Fernando Perdomo
“This is a genius idea. Never more do I have to worry about the mic moving and my sound totally changing. This is a failsafe solution for speaker cabinet miking in studio and on stage. For a performing musician never to have to worry about a club never having enough mics or mics that work properly and that dreaded mic draped over your amp sound.”
Josh Elliot
“I have been touring with Samsystems Integral for a while now, and our FOH engineers love it. I can really hear the difference in my in-ear monitors. There’s no hassle, no EQ to worry about. Just plug in and play for the perfect consistency.”
Russell Marsden
“I’m currently using it live….alongside the conventional mike-on-a-stand method.”
Gil Norton
“The SamSystems Integral will make life so much easier live and in the studio.”
James Beck
“For both of my roles as a professional musician and sound engineer, the benefits for using the Samsystems Integral miking system are incredible. During a recent 30 date European tour, Integral proved itself, I’ve never heard anything so true and clear, the sweet spot every time. An amazing product.’”
Lez Patterson
“The INTEGRAL Close Miking System makes my job as a sound engineer so much easier. I don’t have to waste time rigging mike stands, so band set up and turnaround times are much quicker.
It drastically reduces overspill, and when fitted to a guitar cab or combo, the sweet spot is a constant that you take on tour. The separation and clarity of the guitar sound is superb.”
