Sound Systems

A note about groups playing music for parties in rooms with installed sound systems:

  • Use the sound system’s channel volume and Master volume to adjust the volumes of the rooms TO A LOUD BUT COMFORTABLE LEVEL.
  • After making this adjustment do not turn up the volume any louder because music at overly loud volumes over an installed sound system:
    1. May disturb other nearby events,
    2. Will begin to sound like it’s breathing (and not sound right) because the compressor, limiter, and auto-mixing features of the sound system will be trying to do their job, and
    3. Can cause damage to the speakers and require them to be replaced. We need to not break things if we can help it.
