Germany - During the recent tour by the group PUR, one tool played a key role in communications: the Telex BTR-700. The Leonberg-based radio equipment specialists Bareither+Raisch was responsible for the communication between technicians during the recent tour by what is currently Germany's most successful pop group, Pur. The venues were 40 of the largest concert halls in Germany. Bareither+Raisch's most important behind-the-scenes weapon, according to Stefan Raisch, was the BTR-700 from Telex. When the tour was over, Raisch expressed his satisfaction with the performance of the system: "The BTR-700 provided perfect communication between the stage, FOH and the follow spot operators arranged in echelon behind the FOH, all of whom were a considerable distance apart. Quite aside from saving us the time and expense of setting up long cable runs, the BTR-700 impressed everyone - the PUR technicians included - with its ease-of-use."

The first gig in Sinsheim in mid October 2003 soon made clear that in XXL halls, an additional or alternative antenna solution would further enhance the quality of communication. With 25 years of experience in communications technology, the Bareither+Raisch technicians were able to design and implement - in a matter of days, fortunately - a new network capable of supporting dual antennae for both transmission and reception. As it turned out, two Telex omnidirectional emitters provided perfect converge for the FOH and follow-spot locations, whilst a pair of Telex ALP-450 directional antennae provided flawless and reliable coverage of the stage. Commented Raisch: "This tour proved once again that Telex is in a class of its own in wireless communication technology. The future belongs to the BTR-700!"
