Technology rentals in Santa Barbara
Conferences, executive retreats and university work, where much of the good meeting space is historic and was not wired for modern presentations.
About four hours, usually shipped, sometimes driven
13 rentals delivered or shipped to Santa Barbara since January 2023.
Venues we deliver to here include Earl Warren Showgrounds and Santa Barbara City College conference space.
Historic rooms and acoustics
Spanish-revival architecture, tile and high ceilings make for hard, reverberant rooms. The right microphones and speaker placement make a session comfortable to listen to. Turning up the volume makes it worse.
- Wireless mic sets with receivers and channel planning
- Powered speakers placed for coverage, not volume
- Screens on rolling stands where nothing can be mounted
- Laptops, clickers and every adapter a presenter brings
University and research events
Academic meetings bring poster sessions, concurrent breakouts and presenters with their own machines: the same shape as La Jolla, four hours further up the coast.
How it gets there
Four hours means most jobs ship, packed for handling with return labels in the box. We have driven it plenty of times for larger builds, and will say which makes sense for yours.
How we decide to ship or drive
We go wherever the job needs us. Most work ships, because for most jobs that’s faster and cheaper than a van. If a job is large, has to be built on site, or has to be set up exactly right, we drive it there. Tell us what the job is and we’ll tell you which one it should be.
Add equipment to your quote
Tell us what you need and a person replies within the hour during business hours. Nothing is booked until you say so.
