About Sound Notes
This site started because of being trained in PA Systems, having to train others and trying to find a decent online resource where you could learn or ask stuff without having to feel like you needed to have a sound degree first.
There are some good resources out there (we link to them) but this is mainly about creating a simple guide together in one place which can be added to and reference other sources for when you want to go deeper.
Who is behind it?
Oh, and so you know we're not amazingly clever sound technicians, but we have been doing it as amateurs for a while (10+ years) in many different venues, systems and even continents and had positions of responsibility. Basically we've got the grasp of the basics but are happy to learn and be wrong.
In our day jobs we do web design, aeronautical engineering and other similarly techy things. This site is partly related to www.freshspring.co.uk, a non-profit website company though currently only in the borrowing of the design because it is simple and works (we also run it) but this project is run on personal time and finance.
Can I help?
If you really love what's on this site then we'd really appreciate a donation of your experience through the contact form, or by dropping comments on particular articles. Even better, sharing it with fellow sound people or through social media (use the 'share' thing at the bottom).
You could also give some finance towards the hosting costs as the ads and shop don't cover it all. There's a button on all pages and it helps us to spend more time on improving this site, but that's completely up to you of course.
