I recently was introduced online to Jerome Casinger of Ignite Sound & PA Rental out of Beavercreek, OH. Casinger recently moved to the area and is excited to share his skills with a whole new musical audience, so he contacted me to see if Music Connection could help him spread the word! For local musicians and bands looking for quality sound, here’s a little more about Ignite Sound:
What services do you provide? “We provide PA system Rental and Engineering, Sound System Design/Consultation, Professional Artist booking, and Event management.”

What size events can you handle? “We are a local event production company specializing in small to medium-sized events. We specialize in concert and music events but have a great deal of expertise in spoken word, grand openings, and other events. I can do pretty much everything that is a normal gig indoor or outdoor. Small street festivals, etc. ”
What makes your service different from other local sound companies? The difference between me and some of the other guys, from what I have been told, is the quality of my equipment. Its all higher end stuff, no carpeted speakers etc. All, QSC, EV, Yamaha DXR, and my mics are all the higher end as well, Sennheiser E609, Audix D Series for drums, etc. We also have LED lighting, and use a 32 channel digital mixer so we have all the processing that you can ask for in a band.”
What type of experience do you have and offer? “As for my experience, I have been doing this for 8 years officially. I was given a donation to start because of my “ears”. I can pick out frequencies very quickly and understand the science between sound systems. For example, sound guys that put subs on the outside under their speakers are actually creating dead spots. Sometimes it has to be that way, but they should be stacked in the center if the stage allows, and you will see this in any pro set up. I then began to get hired to work with national, regional, and local acts and started working as a promoter as well on the national level.”
How has Dayton treated you so far since you moved here? “So far Dayton has been good to me, I have had 4 or 5 gigs, and now I can hardly keep up with the phone calls! Guys have been recommending me, and I currently have a gig pending down in Cincinnati! I am excited to give back as a sound engineer with loads of experience and as a musician as well (www.facebook.com/winchestergraymusic).
