SETUP & EQUIPMENT

On gaining entry to the Client’s venue, Telford Karaoke & Disco require a minimum setup time of 1 hour, and the same amount of time to break the equipment down at the end of the Event. 

If Telford Karaoke & Disco is working alongside other booked entertainment (e.g. Singer, Comedian, Band etc) consideration must be made of workable space where Telford Karaoke & Disco’s setup will be.  Approximately 14 feet of stage space is required for a full set-up to include lighting. 

If Telford Karaoke & Disco is required to link its equipment with a fixed in-house audio system, (or with any mobile singer/band equipment,) and if Telford Karaoke & Disco considers it to be unsafe or liable to cause damage to Telford Karaoke & Disco equipment we reserve the right to refuse to do so.

SOUND LIMITING DEVICES

Should it be deemed necessary to do so, Telford Karaoke & Disco reserve the right to refuse to work in venue's which have sound limiting devices installed.  If such a device is fitted a smaller show is usually provided.  Once tripped, many sound limiters work by cutting the mains power supply to where the equipment is plugged in. A severe shut down as this could cause serious damage to computer based sound equipment, powered mixers, controlled lighting, amplification hardware etc. Alternatively, with venue management approval and established sound volume levels, power can be taken from an uninterrupted supply.
