Live Sound
I have experience with digital and analogue mixers, both front of house (FOH) and monitors. Although I have worked on a few theatre shows, the bulk of my experience is with small venues (under 500 capacity) running FOH and monitors from a single desk.
Small Venue PA Hire
I have put together a system especially for smaller venues. It provides high quality sound with sufficient power for 100-200 people, depending upon the nature of the music. A key feature is minimising the floorspace and visual obstruction, maximising the space available and ensuring the audience can see the show rather than the PA.
A full range of modern and vintage stage vocal and instrument mics is available as well as DI boxes and stands.
Recording, Mixing & Mastering
Are you a solo artist? A duo? A band? Do you want a set of demo tracks? For solo and duo I can record you at my home. For bands I have access to a studio. You can choose to just take the raw tracks, or I will mix and master for distribution as single tracks, or matched so as to work as an album.
A selection of studio mics is available as well as DI boxes to ensure good quality tracking.
Contact me for details of the system and to discuss your needs.
