INFORMATION

First Take is a full service sound reinforcement, stage lighting, and backline equipment rental company. We do not rent out gear cash and carry. All of our rental gear is for use on stages that we are covering sound and lighting for. Whether its a 4 channel powered mixer and microphone with a pinspot and mirror ball, or a 32 or 40 channel festival system with truss mounted par can lighting, followspots and backline stage gear, or anything in between, we have a system or can build one to suit your needs. We will deliver, set up and run it so you can be free to enjoy your event. Indoors or out, daytime or night, your stage or ours, we make your show look and sound just the way it should PROFESSIONAL.
