"With 'Frisky', we went for a similar vibe to 'Pass Out', but this time I just used a bass from my Roland JX3P, an old?school '80s keyboard."

Monitor engineer Ross McGroggan has been using Sennheiser equipment for a number of years and he was more than happy to continue to share, “The reliability and sound quality of Sennheiser equipment are second to none,” he says. “I’ve never had a single problem with their in-ear systems and the 935 is an excellent microphone. It’s really the best suited to our application - very durable and you can get a lot out of it before feedback."
