http://www.totallysound.com.au/news News Feed from Totally Sound en-us copyright 06/6/2010 720 http://www.totallysound.com.au/news/latest_news/totally_sound_successfully_completes_annual_accreditation_review/10 Totally Sound have been accredited with the Events Industry Association since September 2004.  Every year around this time, the lovely Cassandra Brennan heads down the highway to Bunbury to do our onsite survey. This review process no longer requires massive effort like it did initially, as we have reached a point where the crew are on board and policy and procedure updates and changes occur as required throughout the year.  It does however provide an opportunity to stop and take a look at your business, check how changes that have been made are working and review legislative compliance.      17/08/2010 http://www.totallysound.com.au/news/latest_news/totally_sound_annual_golf_challenge/9 Blustery weather was not going to stop the much anticipated Totally Sound annual golf challenge.  There had been much trash talk leading up to the big day, the day that would see another name on the Challenge Day plaque.  It was all a bit more upmarket this year.  Golf at the Dunsborough Lakes Golf Course followed by lunch at beautiful Caves House.  We also sorted a bit of a handicap so that the 'non golfers' amoungst us stood a fair chance at the title. After a brief stop for good coffee, it was off to Dunsborough Lakes.  The title is very appropriate, I think there were at least 5 balls swallowed up by the lakes during the day.  It was decided that we would tee off in two groups....those that could....and those that could not.  Funnily enough, those that could did not necessarily do so on the day!  Derek reigned supreme for the second year in a row.  Nat was not far behind, followed by a now somewhat subdued Damien.  Most improved on the day was young Ryan, who scored 23 on the first hole (par 4), but was doing very well for himself by the end of the game.  He is definately one to watch for next year. Then it was off to Caves House for some fab food and absolutely beautiful red wine in front of the fireplace.  The venue was very quiet when we arrived, but we soon changed that.  Especially after Kerry had had a few wines!  All in all a great day out for the team.  Let the rivalry begin for 2011!                Are we there yet?                                           Yes Ryan, it is a bit like a car!                               Really Kerry, any excuse!                    Apparently this is the "A" Team ? 14/04/2010 http://www.totallysound.com.au/news/latest_news/installation_at_settlers_tavern_in_margaret_river/8 As part of a complete refurbishment, Settler's Tavern in the main street of Margaret River made the decision to purchase an inhouse PA and lighting System.  The Totally Sound team were contracted to install a Turbosound Flex Array System consisting of 2 x TFA 600 Top Boxes and 1 x Double 18" sub per side.  The team also put in a Global Truss Arch over the stage to support the PA and the lighting. The lighing installed consists of 8 x Tricolour LED Par 64's.          17/03/2010 http://www.totallysound.com.au/news/latest_news/nannup_music_festival/7 Totally Sound was again contrated to provide production for six stages at the Nannup Music Festival.  The main stage, the amphitheatre, was an opportunity for us to trial the new Digidesign SC48 digital console, which Damien very quickly fell in love with.  Our new Turbosound Flex Array speaker system covered every seat in the house with crystal clear sound and we received many positive comments from artists, organsiers and festival goers about the quality of the sound. John Butler (in solo mode) charmed a packed amphitheatre with a really special, intimate performance as the headline act on the Saturday evening.  The combination of picturesque Nannup, beautiful balmy weather and fantastic entertainment meant for a rather exceptional experience over the long weekend.  17/03/2010 http://www.totallysound.com.au/news/latest_news/boyup_brook_country_music_festival/6 It was an extra special year for the organising committee of the Boyup Brook Country Music Festival.  Twenty Five years on and the event is stronger than ever.  Headlined by Tanya Kernigan and showcasing an impressive line up of country talent, the event encompassed the usual ute muster, dancing, music and the very popular Bush Poets Breakfast.  Totally Sound are proud to have had a long association with this iconic event and it was terrific for the team to be there on this special occasion. The event provided a great opportunity to fly the new Turbosound Flex Array System.  The crew plotted the site into the Ease Software and were impressed with how this related to the live site.  The results were exceptional. The team camped at the back of the stage and it has to be said that the camp setup has reached an all new level of sophistication.  Make no mistake these lads are not 'roughing' it. The camp is quite an elaborate arrangement complete with shower, and cooks (Kerry and Nat)!                                                                                                                                                                17/03/2010 http://www.totallysound.com.au/news/latest_news/work_skills_training__traineeships/4 Totally Sound have finally managed to set up a remote traineeship. Thanks to the efforts of the great people at Central TAFE we are now able to offer Work Skills Training or a Traineeship to juniors who join our team. Colin Keys who has been with us for a year and is showing a real flare for lighting has just signed up to do a Cert 111 in Music Industry (Technical Productions). This is a two year traineeship, but Colin will qualify for recognition of prior learning. Ryan Jackson our newest and youngest, has signed up for the full two years. Special thanks to Kim Siragusa, Elizabeth Bindon-bonney and Scott Adam from Central TAFE and the team at the Apprentice and Traineeship Company. 3/02/2010 http://www.totallysound.com.au/news/latest_news/turbosound_flex_array_system/2 The team at Totally Sound are excited to announce the arrival of their newest system - the Turbosound Flex Array System.
