Audio & Video Production
Brighton Racecourse Conference

When the Sussex Digital In-Reach Team needed AV support for the Sussex Partnerships in Care conference at Brighton Racecourse, spanning two separate rooms, they needed a partner who could manage audio and video in both spaces without a single dropped word. Andrew arrived a day ahead to set up and test, was back on-site early the next morning, and stayed through the event so any last-minute need was handled on the spot.

The standout touch: purpose-built noise-cancelling headphones that let attendees hear presenters clearly over the room’s natural acoustics — the kind of detail that turns a good conference into one people actually remember. Both rooms stayed perfectly in sync throughout, with Andrew running audio and video across the two spaces as one seamless event rather than two separate feeds.

The engineer who’s
been on stage

Most AV engineers have never performed. Andrew has — as a musician, a compère, a stage manager for world-class artists on the QE2, and Tour Manager for a BGT winner. That changes how he works.

01

Performer’s empathy

Having been on stage himself, Andrew knows what artists, speakers and hosts need to feel confident. He anticipates it — before they have to ask.

02

One engineer, fully accountable

Andrew quotes, sets up, operates and packs down every event personally. No handovers, no excuses on the day.

03

Last-minute bookings welcome

Things change. Andrew is used to working under pressure and will do everything possible to accommodate late or urgent bookings.

04

Transparent, fixed pricing

No surprises on invoice day. The quote you receive reflects exactly what you’ll pay — all day rates, all costs included upfront.

★★★★★

“Absolutely professional on every level! Andrew makes his job look easy, but I’ve no doubt his years of experience, meticulous planning and easy-going attitude all contribute to this. Thank you for supporting our very 1st conference. I hope our paths cross again soon.”

Kate Adams — Managing Director First conference event client

★★★★★

“Soundcheck AVS provided an imaginative solution to support the event we hosted in our Grade I listed building. Andrew’s personal attention gave our client confidence and helped make the event a well-received success.”
