Technology rentals in Santa Barbara
Conferences, executive retreats and university work, in a town where a lot of the good meeting space is historic and none of it was wired for a modern agenda.
About four hours — usually shipped, sometimes driven
Venues we deliver to here include Earl Warren Showgrounds and Santa Barbara City College conference space.
Beautiful rooms, difficult acoustics
Spanish-revival architecture, tile and high ceilings make for hard, reverberant rooms. Microphone choice and speaker placement decide whether a session is comfortable to sit through; volume alone 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’ll go wherever the job warrants it. Most work ships, because for most jobs that’s faster and cheaper than a van. Where a job is large, needs building on site, or has to be got exactly right, driving up makes more sense and we do. Tell us what the job is and we’ll tell you which one it should be.
