PA Sound Mixer Engineer

So your entertainment act has become more established and now you require the services of a sound mixer engineer or technician. Lots of Perth venues have their own PA or sound system already installed and therefore all entertainment acts and bands don't need to supply or hire their own PA. In other situations the entertainment act or band will have to supply their own sound system or else hire someone like a PA company to bring their equipment and mix the sound. Hiring a PA company to do your sound can be expensive. Using the venues PA sound system is always going to be a cheaper option.
A good sound guy can definitely mean the difference between a good and bad performance. The band has put so much hard work into having a great sound but if the audience is hearing feedback throughout the performance the show could be a very difficult one to get through . If possible doing a good quality sound check before every performance will always help make the sound guys job allot easier.
