When it come to doing the Audio Production for Dancing School Reviews, no one has the experience that Rave Entertainment has earned over the past 12 years and hundreds of reviews.

We've worked with the area's biggest schools, some with over 500 students, and some of the smaller ones with as few as 35 students. Regardless of the size of production, we give each school and their students our very best.Our experience allows us give each teacher exactly what they want. Some are straight forward and just need their music recorded in order for the show. Others need their music's speed/pitch adjusted, their songs edited and/or spliced or complicated production numbers put together from several different sources. Regardless of their needs, at Rave Entertainment, we make sure to get it right every time. We record/edit our music via Sony Sound Forge and Acid to get all the cuts just right. Then make a master copy for the teacher to use at her studio to make sure all of our cuts are perfect, before it's show time. All edits are saved on hard disk in case a song needs to be tweaked.

All of our preparation makes recital day smooth and painless (at least as painless as can be expected!) We've worked in just about every venue in the city which holds dancing recitals and know what equipment works best in each one. We can provide basic playback, stage monitors, tap microphones, wired or wireless microphones for announcement and awards etc. We also have duplicate equipment on site and backup copies of the music, just in case.

Here are some pictures from 2008 recitals. First, rehearsal...

It's Showtime!

Some schools even perform specialty numbers with a live band instead of pre-recorded music. This is no problem for Rave Entertainment--we mic the band and mix live for both the audience and the dancers on stage!
