Rates for sound engineers in Sarasota run from $100 to $850+, with most bookings around $340. 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.

Photo of WC Sounds (event production services) WC Sounds (event production services) "Wesley is a pro. Never met him before and by the time the band got to the venue, everything was setup and ready to go. We did a quick sound check and the gig went off without a hitch. Sound and lighting rigs were Tour-grade; the show looked and sounded fantastic. Couldn’t recommend anyone higher tbh" Based in Sarasota, Florida Daniel Sovich - Private fund raiser (full band Production with sound and lights) Photo of Redrocket Productions Redrocket Productions "After our first time working with REDROCKET PRODUCTIONS we knew we would never use anyone else! They provide top of the line equipment, experience, and professionalism. They deliver MORE than promised. It puts our minds at ease knowing our national acts will be cared for, and their requests will be met. They arrive early, and are ready when we are. Thank you REDROCKET!
