Sennheiser Sound Academy to Host Two-Day Live Production Workshop in Anaheim Sennheiser Live Production Sound Academy (LPSA) will once again be held this year in Anaheim and will take place prior to the NAMM Show, January 19-22, Anaheim, California. Due to what the company says was the overwhelming success of last year's event, the live sound workshop has been extended to two days and will take place at the Anaheim Marriott. The workshop will cover the skills needed to successfully engineer both large and small live productions -- including required elements for planning, configuring, and operating a large-scale PA system. The course content is designed for a wide range of attendees including venue engineers, musicians, promoters, production managers, employees of audio manufacturers, service providers, students interested in sound and acoustics, or anyone else interested in live production. Once again, Sennheiser will feature special guest instructor Robert Scovill -- an industry veteran who has mixed over 3,000 events during his 30-year live sound and recording career. Also in the lineup are Kevin Madigan (Crosby, Stills & Nash, The Smashing Pumpkins, Lucinda Williams), Marty Garcia (U2, Kelly Clarkson, Shakira, Zac Brown) and Raphael Alkins aka Raffie (Ricky Martin, Lionel Richie, Kenny G). Sennheiser's own cast of audio veterans, including Chris Spahr, Kent Margraves, Eric Reese and Joe Ciaudelli, will also be on hand. The event will be held January 17-18, from 9am-5pm at the Anaheim Marriott, 700 W. Convention Way.The cost is $299 per day or $498 for both days. Registration rate includes a continental breakfast, lunch, and workshop materials and a special group dinner on Tuesday, January 17.
