Review Centre: Sound Engineers

"We booked Chris to provide equipment and manage all the sound for our Great Yorkshire Chorus Christmas choir concert. This was a big event with a choir of over 100 people and a large audience, he did a fantastic job for us. Leading up to the event we had regular contact with Chris, he made sure that everything was well organised and met what we needed on the day. On the day itself set up was all smooth and we had a great soundcheck with the choir where Chris got all the levels set just right so the choir could hear things well and there was a good balance for the audience. Chris also recorded the concert for us which was brilliant so we have that to keep and use in future. The recordings are excellent quality and he put a lot of work in post production for us to get them sounding spot on. Chris is very professional and easy to work with, which is hugely valuable to anyone running a large event who needs someone experienced and reliable. We'll definitely use Chris again and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him."

"Chris was very pro and set up a great sound system for our wedding (next to Huddersfield). First in the outdoor welcome area for the early stage and then after 10pm in the marquee for the disco part. Chris went above and beyond in making our event a success. Thank you!"

"The guys are amazing to work with! Nothing is too much trouble or a silly question. They go above and beyond and our first beer and music festival was a hit. I wouldn’t have wanted to use anyone else! From the beginning until even after the event the guys were incredible and the best! With so much to do, lighting and sound was something I didn’t have to worry about. Great communication coming from them without me having to go to them, a long time in advance. Highly recommend for everyone for great quality not only for sound and lighting but also for every other aspect like professionalism, friendliness, helpful, commitment, communication, knowledge…. Absolutely everything about these guys is 5*! Thank you so much guys!"

"Absolutely first class! Chris and Olly managed to transform our bare, run down marquee into an inviting, charming place for our Great Gatsby Ball. Chris worked alongside us helping with ideas and suggestions and was on hand for site visits and available to talk through the plans whenever we needed. Everyone who attended couldn't believe the transformation and amazing atmosphere all the lighting and sound helped to create. We will definitely be working with Core Events again in the future and couldn't recommend them highly enough."

"I hired Chris on a recommendation by a friend. It was quite a task I set him but he rose to the challenge with aplomb..The concert required constantly changing sound requirements for a series of artists playing throughout the evening, ranging from solo singer/guitarist to 7 piece bands..Seamless changeovers!The venue was no picnic( acoustically speaking )but he got a great sound without blowing anyone’s ears out..Very attentive throughout the evening as well.In short I would recommend this outfit to anyone.Well done."

"Lukas was extremely helpful in helping us set up our live sound for the band. We told him we struggled with feedback and getting volumes correct with our gigs. He come and helped us set up properly showed us step by step how to get rid of all the problems we were facing and answered any questions I had along the way. Overall very helpful. Our gigs have been great since. I would 100% recommend"

"Delighted by the service from James at Basement Hire. Wanted lights and sound for my wife's 60th birthday party in a local Tithe Barn and James sorted us out some brilliant kit and came and set up a splendid arrangement with the minimum of fuss and at a time to suit us. Ditto collection after the party. Very easy to deal with for pre order queries and advice and also kindly collected a mirror ball for us from another supplier. The farmer who owns the barn said it was the best party he'd seen there in the 5 years they'd been operating and this due in no small part to the lights and sound (and of course the partygoers!)."

"CFR DJ’d at our wedding and we couldnt fault it. From the first song to the last he had everyone dancing and thats exactly what we wanted. He remixed some of our requested songs and you could tell he was experienced and knew exactly what he was doing! We have had nothing but compliments from our guests, cant recommend him enough!"
