International. In 2009 the vocalist of Accept decided to reform the metal band, which was so successful in the 80's, recovering his fans from that time as well as achieving new followers. They are currently touring around the world, using Sennheiser's sound systems for their live performances.
The decision to continue with the brand of sound equipment that had accompanied the band a few decades ago, was in charge of the room engineer and now also production manager, Frank Trzaskowski, who maintains that Sennheiser equipment is a fundamental element in the live platform.
The key to the distinctive sound of the guitar in 1970's was the version of the MD 421 microphones. On stage they use a 4x12 speaker booth with two microphones, an MD 421 II and an e906. The latter allows you to translate the total pitch of your unique sound in the PA, while the 421 accurately reproduces transients.
Other microphones they use are references e904, e906 and MD 421 on drums, another MD 421 on bass by Peter Baltes, e935 on backing vocals and an SKM 2000 wireless transmitter with an MMD 935 capsule combined with an EM 2050 receiver for Mark Tornillo's lead vocals.
"I love using the e904 on the timpani, it makes them sound very fresh, open, big and bright. Apart from the sound quality, reliability is always an important reason for me when using Sennheiser products."
