Outdoor Event Sound

Sound behaves differently outdoors: there are no walls to reflect it, and wind and street noise get in the way. Outdoor sound needs to be planned with extra care.

What is different outdoors

  • Sound fades faster with distance.
  • Wind creates noise in microphones.
  • You need a power source close to the speakers.
  • Equipment must be protected from rain.

How we plan it

Send us the venue, expected number of guests and what should be heard: speech, music or live performance. We will suggest a set and speaker placement, and for a large outdoor event we will plan the amount of equipment together.
