Why do singers wear headphones when singing? Did it work?

Usually, when we watch major parties and many singing programs, we will find that singers wear a small earphone when performing, including concerts of many stars. They also wear headphones all the time. So what is the function of this headset?

In order to listen to the accompaniment clearly and ensure the high quality of the concert.

When a singer listens to music accompaniment with headphones in the recording studio, the pre-recorded accompaniment music cannot be recorded by the microphone. At present, the condenser microphone used in the recording studio is extremely sensitive, and even the slightest sound can be recorded. So the recording studio should use closed headphones. Then everyone outside the studio wears professional monitor headphones, which belongs to another field.

You need one ear to listen to the accompaniment more clearly, which makes it easier to grasp the beat and avoid the embarrassment of forgetting words. No one can guarantee that he will forget the words. In order to achieve a better singing effect, it is difficult for singers to accurately hear the accompaniment music in the live environment, especially in the open space, and the sound transmission will be more disturbed and there will be some delays, which will seriously affect the singer's performance, so wearing headphones is entirely to ensure the high quality of the concert.

In order to convey the request to the singer backstage.

Generally speaking, on the stage, a singer should create a very good effect, not only by singing well, but also by interacting with the audience, or what needs to be told to the backstage singer, which can be achieved through the deafness, and at the same time, the deafness can also reduce noise.

Live, concert and performance all need a kind of equipment called behind the ears.

Hearing loss is the jargon of the host industry, which means that the host wears headphones on his ears when hosting a program. The director can instruct the host to arrange the program through headphones, such as arranging advertisements, admitting guests, correcting the host's slip of the tongue and so on. For a singer, the function of hard of hearing is to listen to the accompaniment, or to identify whether he is out of tune. In essence, it is still an earphone, but it is convenient for singers to do in-ear design when performing live, which is different from that used in the recording studio.

The sound recorded by the microphone also needs to be distinguished. The scene all points to the microphone, and the receiving range is different. Then, for singers, they often can't hear their own voices when singing live, so singers need to listen to whether their voices are out of tune or out of tune. The singer can't hear the accompaniment or the accompaniment is delayed, and the accompaniment is sent to the singer's ear at the same time. The venue of the performance is not a small room, so the sound will be delayed (that is, singers often hear the accompaniment too late) or deteriorated, so the accompaniment will be sent to the singers' ears to ensure that they will not sing at the wrong time or out of tune.

We often see singers bring their ears back and often fiddle with their hands when singing, which is normal. Finally, everything stems from the singer's efforts to present himself to us at his best, so he can also show a kind of respect for the audience to a certain extent, which is a professional performance. Therefore, it is really necessary for them to wear headphones. But when interacting on the spot, they will take off their headphones and listen to the cheers of the audience. So when you sing, you shout, but the singer can't hear you!
