Course Overview
VENUE 110V: Live Sound Production I focuses on the essential skills required to operate a VENUE system in a live sound environment. This course covers system operation using both the VENUE D-Show software and a VENUE control surface. This course is designed for live sound students and engineers who have limited experience using a VENUE system. The course requires a basic knowledge of live sound principles. Advanced students and working professionals may want to combine this course with VENUE 210V.
Who Is This Course Aimed At?
This course is aimed at Live Sound Engineers wishing to learn the fundamental operation of Avid's Venue systems. It will not teach you how to become a Live Sound Engineer.
Prerequisites
This course explores the basic integration of a Pro Tools system with the AVID Venue system for Virtual Soundcheck. Though not a required prerequisite, a basic knowledge of Pro Tools would therefore be useful if you plan to use this feature on the road. If you are looking to quickly gain a thorough understanding of Pro Tools basics then we can recommend the following modules:
- Pro Tools 101: Introduction to Pro Tools
- Pro Tools 110: Essentials of Pro Tools
