Chukwuma Ozor (Chuks) from Nigeria
Chuks getting to grips with the Noise Gates at Base
Sound and behind the mixing desk back in
Nigeria.
It was a pleasure to enjoy the company of Mr
Chukwuma Ozor (Chuks) who flew all the way over
from Lagos in Nigeria to attend the Base Sound Pro
4 Day Live Sound Course in September 2011. Being
self taught Chuks had already sound engineered many
gigs and concerts throughout Nigeria and Africa.
Chuks had already operated a variety of high
quuality, professional live sound mixing desks
including models from Yamaha, Midas & Allen
& Heath but still felt he needed to improve his
own knowledge and understanding. Although we
started with some basic theory and engineering on
the first day, Chuks found he was learning new tips
and tricks from the start and by the end of the
course had progressed through to more advanced
sound engineering including Venue & System
Ringing Out, Noise Gate Triggering and Advanced
Compression. He is now looking to attend some
further one to one training in the future with us.
Now back in Nigeria he his working with Major sound and lighing equipment rental companies and getting to mix concerts to upto 50,000 people and was back behind the mixing desk and sound engineering a gig as soon as he landed.
When he returned to Nigeria Chuks wrote:
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
