Live Sound
and Stage

Laurie Raisc

I cannot say enough in regard to my enthusiastic recommendation of Dean Saunders. In the many festivals that I produced, if Dean was in charge of sound production – I had absolutely no worries that there would be any problems whatsoever. His expertise in unparalleled, his rapport with the musicians (who can be quite temperamental) was outstanding.

His pricing consistently was fair and affordable. He and his staff were always on time, and presented a professional appearance and demeanor. If an issue ever arose, Dean never got frustrated – he just handled it. On a personal level, he was always upbeat and positive, even with the stress of handling multiple stages simultaneously. He is a consummate professional. In my opinion, you can’t go wrong putting your trust in him and his staff.

On October 8, 2015 in Palm Springs was the first time I had even seen the KV2 VHD PA system. Don’t let the size fool you. Once we fired up the system for sound check it was clear that I wouldn’t have to jump through hoops for a good show. The KV2 VHD boxes provide a full, clear sound that I would expect from any of the major players. If you weren’t looking at the boxes, you would think there were several more.

During the show the system provided plenty of headroom and really nice separation. The vocals stayed on top easily without crowding and effects nuances were clear…while the overall mix had a nice drive and thump. Coverage was surprisingly even and power/drop alleys were minimal to the point of non-issue.

One of the better processed systems I have ever had the pleasure of using. I would gladly recommend and use this PA again. I’ve been mixing and touring for over 25 years. If you had told me 10 years ago this performance was available at this size I would have thought, it impossible.

Cat has been approachable, knowledgeable, professional, and just plain fun to work with! Before the show, he knew what questions to ask and expectations to set so that he could produce both a high quality sound for the audience/monitors but also capture a high quality recording of our show as he and I arranged. We were very happy with the results.

All our friends told us how much better we sounded than when they heard us in the past and many new listeners shared similar positive feedback about how much they enjoyed being able to hear everything. Cat was able to make good suggestions and also answer all our questions. I recognize how difficult it is to mic, mix and produce (yes, Cat even added some cool, appropriate effects to some of our set live, on the fly) at that level. As both a musician and an experienced sound engineer, Cat was more than up for the challenge of all our technical requirements. To boot, we had the same positive experience with Cat at Boeing on Friday and Saturday where we also performed! It was good to see a familiar face. We look forward too many more positive experiences with Cat and your team in the future.

Anyway, have a great week, Dean, we look forward to working with Live Sound and Stage again!
