Quick answer
What this page settles
Compare the work behind the microphone, not the live hours alone. Use this page to create an active expo floor with clear stage cues that cut through booth noise. The working record is demo schedule, VIP route, footfall waves and announcement points; the main failure to prevent is competing stage noise and crowds missing unclear cues.
