The World´s First Sennheiser G3 Crystal Roc Microphone… and the Winner Is!

Leona Lewis, Alexandra Burke, Rhianna, The Brit Awards, the Pussycat Dolls, George Michael and Peter Butler.

The connection?
They are all now the proud owners of customised Sennheiser Crystal Roc microphones.

Should Peter Butler’s name not be as familiar as some of the others, we should explain that he’s the recent winner of Sennheiser’s G3 Series launch competition and recipient of the first ever customised G3 microphone – a SKM 535 handheld.

Peter heads up AC Audio, a division of  A.C. Entertainment Technologies in Leeds and won his customised G3 after completing Sennheiser’s on-line G3 Series training and entering the free draw.
A.C. Entertainment Technologies is a leading one-stop provider of professional equipment and related services to the entertainment industry.

Receiving his competition prize from Sennheiser’s Jay Cresswell, Peter Butler said:
“I’m obviously delighted to have won such a unique prize. I think it looks fantastic. I know how in demand Sennheiser’s Crystal Roc microphones are and to have the first G3 version is indeed an honour.  At A.C. Entertainment we value our relationship with Sennheiser and we look forward to working with them to make G3 a huge success.”

Asked what he would be doing with his blinged SKM 535 G3, Peter said;
“I’m going to be using it of course! I’m look forward to adding a bit of… sparkle to my vocals!”
