What is a A2 Engineer [Audio Engineer]?

The A2 or Audio Technician assists the A1 (audio engineer) in the technical aspects of handling audio equipment backstage. They work closely with the A1 to ensure the live event production runs smoothly.

The Audio Technician is responsible for: providing and setting up presenter microphones, coordinating the frequencies used by wireless microphones, and managing the communication requirements of the crew. The A2 is usually found backstage monitoring the audio equipment. This position is recommended for larger meetings or events with multiple microphones.
