Arranging Performances and Audio Amplification at Musical Events
At Oberlin College, the Concert Sound department and event services play a significant role in enriching the campus community. The Concert Sound department, staffed by professional sound engineers and Oberlin students, is dedicated to delivering the highest quality audio and visual experience for a variety of events.
The department is responsible for providing sound, lights, and streaming services for over 400 events a year, in partnership with organizations and departments across campus. This includes large-scale events such as Drag Ball, Solarity, and the BHM Fashion Show, as well as smaller gatherings like panel discussions and athletic events.
Live sound reinforcement for bands, speakers, and other performances is another service offered by the Concert Sound department. They also provide technical support and equipment rental, although specific services may vary and should be confirmed with the college’s relevant departments.
If you're planning an event or meeting at Oberlin College, the process for requesting a space can be initiated through the "Request a Space" task on OberView. While spaces such as the Robert S. Lemle '75 and Roni Kohen-Lemle '76 Academic Commons in the Terrell Main Library can be reserved for meetings or events, the exact procedure for reserving other spaces may vary. It is advisable to reach out to Oberlin College’s event services or the relevant department directly for specific reservation steps.
In addition to the Concert Sound department, Oberlin College offers various spaces for meetings and events. For instance, the Academic Commons offers workstations, an electronic classroom, and multimedia stations, making it suitable for academic gatherings or events.
For detailed contact information or exact procedures, the official Oberlin College website or event services office would be the best source. The Concert Sound department looks forward to helping make your event great and is committed to partnering with the campus community to make events successful.
The Concert Sound department, in its commitment to the campus community, not only delivers top-notch audio and visual experiences for over 400 events annually but also collaborates with organizations and departments to provide technology-driven education and self-development opportunities through events like panel discussions and workshops. Moreover, event planners can leverage the department's services for live sound reinforcement, equipment rental, and technical support for meetings and occasions broadcasted online.
