Monte was a fixture with Electro-Voice teaching at EV Academies and was one of their most ardent evangelists.   I will miss him greatly.


I would like to share a few photos of Monte that I have taken over the years at various EV functions.

Rental demand has risen dramatically and I would like to convey our thanks to all of you for helping to spread the word. 

...1 - Due to the increase in demand we have been running low on some items so I strongly suggest that you reserve what you need as far in advance as possible.


...6 - Gear listed in our production inventory is not included in this sale.


7 - Please help us spread the word on our rental prices.   The more we rent the longer we will be able to keep price down.


We are very close to being out of gear for several dates in October so call NOW.   We will do our best to accommodate everybody but our inventory is limited.


...Since DVD movie rentals have taken over VHS tape rentals many have forgotten the old addage "Please Be Kind&ndash;Rewind".   You are getting a great deal on your rental so please take the time to carefully rewind all of the cables upon return. <img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/careysound/nrHu/~4/iAi0HaLAf6w" height="1" width="1"/>]]></content:encoded><feedburner:origLink>http://www.careysound.com/NewsBlog/files/2cb6eb4a3f7d2710f7167b5329f34edd-403.html#unique-entry-id-403</feedburner:origLink></item><item><title>Pet Peeve</title><dc:creator>CareySound</dc:creator><category>SoundMan</category><dc:date>2009-09-21T01:47:37-04:00</dc:date><link>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/careysound/nrHu/~3/xWjuyurUnQk/080f099b74b6aedf5617077417fc01d1-399.html</link><guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.careysound.com/NewsBlog/files/080f099b74b6aedf5617077417fc01d1-399.html#unique-entry-id-399</guid><content:encoded><![CDATA[All I wanted to do is relax and watch a little TV.   So, I settled into  my easy chair and tuned into the season premier of Office - perfect. ...  Next up &mdash; a new show called Community and right in the opening scene I see this-


...Why does Hollywood insist on using feedback to let us know the actors are using a sound system.   Next time you watch a show that includes a PA system listen to see if it don't all squeal when someone steps up to the mic.   Isn't it enough of a clue they are using a microphone that a sound system is being used, do we really have to hear it howl, are we really that stupid.    When you see a scene with a car you don't see a cloud of blue smoke and hear the engine backfire.   When someone uses a sink as a prop they don't have it spewing water all over the place. 

...As if the feedback in this clip wasn't bad enough, they switch to the operator who is seen trying to adjust the system with a mixer that NOTHING IS PLUGED INTO, not even a power cord.


It's really sad that Hollywood can't come up with another way to portray the use of a sound system in a scene other than the use of an inept soundman. <img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/careysound/nrHu/~4/xWjuyurUnQk" height="1" width="1"/>]]></content:encoded><feedburner:origLink>http://www.careysound.com/NewsBlog/files/080f099b74b6aedf5617077417fc01d1-399.html#unique-entry-id-399</feedburner:origLink></item><item><title>What If...</title><dc:creator>CareySound</dc:creator><category>Digital News</category><dc:date>2009-09-17T15:43:55-04:00</dc:date><link>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/careysound/nrHu/~3/Kcjpzhcj65U/41308e524fc32bb4d970e7a7ba29ca93-398.html</link><guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.careysound.com/NewsBlog/files/41308e524fc32bb4d970e7a7ba29ca93-398.html#unique-entry-id-398</guid><content:encoded><![CDATA[The M-380 is a complete 48 channel digital mixing system compacted into a rackmountable footprint.

And ten years ago we were one of the first to use moving lights for theater productions totally replacing the use of traditional  fixtures.


Leading the newest trend in lighting is the use of Light Emitting Diodes (LED's) as a light source and new improved optics for moving lights that provide for huge energy savings.   Witness the energy savings in our use of LED's in the recently refurbished Dillard Auditorium at Winston-Salem State University replacing a 100,000 watt system with a 6,000 watt system.   In addition to the energy savings they will NEVER have to buy light gells again because of the built in Red Green Blue (RGB) color mixing produces all of the colors of the rainbow without gells.   And let's not forget that even with EVERY light on there is no heat radiated from the LED's so there is no more "performing under hot lights."

...Thinking it best not upset our fearless leader in his current condition we felt it better to just go with the flow.   We decided to, effective immediately, roll back the prices on all of our rental gear by 50% until the end of the year to get into the spirit of the &lsquo;70&rsquo;s&rsquo; and buy some time to get SoundMan to the clinic  to get his clock reset.   We also decided to reduce our weekly rental rate to twice the daily rate so we could get a little Vulcan action while we were at it. 


So quick, before SoundMan comes to his senses, tell everybody you know that it&rsquo;s rental SALE time at CareySound and our silly competitors still think its 2009.


...All rental gear is 50% OFF untill the end of the year including packages AND the weekly rate has been reduced to twice the daily rate. ...  We will still take reservations however everyone must prepay 100% of the rental and NO cancelation refunds will be given no matter how sad your story is.   LATE FEES will be fully enforced.   This applies to all customers and replaces our old Key Club discounts and cross vender rentals.   These special rates apply ONLY to the gear listed in the rental section and does not apply to our already low production rates.
