What Our Students Say:
Hi Howard,
Good day sir, how are you and your family, Since returning to Nigeria i cant wait to get my hands on the desk and insert some gates and compressors into my mix and also use the gates as triggers. I want you to know attending the course is the best thing that has ever happened to my career in sound engineering and it really has opened my eyes to a lot of new ideas.
I hope to come back for more eye opening courses with you.
Many thanks
Chuks (Nigeria)

"I spotted and went on the Base Sound live engineering course, and then followed it up with half a days training. It was great, just what I was looking for, very hands on. I recommend it to anyone. Thanks' I am very happy.
All the best!"
Geoff Thorne

Hi Howard
Just a quick note to thank Base Sound for an excellent course last week, from an enthusiastic and very knowledgeable host – I really enjoyed it. It certainly helped to fill in a lot of blanks left by the university studio courses and I hope I didn’t ask too many stupid questions, that may have taken us off course, so to speak.
Thanks again,
Keith Clark

"Just a quick note to say I had band practice last night and its the first chance I have had to put all my Basesound training to good use. The first thing one of the singers said was "Hey Jon what have you done to the PA? it sounds fantastic!" And I have to say it did sound really good"!

Thanks Howard, I'm really chuffed!

What Is a Live Sound Engineer?

A live sound engineer is someone who controls the mixing of the sound at a live event whether it be the smallest of pub gigs right through to a stadium size concert.
