Event audio solutions: The Key to amazing sound at every event
Glastonbury 2023: Cyndi Lauper’s Set
One of the UK’s biggest festivals, Glastonbury 2023, faced unexpected sound issues during Cyndi Lauper’s highly anticipated return to the Pyramid Stage. Poor microphone levels and intermittent audio failures disrupted her set, frustrating both the live audience and event organisers. This serves as a stark reminder of the importance of professional event audio solutions.
Echoey Conference at a London Tech Event
In early 2024, a major London tech conference suffered from poor acoustic planning. The organisers failed to account for venue acoustics, leading to a distracting echo that made keynotes difficult to understand. This negatively impacted the event’s credibility – an issue that could have been avoided with a proper sound check and professional event audio solutions.
What Went wrong?
Both of these cases highlight a lack of professional event audio solutions. Common event sound system mistakes include:
- Incorrect microphone levels – leading to inaudible speech or overpowering audio.
- Poor speaker placement – causing uneven sound distribution.
- Failure to account for venue acoustics – leading to echo and reverberation issues.
- No backup equipment – resulting in audio dropouts with no quick fix.
These sound system failures are entirely preventable when working with experienced event audio professionals like Technical Stage Services (TSS).
