Live Audio Engineer

Welcome to Western North Carolina’s Sound Service.

People and businesses are still being impacted by the horrifying appearance of Covid-19. My 42 years as a live sound engineer is also on hold. Although switching roles and working from home isn’t what I had in mind for 2020, there’s still the multi-track editing, mixing, and mastering. See original-recordings for more on that. Need PC support? With years of computer technical support I securely troubleshoot from a distance.

We deliver, set up, and operate small and medium sound reinforcement systems for area concerts, events, and Public Address. Alan Phillips is an experienced Audio Engineer with backgrounds in live sound, recording, electronics, and computer technical support. Areas of expertise include, however are not limited to acoustic music, Bluegrass, concerts, dances, graduations, music festivals, musical productions and sound design. I also provide sound for conferences, commencements, parties, amplified wedding vows, and wedding receptions. Of course a Sound Service technician will be there for the duration of the event.

Audio production with a compact sound system

When a line array system would be overkill… We provide self-powered floor standing speakers for indoor and outdoor events. Digital amplification and LED lighting minimize the equipment space and power needs compared to that of analog systems. Are you concerned about someone tripping over wires? Wireless audio mixing has evolved so every aspect of live audio is controlled from an iPad or other device. Therefore balanced sound is attainable from anywhere in the venue, and with no cables running into the audience.

When requested, up to 32 tracks live recording of the event may be mixed to stereo, then readied for download. Post production rates may apply.
