Ringo Starr's All Starr Tour 2008

— Audio Analysts Provides New Yamaha T5n Amps for Ringo Starr's All Starr Tour —


Overview


 

This summer marks the tenth Ringo Starr’s All Starr outing, and includes returning All Starr members (in alphabetical order): Colin Hay, Billy Squier, Hamish Stuart and Edgar Winter, as well as first timers Gary Wright and Gregg Bissonette. The All Starr tour brings its chart-topping lineup to 31 cities in the U.S. and Canada, including New York, Boston, Chicago and Los Angeles. All of the All Starr artists complement Starr's musical style and share his message of peace and love. As Ringo said in a recent interview, "My live shows are a peace-and-love fest. That's my main promotion, really."

Starr's latest album “Liverpool 8” was released on January 15 by Capitol/EMI: on CD, digitally, and on USB wristband. His most personal release in years, Liverpool 8 is a journey through Ringo's storied life and career, and features some of his greatest songwriting to date. Liverpool 8 was co-produced and co-written with Dave Stewart, and its resounding message of peace and love will continue to resonate with All Starr audiences across the country as Ringo hits the road this summer for his first tour since 2006.

Aaron Goldstein-Mon.- Brian Bravido FOH Ringo Starr All Starrs

For close to 20 years, Audio Analysts of Colorado Springs, Colorado, has provided full audio production support for Ringo Starr tours. This year the All Starr monitor rig features a Yamaha PM5D digital console and 20 of the company's new T5n amplifiers. Manned by monitor engineer Aaron Goldstein and front of house engineer Brian Bravido, the monitor rig also boasts wedges, wedge cabinets, sub woofers, and three-way cabinets designed by Audio Analysts.

The T5n is a Versatile Performer


Ringo's Drum Amps

Leccese said the design of the rig was determined by the size of the band, and the musicians' needs. "We chose the T5n amp because it was the largest of the power amps and would be able to power all the different cabinets out on the tour," adds Leccese. "By keeping all the amps the same, you only have to stock one type of spare."

Light, Compact, Feature-packed, and Very Reliable

Goldstein is using a Yamaha PM5D at monitors based on Audio Analyst's previous experience with the band and their requirements. "Basically, this package makes the monitor rig light, compact, feature-packed and very reliable," notes Leccese.
