Great article Mike, but yards and yards over my head. It's hard for me to keep up with some of your technical articles.

But here's a question. With all the wireless technology that keeps creeping into our everyday lives, how does this affect today;s sound stages? More and more musicians use wireless mikes, guitars, and whatever else can be wirelessly connected. Has this reduced some of their shocking experiences?

Yes, wireless mics and guitars do eliminate shock hazards. But you’re still at risk for shock if you touch a stage amp while standing on a damp stage outside. Plus a stage with an RPBG outlet can damage the mixing console.
