A guide to booking

Hire Sound Engineers in Perth, Western Australia, Australia

A sound engineer takes responsibility for everything the audience actually hears: gain structure at the desk, monitor mixes the performers can work with, and a PA sized to the room rather than to the booking. Engineers in Perth, Western Australia, Australia know which venues have house systems worth using and which need a rig bringing in, which is usually the difference between a smooth get-in and a rushed one.

What a Sound Engineer Covers on the Day

A standard booking runs from get-in and rigging through line checks and soundcheck to the show itself, then the de-rig. Expect the engineer to ask for a stage plan and input list in advance, and to handle microphone placement, EQ and levels live rather than setting and leaving. For speech-led events the work is different again: radio mic management, feedback control and a clean feed for any recording or stream.

What Sound Engineers Cost

Rates for sound engineers in Perth run from $110 to $1,150+, with most bookings around $490. Channel count is the main driver, followed by the length of the day and whether the engineer supplies the PA or works on a system already in the room. A single speaker on a small PA sits at the bottom of that range; a full band with monitor mixes and a recording feed sits near the top.

Reviews of Sound Technicians / Engineers available in Perth, Western Australia, Australia

5/5 from 50 reviews
Photo of Lost Productions PDX Lost Productions PDX "Great service. David from Lost Productions was very responsive over the phone and knew enough to help me figure out exactly what we needed. The additional cost for setup assistance was well worth it as David took care of all the hardware and individually worked with my performers to make sure that they sounded perfect from anywhere in the venue. I will be using them again" David Culley Photo of ConquerMIH ConquerMIH "Amazing sound system, was audible every where, perfect music was played. My friends send off was amazing because of these guys. Thank you!" Mpho Mdlalose - Funeral Photo of Barrett Sound & Lighting Barrett Sound & Lighting "We had a birthday party for our son and one of his friends at our home in May. I had seen DJ Lachlan set up at another party last year and was really impressed with Lachlan’s professionalism. When it can to planning our party hiring DJ Lachlan was at the top of my list...and we were not disappointed! What amazing value for money! The equipment, lighting, smoke machine and music created a fantastic party atmosphere. The set up at the start and pack away at the end of the party by Lachlan and his team was so quick and efficient and all communications leading up to the party were followed up promptly. Thanks again, helping to make the party such a great night!" Pippa Photo of Phantom Production Design Ltd Phantom Production Design Ltd "Phantom was super professional from the beginning. Engaged in working with me and my partner to make our wedding spectacular. Their staff are very professional and very helpful. 10/10 on all accounts.
