesthetically pleasing it is!
Über KSM313/NE:
Highest quality guitar mic i’ve ever heard, it does the job of 2 'normal' mics. In fact, it does the job better. Looks great too!
Über KSM313/NE:
The KSM313 is amazing! It give us the really thick warm guitar sound were after on Josh's lead guitar!
It does what the old dynamic and condenser mics did together and them some! The second I first heard the SKM313 I instantly fell In love with it!
