| Musician Monitors and Mixers |
Musicians are subject to hearing damage as an occupational hazard. (In Europe,
hearing protection for professional musicians is mandatory!)Historically musicians used wedge monitors to project the sound they were producing back at themselves so they could hear what the audience was hearing.
Today, though, most musicians use in-ear isolation earphones (called musician monitors when used to monitor the music they are making) which allow the musician to clearly hear his or her own sounds while also protecting the musician's hearing from the often dangerously loud amplifier system used to project the performance to a large audience.
The best musician monitors are custom molded to fit that particular musician's unique ears. Running a close second is a growing number of off-the-shelf monitors that provide a semi-custom fit through the use of interchangeable foam or silicone tips.
For our extensive selection of earphones suitable for the most demanding
professional monitoring applications, please see these departments:
TIP: If you are not ready to shell out for the high price of full custom in-ear monitors, you can buy just about any off the shelf model and we can then fit your earphones with a set of custom molds that will give you the perfect fit you crave.
Below you will find monitoring equipment used to provide a monitor feed to
the musicians during a performance.
