Audio will be mostly provided by AV.


There will be a series of wired mics for the judges (4?), plus at least one wireless mic for the Main Presenter (maybe two actually).  
Audio equipment will be mostly provided by AV.
Additionally, the backstage presenter will have a wired Mic, plus a mic or two for interviewees.
 
There will be a series of lapel mics for the judges (4), plus at one wireless mic for the "Brucie" Presenter (Luke).
 
Additionally, the backstage "Tess" presenter (Fionna) will have a wireless Mic, plus a mic or two for interviewees. This will require AV's "Gig rig" backstage as the installed wireless mics don't reach the backstage area (the screen has a metal mesh behind it). If the gig rig isn't available or it all falls to pieces, we can fall back to wired mics for the backstage set.


Audio will also come from VT PC for VT playback, plus some music source (cd player?) for the dancers.
