PA / Sound Reinforcement
The purpose of a sound reinforcement system is to deliver your music to the audience with clarity and power. Whether you’re performing solo in an intimate setting or bringing it to a larger audience, we’ve got the gear you need to do it right.
The venue may be modest in size but your requirements for sound quality are high. QSC offers sound reinforcement products that will deliver studio-quality sound, compact size at an affordable price.
Volume levels are lower due to size of venue. Audio system is providing sound reinforcement for vocals and augmenting acoustic instruments. Drums, percussion, horns are not typically running through sound system.

Your live drums and onstage amps are able to cover the crowd but you need to project vocals and some solo instruments.
Due to larger room and the potential necessity of playing at volume levels for dancing, most but not all instruments are running through the main sound system. Kick drum may be miked, but bass amplifier and electric guitar amplifiers may not need to run through the sound system.
