Brief Introduction

Improve your professionalism and impress employers

Description

Justin Grealy has over thirty years experience in the rock and roll business, and has even had the verb "to greal" a stage coined after him - meaning to label and colour code a stage environment so that show-stopping mistakes are almost impossible to make.

This is an immensely practical course on how to make a rock and roll stage into an efficient, safe and pleasant working environment. You will need some experience on or around stages,understand basic signal flow in live sound - the difference between inputs and outputs, what satellite or sub boxes and monitors are - and that your job as a sound engineer is to provide a stage which makes it easy for the artist to perform.

The course consists of 16 videos which will take just over an hour to complete, but which will change your working life as a live sound engineer.
