Setting up Sound System for Popular Bands: A Framework for the Department of Music Education, University of Education, Winneba

Setting up equipment for popular bands in the Department of Music Education, University of Education, Winneba is mostly characterized by complications such as feedback, humming and problematic monitor mix which affect the smooth performance of popular bands. These complications have been attributed to limited set-up and sound check processes by the sound engineers and this always affects performance start-up time and prevents smooth performance without hitches. Using the case study design, the study interviewed sound engineers, musicians, and members of the music administration to develop a framework for effective set-up and sound check within the limited time for popular band performance in the Department of Music Education, University of Education Winneba.
