Old Lyme, Conn.– July 6, 2011: Audio specialist Sennheiser continues to bring invaluable broadcast technology experience to audio students through its collaboration with major sports broadcasters and higher education institutions. David Polster, a music production major in the School of Media Arts and Studies at Ohio University in Athens, spent three days last month shadowing Fred Aldous, a veteran audio consultant and senior mixer for FOX Sports during the NASCAR Coca-Cola 600 in Charlotte, NC.

Polster’s onsite education experience began on Friday, May 27, just two days before the main event. more
