Welcome to the home of the Theatre-Sound mailing list, in continuous operation since 1995!

The Theatre Sound mailing list is a forum for people who do audio for musical theatre or plays, concerts, worship services, etc.

This list is about LIVE THEATRE, not HOME THEATRE. Please do not post questions about home theatre here.

To help prevent spam on the list, the first message posted by a new member is held until it can be reviewed by a human (usually within 1 day).

When posting, please keep in mind that your email will go to nearly 1,800 people. Would a private message be more appropriate?
