2 Live Sound Basic 2-Day PA Course
Learn how to jump onto a small P.A. This two-day course is suitable for anyone who needs or wants to do this and is not entirely sure how to go about it - from taking on some work with your friend’s band, to the teacher who needs to get the PA out of the cupboard a couple of times a year and make it work for the school panto and prize-giving day.
On our two-day course taught over two consecutive Saturday or Sundays, you will be taken through a simple P.A. System from A-Z in the first day and a half. The last afternoon is spent on practical hands-on practice including mixing using multi-track playback machines.
This short course is designed to help you set up a small P.A. system, use microphones, mix the sound and monitors from the same ‘Front of House’ digital mixing console and carry out basic fault –finding. It does not go deeply into the internal components of a system. It is about the basics of getting one going and driving it.
Course fee - £240 + VAT
Dates: Sunday 26th April, 2015 (1st session) & Sunday 3rd May 2015 (2nd session)
