Event sound: what to plan
Sound is more than speakers. You need a system sized for the venue, audience and schedule, plus a technician who tests it before the event.
What to include in your brief
- guest count and venue size
- microphones for speeches, MC or interpreters
- connections for DJs, bands and presentations
- monitors, mixer and on-site technician
- backup plan for power and cabling
Questions to ask suppliers
What is the difference between sound and event production?
Sound covers audio; event production may include stage, lighting, rigging and technical coordination.
